6.4.4.1 Precautionary measures against kickback
Caution kickback!

  • Watch out for kick-back when working with the device. There is a danger of injury.
    Avoid kick-backs through caution and correct sawing technique.
    Touching with the tip of the guide bar can sometimes lead to an unexpected backward reaction, whereby the guide bar whips up and in the direction of the operator.

Sawing in the marked area of the sword should be avoided to prevent kickback.
Kickback can arise if the tip of the guide rail touches an object or if the wood bends and the saw chain jams in the cut.

The jamming of the saw chain on the upper edge of the guide rail can force the bar backwards in the direction of the operator.
Each of these reactions can lead to you losing control of the saw and possibly suffering a serious injury. Never rely solely on the safety equipment integrated in the chainsaw.
As a chainsaw user, take various measures to work without accidents and injuries. Kickback is the result misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions.
It can be prevented by suitable precautionary measures, as described in the following:

  • Hold the saw firmly with both hands, with the thumbs and fingers enclosing the chainsaw handles. Bring your body and arms into a position in which you can absorb the kickback forces. If suitable measures are implemented, the operator will be able to withstand the kickback forces. Never let go of the chainsaw.
  • Avoid an unusual body stance and never saw above shoulder height. This will help to avoid unintentional contact with the rail tip, and enable improved control of the chainsaw in unexpected situations.
  • Always use replacement guide rails and saw chains prescribed by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement guide bars and saw chains may cause the saw chain to break and/or lead to kickback.
  • Adhere to the instructions of the manufacturer when sharpening and maintaining the saw chain. If the depth limiter is too low, this increases the tendency towards kickback.
  • Do not saw with the tip of the guide bar. There is a risk of kickback.
  • There is a risk of kickback.
  • Make sure that there are no objects on the floor that you can trip over.
  • Remove branches in sections.
  • Warning! Be careful with hazardous work positions.

6.5 Residual risks
Even with correct use and compliance with all safety regulations, some non- obvious residual risks may still remain.

  • Cutting injuries
  • Hearing damage
  • Staying in the immediate vicinity of the running device for a longer period of time may cause hearing damage. Wear hearing protection!
  • Damage to health resulting from hand/arm vibration if the device is used over an extended period of time or if it is not properly operated and maintained.
  • Vibration dampening systems do not guarantee protection against Raynaud syndrome or carpal tunnel syndrome. For this reason, the condition of the fingers and the wrist must be thoroughly monitored in case of regular, continuous use of the device. If symptoms of the illnesses indicated above occur, contact a doctor immediately. To reduce the risk of “Raynaud syndrome”, keep your hands warm while working and take breaks at regular intervals.
  • Despite observing the operating manual, there may also be residual risks that are not obvious.
  • In the event of a saw chain blockage, switch the device off immediately and pull out the spark plug connector. Remove the object afterwards.

Keep the noise level and vibration to a minimum!

  • Only use devices which are free of defects.
  • Maintain and clean the device at regular intervals.
  • Adapt your working methods to the device.
  • Do not overload the device.
  • Have the device checked if necessary.
  • Switch the device off if it is not in use.
  • Wear gloves.

Warning!
In case of extended working periods, the operating personnel may suffer circulatory disturbances in their hands (vibration white finger) due to vibrations. Raynaud‘s syndrome is a vascular disease that causes the small blood vessels on the fingers and toes to cramp in spasms. The affected areas are no longer supplied with sufficient blood and therefore appear extremely pale. The frequent use of vibrating devices can cause nerve damage in people whose circulation is impaired (e.g. smokers, diabetics). If you notice unusual adverse effects, stop working immediately and seek medical advice. Observe the following information to reduce hazards:

  • Keep your body and especially your hands warm in cold weather.
  • Take regular breaks and move your hands to promote circulation.
  • Ensure as little vibration as possible at the machine via regular maintenance and stable parts on the device.

Before commissioning

  • Open the packaging and carefully remove the device.
  • Remove the packaging material, as well as the packaging and transport safety devices (if present).
  • Check whether the scope of delivery is complete.
  • Check the device and accessory parts for transport damage.
  • If possible, keep the packaging until the expiry of the warranty period.

