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.
Cold starting

to the engine.
1) Push the switch (11) to the "I" position.(Fig.3)

you feel the pressure and start the engine.
