5 GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS

Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow all warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

5.1 Work area

• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

5.2 Personal safety

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a tool. Do not use a tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating tools may result in serious personal injury.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used whenever conditions require will reduce personal injuries.
• Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

POWXG2016 EN

• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust related hazards.

5.3 Engine tool use and care

• Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
• Store idle tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the tool or these instructions to operate the tool. The tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain tools. Check for misalignment or sticking of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the tool's operation. If damaged, have the tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to stick and are easier to control.
• Use the tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the tool for operations different from intended could lead to a hazardous situation.

5.4 Service

- Have your tool serviced by a qualified person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the tool is maintained.

6 PETROL SAFETY WARNINGS

• Do not operate in a hazardous location. Such areas include where there is a risk of explosion of petrol fumes, leaking gas or explosive dust.
• Do not operate in a confined area. Exhaust gases, smoke or fumes could reach dangerous concentrations.
• Protect your tool. This hedge trimmer is NOT WEATHERPROOF and should not be exposed to direct sunlight, high ambient temperature and damp, wet or high humidity conditions.
• Do not smoke while refueling. This is potentially dangerous as it may ignite the fuel and cause an explosion.
  Take care not to spill fuel. When refueling the hedge trimmer ensure that the motor has been switched off. Prevent the spilling of fuel as this may also ignite with the hot motor. Never refuel whilst the engine running.
• Be careful where you store the hedge trimmer. Store the hedge trimmer in a dry area away from flammable liquids.
• Keep your distance. The hedge trimmer emits exhaust fumes. Ensure bystanders keep a safe distance.
• Ensure you use oil-mix fuel. Ensure that you mix 40 parts unleaded fuel to 1 part 2-stroke oil. If not, the engine will overheat and cause damage to your hedge trimmer.

7 FUEL

7.1 Fuel and oil mixture

For best results use regular unleaded petrol mixed with 2-stroke air-cooled engine oil on a ratio of 40:1.

WARNING: Never use unmixed petrol in your engine. This will cause permanent damage and void the manufacturer's warranty for the product. Never use a fuel mixture that has been stored for more than 30 days.

WARNING: 2-stroke lubricant must be a premium grade oil for 2-stroke air-cooled engines mixed at a 40:1 ratio. Do not use any 2-stroke oil product with a recommended mix ratio of 100:1. If insufficient lubrication is the cause of engine damage, it voids the manufacturer's engine warranty.

7.1.1 Mixing fuel

Pour oil into an approved fuel canister followed by the petrol so that the petrol can mix with the oil. Shake container to ensure a thorough mix.

WARNING: Lack of lubrication voids engine warranty. Petrol and oil must be mixed at a 40:1 ratio.

7.2 Refuelling

■ The engine must be switched off.
- Stop the engine during refuelling, keep away from naked flames and do not smoke.
Take care not to spill either fuel or oil in order to prevent soil contamination (environmental protection). Clean the hedge trimmer immediately after fuel has been spilt.
- Do not spill any fuel onto the engine. Wipe up if necessary to avoid fire.
- Avoid any fuel contact with your clothing. Change your clothing instantly if fuel has been split on it (to prevent it catching fire).
- Inspect the fuel cap at regular intervals, making sure that it can be securely fastened and does not leak.
- Carefully tighten the fuel tank cap. Change location to start the engine (at least 3 metres away from the place of refuelling).
- Never refuel in enclosed rooms. Fuel vapours accumulate at ground level. (risk of potential explosions).
- Transport and store fuel only in approved containers. Make sure the fuel stored is not accessible to children.
- Thoroughly clean the area around the tank cap to prevent dirt from getting into the fuel tank.
■ Unscrew the plug and fill the tank with fuel. Use a gauge funnel to filter the fuel.
■ Tightly screw on the plug by hand only.
■ Clean around the screw plug and the tank after refuelling.
■ Always wipe up any spilt fuel to prevent a fire.

7.3 Storage of fuel

■ Fuel cannot be stored for an unlimited period of time.
■ Purchase only the quantity required for a 4-week operating period.
■ Use approved fuel storage containers only.

7.4 Recommended petrol

- Some standard petrol are enriched with oxygen-containing compounds such as alcohol or ether to comply with regulations on clean air. The motor is designed to work well on any car petrol, including these enriched petrol, on the condition that the above mixing ratios are observed!

8 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

8.1 Starting the engine

Move at least 3 metres away from the place of refuelling. Place the hedge trimmer on a clean area of ground and make sure that the cutting tool does not come into contact with the ground or any other objects.

Keep the blades clear of everything around, since they will start moving as soon as the engine starts.

8.1.1 Cold starting

If the engine is cold or if it has been stopped for more than 5 minutes or if fuel has been added to the engine.

