the machine.
Check that the harness straps are correctly positioned.
Once the harness and machine have been adjusted,
check that the harness quick release works correctly.
If the muffler on your machine is fitted with a spark
arrestor screen this must be cleaned regularly. A blocked
screen will cause the engine to overheat and may lead to
serious damage.
Muffler
The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum
and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user.A muffler
fitted with a catalytic converter is also designed to reduce
harmful exhaust gases.
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic
converters get very hot during use and
remain so for some time after stopping.
This also applies at idle speed. Contact
can result in burns to the skin.
!
Remember the risk of fire!
In countries that have a warm and dry climate there is a
significant risk of fire.We therefore fit certain mufflers with
a spark arrestor screen. Check whether the muffler on
your machine is fitted with this kind of screen.
!
!
WARNING! The inside of the muffler
contain chemicals that may be
carcinogenic. Avoid contact with these
elements in the event of a damaged
muffler.
WARNING! Bear in mind that:
The exhaust fumes from the engine are
hot and may contain sparks which can
start a fire. Never start the machine
indoors or near combustible material!
Locking nut
For mufflers it is very important that you follow the
instructions on checking, maintaining and servicing your
machine.
A locking nut is used to secure some types of cutting
attachment.
Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.
When fitting, tighten the nut in the opposite direction to the
direction of rotation of the cutting attachment. To remove
it, undo the nut in the same direction as the cutting
attachment rotates. (CAUTION! The nut has a left-hand
thread.) When loosening and tightening the saw blade
nut, there is a risk of injury from the teeth of the saw blade.
You should therefore always ensure that your hand is
shielded by the blade guard when doing this. Always use
a socket spanner with a shaft that is long enough to allow
this.The arrow in the diagram shows the area where you