DANGER
The device and the packaging are not children‘s toys! Do not let children play with plastic bags, films or small parts!
There is a danger of choking or suffocating!

Before each commissioning, check the device for the following:

  • Check the fuel system for leakage.
  • Faultless condition and completeness of the guards and the cutting device.
  • Tight fit of all screw connections.
  • Smooth running of all moving parts.

Fuel and oil

  • Recommended fuels
    – Use only a mixture of unleaded petrol and special 2-stroke engine oil. Mix the fuel mixture as per the fuel mixing table.
    – Do not use E10 fuel.

Attention:
Do not use a fuel mixture that has been stored for more than 90 days.
Attention:
Do not use 2-stroke oil that recommends a mixing ratio of 100:1. The engine guarantee of the manufacturer becomes invalid in the event of damage to the engine due to insufficient lubrication.

Attention:
Use only designated and approved vessels for the transport and storage of fuel. Put the correct amount of petrol and 2-stroke oil into the enclosed oil- petrol mixing bottle (36). Then shake the vessel well.
Never use oil for 4-stroke engines or water-cooled 2-stroke engines. This can cause the spark plug to become fouled, the exhaust part to become blocked or the piston ring to become stuck. Fuel mixtures that have not been used for one month or longer can clog the carburettor or impair engine operation. Put unused fuel in an airtight vessel and store it in a dark, cool room.

Fuel mixing table
Mixing process: 40 parts petrol to 1 part oil
Example:
1 l petrol: 0.025 l 2-stroke oil
5 l petrol: 0.125 l 2-stroke oil

Warning! Pay attention to the exhaust gases.
Always switch off the engine before refuelling.
Never add petrol to the device while the engine is running or it is hot.
There is a risk of fire!
Only fuel the unit outdoors or in well-ventilated rooms. Make sure that no fuel gets into the soil (environmental protection). Use a suitable surface.

9.4.1 Installing the blade (32) and the saw chain (31) (Fig. 8, 9, 10)

  • Remove the chain cover (53) by loosening the blade fixing nut (30).
  • Screw the chain tensioning screw (55) carefully up to the stop to the left. This makes it easier to insert the blade (32).
  • The saw chain (31) is placed in the circumferential groove of the blade (32).
  • Place the blade (32) with the inserted saw chain (32) into the holder for the pole-mounted pruner (26). (Fig. 9)
  • Pay attention to the alignment of the chain teeth (Fig. 9).
  • Guide the saw chain (31) around the chain wheel (54). Make sure that the teeth of the saw chain (31) grip securely into the chain wheel (54).
  • Insert the cutter bar (32) as shown in fig. 9 into the mount at the gear unit. The cutter bar (32) must be hooked into the chain tensioning bolt (55a).
  • Refit the chain cover (53) and the blade fixing nut (30).

Attention!
Only fully tighten the blade fixing nut (30) after the chain tension has been adjusted (see section 9.4.2 “Tensioning the saw chain”).

9.4.2 Tensioning the saw chain (31) (Fig. 10)

  • Loosen the blade fixing nut (30) for the chain cover (53) a few turns.
  • Adjust the chain tension with the chain tensioning screw (55). Turning the screw clockwise increases the chain tension, turning it coun- terclockwise decreases the chain tension. The saw chain (31) is ten- sioned correctly when it can be lifted approx. 2 mm in the centre of the blade (32).
  • Retighten the blade fixing nut (30) for the chain cover (53).
  • Attention! All chain links of the saw chain (31) must sit properly in the guide nut of the blade (32).

Notes about tensioning the saw chain (31):
The saw chain (31) must be tensioned correctly in order to guarantee safe operation. You can identify the optimal tension when the saw chain (31) can be lifted approx. 2 mm in the centre of the blade (32). During cutting, the temperature of the chain (31) rises and its length changes. It is therefore important to check the chain tension at least every 10 minutes and to adjust it again as required. This particularly applies to new saw chains. Slacken the saw chain (31) after work is complete because it shortens after cooling down. This prevents the saw chain (31) from getting damaged.

9.4.3 Filling the automatic saw chain lubrication (Fig. 10)
It is recommended to use standard bio saw chain oil.

  • Remove the oil tank cover (56) from the oil tank (29).
  • Fill the oil tank (Fig. 29) up to the MAX marking with saw chain oil.

