Warm Start; Operation - GGP ITALY B 26 J Manual De Instrucciones

IMPORTANT To avoid breaking the starter
cable, do not pull the whole length of it or
let it slide along the edge of the cable guide
hole. Release the starter grip gradually,
to prevent it flying back uncontrollably.
1. Turn switch (fig. 12.A; fig. 13.A) to «I».
2. Switch on the starter (fig. 12.E; fig. 13.E)
by turning the lever to position «B».
3. Press the primer device button (fig. 12.F; fig.

Make sure that the hole is covered by
your finger when pressing the bulb.
4. only for models with throttle shutter:
Push the throttle control lever (fig. 12.B)
and the throttle safety lever at the same
time (fig. 13.C) and keep them in this
position whilst pressing the throttle shutter
button (fig. 12.D); release the levers so
that the button remains pressed.
5. Hold the machine firmly on the ground
with one hand on the power unit,
in order not to lose control of the
machine during startup (Fig. 14).
6. Pull the starter grip slowly for 10 - 15 cm until
you feel some resistance, then tug it a few
times until you hear the engine turn over.

9.a only for models with throttle shutter:
Use the throttle control lever (fig. 12.B)
briefly to disconnect the throttle (fig.
12.D) and make the engine run idle.
9.b only for models without throttle
shutter:
control lever (fig. 13.B) briefly.
10. Let the engine run idle for at least 1
minute before using the machine.
IMPORTANT If the starter grip is pulled
repeatedly with the starter on, it may flood
the engine and make starting difficult. "
If the engine floods (see paragraph 7.6).

OPERATION

NOTE Before tackling a mowing job for the first
time, get to know the machine, learn the most
suitable cutting techniques, make sure your wear
Use the throttle
the harnesses correctly, grip the machine firmly
and make the movements required by the job.
To operate with the machine,
proceed as described below:
• always keep the machine connected
to the correctly worn harness when
working (see paragraph 6.1.1).
• When working, the machine must always
be firmly held in both hands, keeping the
power unit on the right of the body and the
cutting unit below the line of the belt.
6.4.1 Work techniques
6.4.1.a Cutting line head
Use ONLY nylon lines. The use of
metal lines, plasticised metal lines and/
or lines that are not suitable for the head
can cause serious injuries and wounds.
Do not use the machine for sweeping,
tilting the cutting line head. The power
of the engine could throw objects
and small stones 15 metres or more,
causing damage or injury to people.
a. Cutting in motion (Scything)
Proceed at a regular pace, with a circular motion
similar to a traditional scythe, without tilting the
cutting line head during the operation (Fig. 15).
First try cutting at the right height in a small
area, so as to then achieve a uniform cutting
height keeping the cutting line head at a
constant distance from the ground.
For heavier cutting it can be useful to tilt the
cutting line head to the left by about 30°.
Do not work in this way if there
is the possibility of causing objects
to be thrown, which could harm
people, animals or cause damage.
b. Precision cutting (Trimming)
Keep the machine slightly tilted so that the
lower part of the cutting line head does not
touch the ground and the cutting line is at the
required point, always keeping the cutting
means at a distance from the operator.
c. Cutting near fences/foundations
Move the cutting line head slowly
towards fences, posts, rocks, walls, etc.
without hitting them hard (Fig. 16).
If the line strikes a solid object it could
break or become worn; if it gets tangled
in a fence it could break suddenly.
