5.1.6 Fitting/Replacing the line spool
The procedure for fi tting the line spool is shown in
Figures 7c-7d. To dismantle, proceed in reverse
order.
Look for the hole in the carrier plate, line up with
the notch beneath it, lock with the supplied Allen
key (28), and screw the line spool onto the thread.
Important: Left-hand thread
5.2 Setting the cutting height
•
Fit the carrying strap as shown in Figures 8a-
8c.
•
Hook the equipment to the carrying belt (Fig.
8d).
•
Adjust the perfect working and cutting posi-
tion using the various strap adjusters on the
carrying strap (Fig. 8e).
•
In order to establish the optimum length of
the carrying strap, you should then make a
few swinging movements without starting the
engine (Fig. 9a).
The carrying strap is fi tted with a quick-release
mechanism. Pull the red strap section (Fig. 8f) if
you need to remove the strap quickly.
Important: Always use the strap when working
with the equipment. Attach the strap as soon as
you have started the engine and it is running in
idle mode. Switch off the engine before you take
off the carrying strap.

That there are no leaks in the fuel system.
•
That the equipment is in perfect condition and
that the safety devices and cutting devices
are complete.

mended mixing ratio of 100:1. The manufacturer’s
warranty will be voided in case of engine damage
due to inadequate lubrication.
Important: Only use containers designed and ap-
proved for the purpose to transport and store fuel.
Pour the correct quantities of petrol and 2-stroke
oil into the mixing bottle (see scale printed on the
bottle). Then shake the bottle well.