Operation

Never operate the engine drive unit (1) without the brush cutter / grass trimmer (12), hedge trimmer (17) or pole pruner (26).
11.1 Starting the device
Do not start the device until you have fully assembled it.

Risk of injury!
Only start the petrol combination device when a cutting device is connected! Remove the corresponding transport protection and inspect the device to ensure that its  operating status is good.
Never use a cutting device that is damaged, poorly  adjusted ormaintained, or not fullymounted and secured.

Check before use!
Check that the device is in a safe condition:

  • Check the device for leaks.
  • Check the device for visible damage.
  • Check that all parts of the device are securely attached.
  • Check that all safety devices are in good condition and functional.

11.1.1 Starting (Fig. 1, 15)
Once the device is properly assembled, start the engine as follows:

Starting the engine when cold:

  1. Press the on/off switch (3) to the on position “I”.
  2. Turn the choke lever (60) to the position. .
  3. Press the fuel pump (61) 7 times.
  4. Pull the handle of the starter cable (7) 3 to 5 times to start the motor. ATTENTION! Never put a foot on the engine drive unit (1) or kneel on it.
  5. When the engine is running, wait a moment and then briefly rev up using the throttle (9). The choke lever (60) automatically moves to the position .
  6. To start the cutting device, press the switch lock (4) with the palm and the throttle with the fingers (9). The further you push the throttle lever, the higher the engine speed. Loosening the throttle grip brings the engine back into idling and the cutting tool stops. The cutting tool must not rotate or move while idle!
  7. If problems occur, switch the on/off switch (3) to “0” immediately so that the motor stops. Attention! The cutting device can keep turning for a few seconds.

Starting the engine when warm

  1. To start the motor when warm, move the choke lever to the “Warm start and working” position.
  2. Pull the handle of the starter cable (7) 3 to 5 times to start the motor.
    ATTENTION! Never put a foot on the engine drive unit (1) or kneel on it.

Note:
If the motor does not start up after several attempts, see the ‘Troubleshooting’ section.

Note:
Always pull the start pull cord out straight. If it is pulled out at an angle, friction will occur on the lug. This friction causes the cord to wear through and wear out faster. Always hold the starter handle when the cord retracts. Never let the cord snap back from its extended state.

Note:
Do not start the engine in tall grass.
Do not start the engine if the device is hooked into the carrying strap (35).

Attention
In an emergency, the safety tab (b) on the carrying strap (35) can be pulled. The machine then immediately detaches from the carrying strap (35) and falls to the floor

Attention!
Use this work technique with particular care. The greater the distance between the cutting tool and the ground, the greater the danger that the material to be cut and foreign objects will be thrown to the side.

11.1.2 Shutting the engine off

  1. Press the on/off switch (3) to the off position “0”.
  2. Wait until the engine has come to a standstill before setting the device down.

Working instructions

ATTENTION:
Only hold the tool by the insulated gripping surfaces, because the cutting blade can come into contact with concealed power lines. If the cutting blade comes into contact  with an energised line, device parts can become energised and cause an electric shock.

12.1 Working with the brush cutter / grass trimmer (12)
When working with the brush cutter / grass trimmer (12), the brush cutter / grass trimmer shield (14) for the blade and thread operation must be mounted in order to  prevent objects being ejected.
The brush cutter / grass trimmer shield cutting blade (14a) in the brush cutter / grass trimmer shield (14) automatically cuts the thread to the optimum length. (Fig. 7)

