While tightening, the blade assembly can be held fast by inserting the wrench or the screwdriver supplied into the cap and gearcase holes. To do this, rotate the cap intil the two holes coincide. 4) Assemble nylon string head as illustrated: a) Flange guard - b) Upper cap - c) Guard d) Nylon string head

Tighten counterclockwise. 5) While tightening, the head assembly can be held fast by inserting the wrench or the screwdriver supplied into the holes as already shown for blade assembly. WARNING: Do not use the guard for the nylon string head (18) when using a metal blade.

G. Handle assembly
DOUBLE HANDLE Adjust and secure double hand clamp by tightening the screws.

H. Starting and stopping the engine
WARNING: First read sections: SAFETY RULES, SAFETY USAGE and SYMBOLS. STARTING A COLD ENGINE 1) Position the on/off switch to the I (ON) position, away from the «STOP» position. 2) Rotate the choke lever in the direction illustrated by the arrows. This engages the fast idle system. 3) Squeeze the primer bulb (C) several times until you see fuel begin to return back through the tube (D) towards the fuel tank. Push the decompression valve (B) down if your models is fitted with one. Pull the starter handle until the engine starts. 4) Hold the machine safely and allow the engine to run for a few seconds. Grip the control handle firmly, pushing down on the safety trigger (S) and then squeezing the accelerator trigger (A). This action automatically releases the spring loaded choke lever (E) disengaging the fast idle system. WARNING: The fast idle system does cause the cutting attachment to rotate when engaged. STARTING A WARM ENGINE Position the on/off switch to the I (ON) position. Squeeze the primer bulb (C) several times until you see fuel begin to return back through tube (D) to the fuel tank. Pull the starter handle until the engine runs. HOT ENGINE STARTING WITH 1) STOP switch on START position I. Trigger on idle position (released). Choke towards (open position ). 5) Depress the safety lever (S), squeeze the accelerator trigger (A) and push the throttle advance forwards (B). Now release the accelerator trigger (A) and then the throttle advance (B). 3) Press the primer bulb (C) several times until you see fuel going back to carburetor through pipe (D). Pull starter rope. WARNING: when the throttle (B) advance is engaged, the head or blade rotates. 5) ENGINE STOPPING Press the stop switch moving it to STOP position 0. WARNING: when the engine is switched off rotating parts, blade or nylon string head, will keep on rotating for a few seconds. Hold the machine until all parts come to a standstill. N.B. In an emergency the above mentioned delay in stopping may be shortened by touching blade parallel on the ground.

I. Carburettor adjustment
To adjust the idle speed, however, proceed as follows: With engine running and warm, slowly turn screw �T� clockwise until the engine runs smoothly with a consistent noise level but without making the cutting head rotate. If the cutting attachment does move or the engine runs too fast, slowly turn screw �T� in an anticlockwise direction until the correct speed is obtained. Precise numerical engine speed settings are mentioned in the technical detail chart in the front of the owner�s manual.

L. Regular maintenance
From time to time ensure all screws are tight. Replace damaged, worn, cracked or warped blades. Always make sure nylon string head or blade have been assembled correctly (see sections NYLON STRING HEAD and BLADE ASSEMBLY) and blade fastener is tightened. ENGLISH - 5
