manual abstract
Make sure the throttle control is locked at the idle setting when the throttle lock is released. Press the throttle lock and make sure it returns to its original position when you release it. Check that the throttle control and throttle lock move freely and that the return springs work properly. See instructions under the heading Start. Start the machine and apply full throttle. Release the throttle and check that the sweeper rollers stops and remains at a standstill. If the sweeper rollers rotates with the throttle in the idle position then the carburettor idle setting must be checked. See instructions under the heading Maintenance. Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when you move the stop switch to the stop setting. Vibration damping system Your machine is equipped with a vibration damping system that is designed to reduce vibration and make operation easier. Stop switch Use the stop switch to switch off the engine. English – 7 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The machine.s vibration damping system reduces the transfer of vibration between the engine unit/cutting equipment and the machine.s handle unit. Regularly check the vibration damping units for cracks or deformation. Check that the vibration damping element is undamaged and securely attached. ! WARNING! Overexposure to vibration can lead to circulatory damage or nerve damage in people who have impaired circulation. Contact your doctor if you experience symptoms of overexposure to vibration. Such symptoms include numbness, loss of feeling, tingling, pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes in skin colour or condition.These symptoms normally appear in the fingers, hands or wrists.The risk increases at low temperatures. 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. 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 mesh. Check whether the muffler on your machine is fitted with this kind of mesh. For mufflers it is very important that you follow the instructions on checking, maintaining and servicing your machine. Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler. Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the machine. If the muffler on your machine is fitted with a spark arrestor mesh this must be cleaned regularly. A blocked mesh will cause the engine to overheat and may lead to serious damage. 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! 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: Engine ! exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide, which can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. For this reason you should not start or run the machine indoors, or anywhere that is poorly ventilated. 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! 8 – English ASSEMBLY Assembling the sweeper • Slide the plastic sleeve (wear protection) (A) onto the shaft (B). • Fit the gearbox (C) on the tube (B).Tighten clamp screw (D) at the gearbox. Tighten the two locking screws (E) on the gearbox. • Press one of the roller shafts (F) onto one of the two output drive shafts from the gearbox. If necessary rotate the roller shaft so that the hole for the pin lines up with the corresponding hole in the drive shaft. • Secure the roller shaft on the drive shaft using a pin (G) and hairpin spring (H). • Slide one of the sweeper rollers (I) onto the fitted tube. The end with the extended rubber blades must be fitted closest to the gearbox. Slide the sweeper roller on until it touches the pin. • Secure the roller to the shaft using a split pin (K) (see diagram).The split pin must be flush with the outer end of the roller, so you may need to push on the end plate slightly to fit it. • Repeat steps 1-7 to fit the shaft and roller on the other side. Fitting the loop handle • Position the handle on the shaft. Note that the handle must be mounted below the arrow on the shaft. • Fit the screw, securing plate and wing nut as shown in the diagram. • Tighten the wing nut. CAUTION! The rollers are identical, but they must both be fitted with the extended rubber blades nearest the gearbox. 9 – English FUEL HANDLING Fuel safety Never start the machine: 1 If you have spilt fuel on it.