12.1.1 Mowing with the brush cutter (12)

  • With the device switched off, first familiarise yourself with the operation and guidance if you are working with a brush cutter (12) for the first time.
  • The brush cutter (12) is designed so that it is operated solely from the right-hand side of the operator.
  • Always hold the brush cutter (12) tightly with both hands on the rear handle (5) and front handle (10).
  • Hold the rear handle (5) with your right hand and the front handle (10) with your left hand.
  • Always make sure that the cutting tool continues to rotate briefly after the throttle has been released.
  • Always ensure that the engine is idling properly so that the cutting tool no longer rotates when the throttle (9) is not pressed.
  • Always work with high speed so you have the best cutting results.
  • Move the device with a uniform curved movement from left to right and back again. Then cut the next section. (Fig. 16)
  • Attention: Always move the device back into the starting position before cutting the next path.
  • If you hit a stone or tree while working, switch off the engine and remove the spark plug connector (6). Check the brush cutter (12) for damage.
  • Attention: Always be particularly careful when working in difficult terrain and on slopes. Cut long grass in stages to ensure that the device is not overloaded. First cut the tips, then work your way up in stages.
  • Always wear protective goggles and hearing protection, and a hard hat when doing thinning work.
  • While using metal cutting tools, there is generally a risk of kickback, when the tool hits a solid obstacle (stones, trees, branches, etc.). The device is thrown back against the direction of rotation.
  • With wild growth and undergrowth, “immerse” the trimmer (12) from above. This chops the material to be cut.
  • Attention! The cutting blade (15) is still running! Do not stop the cutting blade (15) with your hand.
  • Keep the cutting blade (15) / cutting unit of the brush cutter (12) away from feet.

ATTENTION:
Use this work technique with particular care. The greater the distance between the cutting tool and the ground, the greater the danger that the material to be cut and foreign  objects will be thrown to the side.

12.1.2 Mowing with the grass trimmer

  • Use the thread coil (16) to get a clean cut even on uneven edges, fence posts, and trees.
  • Carefully advance the trimming line to an obstacle, and use the tip of the line to cut around the obstacle. When the trimming line comes into contact with stones, trees,  and walls, the line wears out or breaks off ahead of time.
  •  Never replace the plastic thread with a metal wire – danger of injury!

12.1.2.1 Automatic trimming thread (Fig. 17)

  • The grass trimmer is supplied with a filled thread coil (16).
  • This line will wear out during work.
  • So that new thread is fed in, press the trigger (16a) on the thread coil (16) firmly on the floor with the motor running.
  • The line is automatically fed due to centrifugal force. The line is cut to the correct length by the cutting blade on the shield (14a).

12.2 Working with the hedge trimmer (17)

  • The hedge trimmer is suitable for cutting hedges, bushes and shrubs.
  • Hold the hedge trimmer at a safe distance away from your body with two hands.
  • The maximal diameter to cut depends on the wood’s type, age, moisture and hardness.
  • Therefore cut very thick branches using branch shears to your desired length before trimming the hedge.
  • Thanks to the its double-sided cutting unit, the hedge trimmer can be moved forward and backward or from one side to the other swinging it back and forth.
  • Cut the sides of the hedges first and then the top edge.
  • Cut hedges from bottom to the top.
  • Cut the hedges in trapezium shape. This prevents the lower hedge area from becoming bare due to insufficient light.
  • Stretch a guide over the complete length of the hedge when you want to shorten the upper edge of the hedge evenly.
  • Trim in several passes if you have to cut down a large portion of the hedge.
  • Make sure to remove any foreign objects from the hedges (e.g. wire), since they may damage the blade of the hedge trimmer.
  • Attention! The blades are still running! Do not stop the blades with your hand.

The right time to cut:

  • Leaf hedge: June and October
  • Conifer hedge: April and August
  • Fast growing hedge: around every 6 weeks from May
    Pay attention to nesting birds in the hedge. Delay the hedge cut or leave this area out if this is the case.

12.2.1 Angle adjustment
The hedge trimmer (17) can be adjusted to the working conditions by swivelling the blade head (62) from +90° to -75°. (Fig. 19 and 20).

  • Attention! Only adjust with the engine switched off!
  • Press both unlocking levers (63) and adjust the blade head (62) into the required position. (Fig. 19 and 20)
  • Herefor, use the adjustment lever (19).
  • Release both levers (63) until they click into place in the notch.
  • Before use, check that the adjustment levers (63) have clicked into place properly.

Attention!
The blade head (62) with the cutting unit (20) must not be completely swivelled backwards parallel to the arm of the hedge trimmer (17)! Do not work with this setting under  any circumstances! This position is only used as a transport position.
Oil the blades and the angle adjustment each time before starting work, with environmentally friendly lubricant. Also oil the blade regularly while working.

Attention!
Only oil with the engine switched off!

