User manual HUSQVARNA HEDGE TRIMMER ATTACHMENT

[. . . ] Husqvarna AB has a policy of continuous product development and therefore reserves the right to modify the design and appearance of products without prior notice. Read through the Operator`s manual carefully and understand the content before using the machine. These instructions supplement the instructions that were included with the machine. Under no circumstances may the design of the machine be modified without the permission of the manufacturer. [. . . ] â· Check the hedge you intend to trim for foreign objects such as electricity cables, insects and animals, etc, and for other objects that could damage the cutting attachment, such as metal items. If anything jams in the blades while you are working, switch off the engine and wait until it has stopped completely before cleaning the blades. The transport guard should always be fitted to the blades when the machine is not in use. â· Ensure the blades have stopped and remove the spark plug cable from the spark plug before carrying out cleaning, repairs or an inspection. â· Always wear heavy duty gloves when repairing the blades. â· Only use original spare parts when carrying out repairs. Press the cutting attachment against the ground or some other solid object to set the desired angle. Work with a swinging action from the bottom upwards when trimming sides. When trimming a hedge the engine should always be turned away from the hedge. â· The hedge trimmer should be held as close to the body as possible to get the best balance. â· Do not try to force the work, but move at a steady speed so that all the stems are cut evenly. Hand guard fastening screw Angle adjuster knob Hand guard Operator's manual Transport guard Shaft coupling Assemble the hand guard and loop handle by screwing them together. The loop handle and hand guard must not be fitted behind the arrow marked on the shaft. â· Ensure that the handle and safety functions are in order. Never use a machine that lacks a part or has been modified outside of the specifications. Lay the hedge trimmer on a flat surface before fitting the cutting attachment. Make sure the drive shaft on the shaft is aligned with the cut-out in the cutting attachment. After your unit has been run 8-10 tanks of fuel the engine has broken in. To ensure that your unit is at peak performance and producing the least amount of harmful emissions after break in, have your authorized servicing dealer, who has a revolution counter at his disposal, to adjust your carburettor for optimum operating conditions. The carburettor is set to its basic setting when test run at the factory. The basic setting is richer than the optimal setting and should be kept during the machine's first working hours. If the cutting attachment rotates/moves while the engine is idling the T-screw should be turned anti-clockwise until the cutting attachment stops. [. . . ] A correctly adjusted idle speed setting occurs when the engine runs smoothly in every position. It should also be good margin to the rpm when the L cutting attachment starts to move. Contact your servicing dealer, if the idle speed setting cannot be adjusted so that the cutting attachment stops. Do not use the machine until it has been properly adjusted or repaired. [. . . ]
