SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Throttle trigger lock
The throttle trigger lock is
designed to prevent the
throttle from accidentally
being engaged. The trigger
(A) can only be pressed in, if
the lock (B) is held in (= the
operator holding the
handle). When the grip on
the handle is released the
throttle and the throttle
trigger lock return to their
original positions. This
takes place via two indepen-
dent return spring systems.
This means that the throttle
is automatically locked in
the idling position.
2. Stop switch
The stop switch (C) should
be used to stop the engine.
WARNING!
Never use a machine with defective safety
equipment. Follow the control,
maintenance and service instructions
