Important: When dismounting the plug cap, be careful not to remove the seal.
Operating the engine without the seal may cause the engine to overheat.
Important: When inserting the spark plug, first screw it in with your fingers,
and then tighten it with the help of a suitable plug spanner. Overtightening will
damage the cylinder and the piston
9.6 Gearbox
Apply multipurpose grease after every 25 hours of use.
9.7 Silencer (Fig. 11)
9.7.1 After 100 hours of use
Check to see if any oil or grease has worked its way in between the clutch lining and drum,
and if it has, wipe it away using oil-free and unleaded petrol
9.7.2 Maintenance before storage
Use a dry rag to wipe away any fuel which has been spilt onto the unit.
▪ Extract fuel from the tank and run the engine until it stops naturally.
▪ Remove the spark plug and put in 1-2cc of 2- stroke oil in the engine. Pull the starter rope
2-3 times, set the plug back, and stop it at the contraction position.
Apply anti-rust oil to the metal parts such as the throttle wire, etc., put the cover on the blade,
and keep it indoors to avoid exposing it to dampness.
10 CLEANING
▪ Use a damp cloth to clean the plastic parts.
▪ Do not use any detergents, solvents or pointed objects.
11 STORAGE
So that the hedge trimmer will work again after a long period of inactivity, you should
observe the following points:
▪ Empty the petrol tank. To do this, start the engine and let it run until it reaches a standstill.
Dispose of the remaining petrol in an environmentally friendly way.
▪ Let the engine cool and take out the spark plug.
▪ Pour a small spoonful of 2-stroke mixture into the spark plug opening and slowly pull the
starter cord right through to the end several times. This gets rid of small deposits of rust
and lubricates the piston and cylinder.
▪ Check the spark plug and replace it if too much of the firing tip has been burnt off.
▪ Keep the blade in a dry place – out of the reach of fire.
12 STARTING UP AFTER LONGER PERIODS OF INACTIVITY
▪ Remove the spark plug.
▪ Quickly pull the starter cord right through several times in order to remove oil and deposits
in the engine compartment.
▪ Check the spark plug, replace it if necessary and screw it in.
▪ Fill the petrol tank with the 2-stroke mixture.