Attention!
Incorrect use and misuse can damage the hedge trimmer and cause severe injuries due to thrown out parts.
To minimise the risk of accidents by using the cutting blade, take note of the following points:

  • Never cut shrubs or timbers with a diameter of more than 2cm.
  • Avoid contact with metal bodies, stones, etc.
  • Periodically check the cutting blade for damages. Never continue to use a damaged cutting blade.
  • When the cutting blade becomes apparently blunt, it must be sharpened by a qualified specialist. When the cutting blade is apparently out of balance, it must be replaced.

12.3 Working with the pole pruner (26)
12.3.1 Automatic saw chain lubrication – fine adjustment (Fig. 10).
Fill the oil tank (29) (see 9.4.3)!
The amount of oil can be reduced or increased with the adjusting screw (64).

  • Clockwise – the amount of oil is reduced (-)
  • Counterclockwise – the amount of oil is increased (+)

12.3.2 Checking the automatic saw chain lubrication

  • Always make sure the automatic oiler system is working properly.
  • Ensure that the oil tank is always filled (29).
  • During sawing work, the cutter bar (32) and the saw chain (31) must always be oiled sufficiently in order to reduce friction on the cutter bar (32).
  • The blade (32) and the saw chain (31) must never be without oil. If you use the saw dry or with too little oil, the cutting performance reduces, the service life of the blade (32) is reduced, the saw chain (31) becomes blunt quicker and the blade (32) wears a great deal due to overheating. You can see that there is too little oil if smoke is produced or the blade (32) or saw chain (31) discolours.
  • To check the saw chain lubrication, hold the chainsaw with the saw chain (31) over a sheet of paper and give it full throttle for a few seconds.
  • The oil quantity can be checked on the paper. The saw chain (31) must always fling a small amount of oil. After a few seconds, a light oil trail must be visible.

12.3.3 Precautionary measures for the sawing work
Never stand directly under the branch that you want to saw off! Possible risk of injury caused by falling branches and catapulting pieces of wood. In general, it is recommended to set the pole pruner (26) at an angle of 60° to the branch. Hold the device firmly with both hands during the cutting process and always ensure that you are in a balanced position and have secure footing.

  • Never try to use your tool with one hand. The loss of control of your tool can cause serious injury or death. Never work on a ladder, a tree branch or other unstable surfaces.
  • Do not saw strong branches in one cut, always in several steps.
  • Place the saw chain (31) on the branch to be cut.
  • Apply light pressure to move the device, but do not overload the engine.

Before cutting, clear the work area of obstructive branches and undergrowth. Then, keep the area clean, on which branches could fall after cutting and remove any obstacles there, if necessary. Always keep the work area clear, remove the cut branches immediately. Pay attention to your location, the wind direction and the possible felling direction of the branches. Be prepared for fallen branches to kick back. Place all other tools and devices at a safe distance from the branches to be cut, but not in the withdrawal area.

Always monitor the condition of the tree.

Look for rot and decay in the roots and branches. If they are rotten inside, they can break off and fall unexpectedly while cutting. Also watch out for broken and dead  branches that could come loose due to the vibrations and fall on you.

For very thick or tough branches, first make a small cut beneath the branch before working from top to bottom to prevent it breaking off.

Basic cutting technique

Heavy branches break off easily when sawing and long strips of bark break off from the trunk which causes lasting damage to the tree. You can significantly reduce this risk  with the following cutting technique:

  • First saw the branch about 10 cm away from the trunk on the underside of the branch.
  • Make another cut about 15 cm to the trunk from above.
  • Keep sawing until the branch breaks off. There is now no longer a risk of damaging the bark on the trunk.
  • Finally, remove the remaining branch stump with a clean cut from above along the trunk.
  • To keep the damage to the tree to a minimum, we also recommend sealing the cutting area with grafting wax.

Dangers from reactive forces
Reactive forces occur during the operation of the saw chain (31). The forces that are to be applied to the wood act against the operator. They occur when the moving saw  chain (31) comes into contact with a solid object such as a branch or is jammed. These forces can lead to a loss of control and injuries.
Understanding how these forces occur can help you avoid the moment of shock and loss of control.
This saw is designed so that the kick-back effects are not as noticeable as with conventional chainsaws.
Nevertheless, always make Container you have a firm grip and secure footing so that you can keep control of the tool in case of doubt.

