Please note: Only use containers designed and
approved for the purpose to transport and store fuel.

Mixing procedure: 40 parts petrol to 1 part oil
Petrol 2-stroke oil
1 liters 25 ml
5 liters 125 ml

7. Operation

Please note that the statutory regulations governing
noise abatement may differ from town to town.
7.1 Starting the engine from cold (Fig. 3-5)
Fill the tank with the required amount of oil/petrol
mix.
1. Set the machine down on a hard, level surface.
2. Set the choke lever (Fig. 4/Item 5) to " ".
3. Press the fuel pump (primer) (Fig. 4/Item 9) 10
times.
4. Move the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 3/Item 6) to "I"
5. Secure the throttle lever. To do this, press the
throttle lever lock (Fig. 3/Item 13) and then press
the throttle lever (Fig. 3/Item 14) and lock the
throttle lever by pressing the locking knob (Fig.
3/Item 7) at the same time.
6. Hold the machine by the front handle in your
right hand and pull the starter cable (Fig. 5/Item
A) up to the first resistance point (approx. 10
cm). Then tug sharply on the starter cable 4
times. The machine should start.
Please note: Never allow the starter cable to
snap back. This may damage the machine.
7. If the engine has started, set the choke lever
immediately to " " and allow the machine to
warm up for approx. 10 seconds.
Please note: Since the throttle lever is secured,
the cutting tool starts to operate when the engine
is started.
Then release the throttle lever by simply
actuating it (the engine then returns to running in
idle mode).
8. If the engine does not start up, repeat steps 6-7
above.

Please note: If the engine does not start up even
after several attempts, read the section "Engine
Troubleshooting".
Please note: Always pull the starter cable out in a
straight line. If it is pulled out at an angle, then friction
will occur on the eyelet. As a result of this friction, the
cable will become frayed and will wear away faster.
7.2 Starting the engine when warm (if the
machine has not been switched off for more than
15 – 20 minutes)
1. Set the machine down on a hard, level surface.
2. Switch the ON/OFF switch to "I".
3. Secure the throttle lever (in the same way as
described in "Starting the engine when cold").
4. Hold the machine by the front handle in your
right hand and pull the starter cable up to the first
resistance point (approx. 10 cm). Then tug
sharply on the starter cable. The machine should
start after 1-2 tugs. If the machine does not start
after 6 pulls, repeat steps 1 – 7 of the procedure
for starting the engine from cold.

7.3 Switching off the engine

Emergency Stop procedure:
If it becomes necessary to stop the machine
immediately, set the ON/OFF switch to "Stop" or "0"
Normal procedure:
Let go of the throttle lever and wait until the engine
has changed to idling speed. Then set the ON/OFF
switch to "Stop" or "0".

7.4 Practical tips

Never allow the machine to run at low speed for
starting or for cutting.
Cutting for dense growth: The most effective
method is to use wide, sweeping movements,
guiding the cutting edge of the blade straight through
the branches. A slight incline of the blade downwards
towards the movement will produce best cutting
results.
It is recommended to tie a guide line of string or the
like along the hedge so that you cut the hedge to a
level height. The branches above it will be cut off.
(Fig. 6)
Cutting the side of a hedge: Cut the sides of the
hedge with curve-shaped movements from the
bottom up. (Fig. 7)
