Locking nut
•
Protect your hand from
injury when assembling,
use the blade guard as
protection when tightening
with a socket spanner.
Tighten the nut by turning
against the direction of
rotation. Loosen the nut by
turning in the direction of
rotation. (NOTE! the nut
has a left-hand thread).
•
Generally smaller machines require a small trimmer head
and vice versa. This is because when clearing using a cord
the engine must throw out the cord radially from the
trimmer head and also meet resistance from the grass being
cleared.
•
The length of the cord is also important. A longer cord
requires greater engine power than a shorter cord of the
same diameter.
•
•
Make sure the knife positioned on the trimmer guard is
intact. This is used to cut the cord to the correct length.
•
Tighten the nut using a
socket spanner, 35 - 50
Nm (3.5 - 5 kpm).
To increase the life of the cord it can be soaked in water for
a few days. This will make the line tougher and it will keep
longer.
NOTE!
The locking nut‘s nylon lock must not be so worn that it can
be turned by hand. The lock shall hold at least 1.5 Nm. The
nut should be replaced after it has been put on approx. 10
times.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Always ensure the trimmer cord is wound tightly
and evenly around the drum, otherwise harmful
vibrations will occur.
!
WARNING!
Never use a machine with defective
safety equipment. The safety equipment
should be maintained as described in this
section. If your machine does not meet
any of these controls you should contact
your service workshop.
!
WARNING!
Always stop the engine before starting
work on any part of the cutting equipment.
This continues to rotate even after the
throttle has been released. Ensure that the
cutting equipment has stopped completely
and remove the cable from the spark plug
before you start to work on it.
