Adding grease and lubricant
- The gearbox of the pole hedge trimmer should be greased every 20 working
hours. Add approx. 10cc of lubricant (Shell Alvania No. 3 or equivalent) to the
gearbox via the grease nipples. (Some grease will emerge from the head of the
gearbox (located at the base of the blade) when the pole hedge trimmer is set in
motion the first time after greasing. Use this as a rough indicator for the amount
of grease to supply.)
Note:
Observe greasing intervals and the amount of grease to be supplied.
Mechanical parts of the pole hedge trimmer may be damaged if grease is
not supplied at the prescribed intervals or if an insufficient amount of
grease is added.
Fuel tank filter
- The inside of the fuel tank is equipped with a filter that cleans the fuel before it
enters the carburetor.
- Visually check the filter at regular intervals. To do so, use a piece of wire formed
into a hook and draw the filter out of the tank (1). Replace the filter if it is
hardened, clogged up, or excessively contaminated.
- Inadequate fuel supply as a result of a deteriorated fuel filter may result in poor
engine performance. In order to ensure that the required amount of fuel enters
the carburetor, replace the fuel filter whenever in doubt of its condition.
Cleaning the muffler outlet
- Check the condition of the muffler outlet (2) at regular intervals.
- Use a suitable tool to remove excessive carbon residue that accumulates
around the muffler outlet. Take special care to prevent removed carbon residue
from entering engine parts.
Cleaning the spark arrester
- The spark arrester should be cleaned every 50 working hours.
- Have the spark arrester cleaned at your dealership or by an authorized service
agent.
For all maintenance work not mentioned in this instruction manual, please contact
your dealership or an authorized service agent.
Daily inspection and maintenance
To ensure a long service life of your pole hedge trimmer, perform the following
inspections and maintenance on a daily basis.
- Always check for loose or missing parts before starting operation. Pay special
attention to the cutting unit and make sure that the cutter blade lock screws are
well tightened.
- Check for clogging of the cooling air passages and the cooling fins of the
cylinder before starting operation. Clean if necessary.
- Each day after using the pole hedge trimmer perform the following.
•
Clean the outside of the pole hedge trimmer; check for damage and loose
parts.
•
Clean the air filter. Clean the filter several times a day if working in extremely
dusty conditions.
•
Check the cutter blades for damage. Make sure that the blades are securely
mounted.
