Vibration damping system
Y
our machine is equipped with a vibration damping system
that is designed to minimize vibration and make operation
easier.
The machine

s vibration damping system reduces the transfer
of vibration between the engine unit/cutting equipment and
the machine
′
s handle unit.
The engine body, including the cutting equipment, is insulated
from the handles by vibration damping units.

witch to switch off the engine.
Muffl
er
The m
uffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum
and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user.
Thr
ottle lockout
The throttle tr
igger lock is designed to prevent accidental
operation of the throttle. When the lock (A) is pressed in this
releases the throttle (B).
The trigger lock remains pressed in as long as the throttle is
pressed. When the grip on the handle is released the throttle
trigger and the throttle trigger lock both return to their original
positions. This is controlled by two independent return spring
systems. This means that the throttle trigger is automatically
locked in the idle position.
Guar
d for the blade
This guard is fi
tted above the cutting blade and is designed to
prevent parts of the blade or cutting fragments from being
thrown towards the user.