The most common effects are:

  • Kick-back
  • Recoil
  • Kick-back

Kick-back
Kick-back can occur if the running saw chain (31) strikes a solid object on the upper quarter of the blade (32) or becomes jammed.
The cutting force of the saw chain (31) exerts a rotational force on the saw in the opposite direction to the saw chain movement. This leads to Jan upward movement of the blade (32).

Avoid kickback The best protection is to avoid situations that lead to kickbacks.

  • Always keep an eye on the position of the upper guide rail.
  • Never let this point come into contact with an object. Do not cut anything with it. Be particularly careful in the vicinity of wire fences and when cutting small, hard branches that can jam the saw chain (31) easily.
  • Only cut one branch at a time.

Kick-back
Retraction occurs when the saw chain (31) suddenly becomes stuck on the underside of the blade because it is jammed or hits a foreign object in the wood. The saw chain (31) then pulls the saw forwards. Retraction often occurs when the saw chain (31) is not running at full speed when it comes into contact with the wood.

Avoiding retraction
Be aware of the forces and situations that can lead to the saw chain (31) becoming jammed on the underside of the blade (32). Always start cutting with the saw chain (31) running at full speed.

Recoil
Recoil occurs when the saw chain (31) suddenly becomes stuck on the top of the blade because it is jammed or hits a foreign object in the wood.The saw chain (31) can then suddenly push the saw towards the operator.Recoil often occurs when the top of the blade is being used for cutting.

Avoiding recoil
Be aware of the forces and situations that can lead to the saw chain (31) becoming jammed on the top of the blade. Do not cut more than one branch at a time. Do not tilt  the blade (32) to the side when pulling it out of a cutting slit, as this could jam the saw chain (31).

Transport (Fig. 2/3)

If you want to transport the device, empty the fuel tank (see 10.3.1).

Clean coarse dirt from the device using a brush or a hand brush.

Always attach the protective cover (15a, 21 and 34) to the cutters when not in use, during transport or storage.

The device must be secured against tipping and slipping during transport in vehicles in order to prevent damage and injuries.

Maintenance

ATTENTION:
Always wear protective gloves during all work on and around the cutting tools.
Always attach the protective cover (21 and 34) to the cutters when not in use, during transport or storage.
Always shut the engine down and remove the spark plug connector (6) before carrying out any maintenance and cleaning work.

  • Do not spray the device with water. This damages the engine.
  • Clean the device with a cloth, hand brush, etc.
  • Use a damp cloth to clean the plastic parts. Do not use cleaning agents, solvents or sharp objects.
  • When using the trimmer / grass trimmer (12), for technical reasons wet grass and weeds wrap around the drive axle beneath the shield (14) while working. Remove this,  otherwise the engine will overheat due to excessive friction. (Fig. 18)

Clean and maintain the device before storing it.
14.1 Regular checks
Note that the following information relates to normal use.
Under certain circumstances (longer daily work, heavy levels of dust, etc.), shorten the intervals specified accordingly.
Before starting work, after filling the tank, after an impact or if dropped:

  • Check the cutting tools for firm seating, general visual inspection for cracks and damage.
  • Replace damaged or blunt cutting tools immediately, even with hairline cracks.
  • Sharpen the cutting tools (also if necessary).

Weekly check:

  • Gear lubrication (also if necessary).

If necessary:

  • Tighten the accessible fastening screws and nuts.

Excessive wear and damage to the device can be prevented if the specifications in this user manual are adhered to.

14.2 Maintaining the engine drive unit (1)
14.2.1 Replace and clean the spark plug (Fig. 21)
Check the electrode gap of the spark plug (70) at least once a year or regularly if starting is poor.
The correct distance between the ignition flag and ignition contact is 0.7 mm.

  • Wait until the engine has cooled down completely.
  • Remove the spark plug connector (6) from the spark plug (70).
  • Unscrew the spark plug (70) with the supplied spark plug wrench (39).
  • If the electrode is worn excessively or if it is very encrusted the spark plug (70) must be replaced with one of the same type.
  • Heavy incrustation on the spark plug (70) can be caused by: Too high a proportion of oil in the petrol mixture, poor oil quality, outdated petrol mixture, or blocked air  filter.
  • Screw the spark plug (70) into the thread completely by hand. Avoid tilting the spark plug (70).
  • Tighten the spark plug (70) with the supplied spark plug wrench (39).
  • When using a torque wrench, the tightening torque is 12-15 Nm.
  • Push the spark plug connector (6) back onto the spark plug (70) properly.

