TRANSPORTING
BEFORE
LOADING
If
the engine has been running, allow it to cool for
at least
15
minutes before loading the trimmer on
the transport vehicle. A hot engine and exhaust
system can burn you and can ignite some
materials.
Always turn the ignition switch to the
OFF
position. Make sure the fuel cap is securely
tightened.
LOADING
The trimmer may be secured by suitable clamps,
hangers or straps. Secure the trimmer by at least
two points along the drive shaft tube. Avoid
securing the trimmer by the engine, cutting head/
gearbox or handle area. The trimmer should be
secured in a horizontal position, with the engine
upright as shown.
Don’t hang the trimmer by the gearbox or cutting
head, or they may be damaged.