- Push the primer pump gently (7 to 10 times) until fuel begins to flow into it. (Fig. 1)

■ Move the choke lever (4) to position “|” (Fig. 2)

(a) choke lever
(b) open
(c) close

• Set the ignition switch to the "START" position. (Fig. 3)
• Hold the unit down firmly so that you will not lose control while cranking the engine. If not held down properly, the engine could make you lose your balance or swing the cutting blade into a nearby object or your body.
• Pull out the starter handle slowly (10 to 15 cm), and check the pressure. Pull strongly when you feel the pressure and start the engine.
• When the engine starts, return the choke lever to "|↑|". Run the engine for approximately one minute at a moderate speed before moving up to full speed

Note: When restarting the engine immediately after stopping it, leave the choke open.

Note: Overchoking can make it hard to start the engine due to excess fuel. If the engine fails to start after several attempts, open the choke and pull the rope again, or remove the sparking plug and dry it.

8.1.2 Hot starting

Restarting immediately after the engine has stopped.

• Set the ignition switch to the "START" position. (Fig. 3)
  ■ Make sure the choke lever is open
• Pull out the starter handle slowly (10 to 15 cm), and check the pressure.
• Pull strongly when you feel the pressure and start the engine.

If the engine does not start, repeat the above steps

Do not pull the rope to the end or return it by releasing the knob. This can cause starter failures.

8.2 Stopping the engine

■ Release the throttle lever completely.
- Move the engine switch to the "STOP" position. The engine will now slow down and stop (Fig. 4)

Note: If the engine does not stop after moving the switch, close the choke to make it stop.

8.3 Angle change of rear handle

To permit vertical operation of the unit, the angle of the rear handle can be changed. To reduce fatigue when trimming hedges, the handle can be swivelled 45^ to the left or 90^ to the right.

8.3.1 How to change the angle (Fig. 5)

• Push back the throttle lever, and rotate the rear handle, pulling the adjustment trigger.
• Rotate the rear handle 90 or 45 degrees to the right or to the left.
• After completing the rotation, release the adjustment trigger To secure the rear handle, hold the adjustment trigger gently with one finger
• Use only as much throttle as is needed to do the job. Excessive engine speed is unnecessary.
• Always keep your body to the carburettor side of your trimmer, and never to the silencer side.
• During the first few minutes when a new machine is first used, grease may come out of the gearbox. Since this is excess grease, it is not a cause for alarm. Just wipe it off when the engine is switched off.

8.3.2 Vertical operation (Fig. 6)

• When rotating the rear handle to the right, hold the rear handle with your right hand, and the front handle with your left hand.
• When rotating the rear handle to the left, hold the front handle with your right hand, and the rear handle with your left hand. Cut using a circular movement.

8.3.3 Horizontal operation (Fig. 7)

- Tilting the trimmer 5 to 10^ towards the object to be cut will make things easier and produce good results.

9 MAINTENANCE

Our machines have been designed to operate for a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous and satisfactory operation presupposes proper machine care and regular cleaning.

Warning: Before cleaning, inspecting, or repairing the unit, make sure that the engine has stopped and is cool.

9.1 Blade lubrication

Warning: before lubricating, be sure your unit is switched off and that the blade has come to a complete stop.

- For easier operation and longer blade life, lubricate the blade before and after each use. Apply light machine oil along the edge of the blade bar

9.2 Safety lock (Fig. 8)

Warning: Stop using the trimmer if the safety lock is defective

Safety lock is the device which stops the throttle lever from being activated unintentionally. If you push the safety lock, you will activate the throttle lever.

Safety lock:

• Check that the throttle lever does not move if you do not push the safety lock.
• Check that the throttle lever moves if you activate or release it while pushing the safety lock.
• Check that the safety lock returns to its original position if you take your hand from safety lock.
• If these checks reveal any defects, contact your nearest dealer and ask to have them repaired

9.3 Air cleaner (Fig. 9)

Release the air cleaner cover and remove the dust. If the element is dirty, clean it by tapping it or by blowing away the dirt. If the element is bent or damaged, replace it. After you have cleaned the element reattach it to the cleaner body with the stamp on the outside (facing the cleaner cover). After that, replace the cleaner cover

Important: a clogged air cleaner reduces engine performance. Operating with no element or with a bent or damaged element causes irregular wear and tear of the engine mechanism

9.4 Air cooling

This engine is air-cooled. Dust clogging up the air cooling inlet port and the cylinder fins will cause the engine to overheat. Periodically check and clean the cylinder fins after removing the air cleaner and the cylinder cover.

9.5 Sparking Plug (Fig. 10)

Starting problems and misfiring are often caused by a fouled sparking plug. Periodically clean the sparking plug, and replace with a new one as and when required.

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 sparking 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 50 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 sparking 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 sparking plug.
• Pour a small spoonful of 2-stroke mixture into the sparking 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 sparking 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 sparking plug.
- Quickly pull the starter cord right through several times in order to remove oil and deposits in the engine compartment.
- Check the sparking plug, replace it if necessary and screw it in.
- Fill the petrol tank with the 2-stroke mixture.