14.2.2 Clean the air filter (Fig. 22)
Fouled air filters diminish the engine output due to reduced air supply to the carburettor. Dust and pollen clog the pores of the foam insert (73).
Regular inspection is therefore essential.

  • Loosen the air filter retaining screw (72).
  • Tighten the air filter cover (71).
  • Remove the foam insert (73).
  • Replace the air filter cover (71) so that nothing falls into the air duct.
  • Clean the foam insert (73) by knocking out or blowing out with compressed air.
  • Re-install the foam insert (73) in reverse order.

Never clean the air filter with petrol or inflammable cleaning agents.
In order to prolong the service life of the engine, a damaged air filter must be replaced immediately.

Warning!
Never leave the engine running if the air filter element is not inserted.
14.2.3 Adjusting the carburettor
If the idle speed is too high or too low, the carburettor must be adjusted.
Only have qualified personnel carry out carburettor adjustments!
14.3 Maintenance of the trimmer / grass trimmer (12)
14.3.1 Replacement of the thread coil/cutting thread (Fig. 23-26)

  • Dismantle the thread coil (16) from the brush cutter / grass trimmer (12).
  • Pull the coil cover (65) off the thread coil (16) by firmly pressing the retaining lugs (66) (Fig. 23).
  • Remove the thread holder (67) with the thread remnants.
  • Take the new thread holder and pull out 10 cm of both threads.
  • Now place the thread holder (67) on the conical pointed spring and guide both threads through the eyelets (68) on the thread coil (16).
  • Now place the coil cover (65) on the new thread coil. Turn it so that the recesses in the coil cover (65) align with the eyelets (68) of the thread coil (16).
  • Now press the thread cover (65) together with the thread holder (67) until it engages in the thread coil (16).
  • The cutting blade (14a) in the shield (14) shortens the thread to the correct length when the machine starts up again.

Alternatively, just the thread can be replaced:

  • Dismantle the thread coil (16) from the brush cutter / grass trimmer (12).

  • Pull the coil cover (65) off the thread coil (16) by firmly pressing the retaining lugs (66) (Fig. 23).

  • Remove the thread holder (67) with the thread remnants.

  • Remove the thread remnants from the thread holder (67).

  • Take a new thread in the middle and hook it to the retaining lug (c) of the thread holder (67) (Fig. 25)

  • Wrap the new thread on the thread holder (67) as shown in Fig. 26.
    The end of the thread must protrude approx. 10 cm.

  • Now place the thread holder (67) on the conical pointed spring and guide both threads through the eyelets (68) on the thread coil (16).

  • Now place the coil cover (65) on the thread coil (16). Turn it so that the recesses in the coil cover (65) align with the eyelets (68) of the thread coil (16).

  • Now press the thread cover (65) together with the thread holder (67) until it engages in the thread coil (16).

  • The cutting blade (14a) in the shield (14) shortens the thread to the correct length when the machine starts up again.

14.3.2 Grinding the cutting blade (14a) (Fig. 7)
The cutting blade (14a) can become blunt over time.

  • If you notice this, loosen the screws securing the cutting blade (14a) to the shield (14).
  • Then fasten the cutting blade (14a) in a vice.
  • Grind the cutting edge of the cutting blade (14a) using a flat file and make sure to maintain the angle of the cutting edge.
  • Important! Replace the cutting blade (14a) in the shield (14).
    Replace or sharpen the cutting blade (14a) at the end of each mowing season or as needed.

14.3.3 Grinding the cutting blade (15)
If the blades become slightly dull, you can sharpen them yourself.

  • Fasten the cutting blade (15) in a vice.
  • Grind all 3 blades of the cutting blade (15) using a flat file and make sure to maintain the angle of the cutting edge. (~25°) Only file in one direction.
  • The cutting blade (15) must be replaced after sharpening them five times at the latest.
    Replace the cutting blade (15) if the cutting edge is heavily worn or broken.
    The trimmer may vibrate strongly if the cutting blade (15) is not balanced.
    Thus there is a danger of injury!

14.3.4 Lubricating the brushcutter / grass trimmer (12) (Fig. 27)
Treat with lithium-based grease. Remove the screw (69) and put in the grease, turn the shaft manually until the grease comes out Then refit the screw (69).
Attention! Top up with only a little grease. Under no circumstances overfill.

14.4 Maintenance of the hedge trimmer (17)
14.4.1 Lubricate the transmission of the hedge trimmer (17) (Fig. 28)
Lubricate the drive every 10 to 20 operating hours.
Treat with lithium-based grease. Remove the maintenance screws (74) and put in the grease.
Then refit the maintenance screws (74).

Attention!
Top up with only a little grease. Under no circumstances overfill.
Oil the hedge trimmer (17) and the angle adjustment with environmentally friendly lubricating oil.

14.4.2 Visual inspection of the hedge trimmer
Check the hedge trimmer for obvious defects such as:

  • loose fastenings
  • worn or damaged components
  • bent, broken or damaged cutting device
  • covers or protective devices correctly mounted and intact.
  • Wear, especially sliding clearance of the cutting device.
    Replace damaged or blunt cutting tools immediately, even if only slightly damaged.

14.5 Maintenance of the pole pruner (26)
14.5.1 Maintaining the blade (32) and the pole-mounted pruner (26)
Turn the blade (32) over every time the saw chain (31) is sharpened or replaced. This will prevent wearing the blade (32) on one side, especially at the tip and the underside.

Regularly clean the following parts of the pole pruner (26):
1 = the opening for the oil feed
2 = the oil channel
3 = the circumferential groove of the rail

14.5.2 Maintenance and sharpening of the saw chain (31)
The properly sharpened saw chain (31)
A properly sharpened saw chain (31) goes effortlessly through the wood and requires very little pressure. Do not work with a dull or damaged saw chain (31). It increases  physical exertion, magnifies the vibrations and leads to unsatisfactory results as well as greater wear and tear.

  • Clean the saw chain (31) regularly.
  • Check the saw chain (31) for breaks in the links and damaged rivets.
  • Sharpening a saw chain (31) should only be carried out by experi- enced users!
  • Note the angles and dimensions specified below. If the saw chain (31) is not properly sharpened or the depth gauge is too small, there is a higher risk of kickback effects  and the resulting injuries! The saw chain (31) cannot be fixed on the blade (32). It is therefore best to remove the saw chain (31) from the blade (32) and then sharpen it.
  • Select a sharpening tool that is suitable for the chain pitch.

The chain pitch (e.g. 3/8”) is marked in the depth gauge of each blade.
Only use files specifically for saw chains!
Other files have the wrong shape and the wrong edge. Select the diameter of the file according to your chain pitch. Be sure to also note the following angles when sharpening the chain blades.

A = file angle
B = angle of the side plate
Furthermore, the angle must be maintained for all blades.
If the angles are uneven, the saw chain (31) will run erratically, wear out quickly and break prematurely.
Since these requirements can only be met with sufficient and regular practice:

  • Use a file holder.
  • A file holder must be used when sharpening the saw chain (31) by hand. The correct filing angles are marked on it.
  • Hold the file horizontally (at the correct angle to the blade (32)) and file according to the angle marking on the file holder. Support the file holder on the top plate and  the depth gauge.
  • Always file the blade from the inside out.
  • The file only sharpens as it moves forward. Lift the file off as you move backwards.
  • Do not touch the fastening straps or dynamic links with the file.
  • Turn the file regularly to avoid wear on one side.
  • Use a piece of hard wood to remove the burr from cutting edges.

All blades must have the same length, otherwise they will also be of different heights.
This causes the saw chain (31) to run erratically and increases the danger of breaking.

14.5.3   Lubricating the pole pruner transmission (Fig. 29)

Lubricate the drive every 10 to 20 operating hours.

  • Apply the grease gun to the grease nipple (75).
  • Squeeze some grease into it.

Attention!

Top up with only a little grease. Under no circumstances overfill.

14.6 Wearing parts

Even when used as intended, some components are subject to normal wear and tear. These must be replaced regularly depending on the type and duration of use. These parts  include the cutting tool and the retain- ing plate.
