Cutting Equipment - Husqvarna 129DJx Manuel D'utilisation

WARNING! The inside of the muffler
!
contain chemicals that may be
carcinogenic. Avoid contact with these
elements in the event of a damaged
muffler.
WARNING! Bear in mind that:
!
The exhaust fumes from the engine are
hot and may contain sparks which can
start a fire. Never start the machine
indoors or near combustible material!
Locking nut
A locking nut is used to secure some types of cutting
attachment.
When fitting, tighten the nut in the opposite direction to the
direction of rotation of the cutting attachment. To remove
it, undo the nut in the same direction as the cutting
attachment rotates. (CAUTION! The nut has a left-hand
thread.)
When loosening and tightening the saw blade nut, there
is a risk of injury from the teeth of the saw blade. You
should therefore always ensure that your hand is shielded
by the blade guard when doing this. Always use a socket
spanner with a shaft that is long enough to allow this. The
arrow in the diagram shows the area where you should
operate the socket spanner when loosening or tightening
the nut.
The nylon lining inside the locking nut must not be so worn
that you can turn it by hand. The lining should offer a
resistance of at least 1.5 Nm. The nut should be replaced
after it has been put on approx. 10 times.
GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Cutting equipment

This section describes how to choose and maintain your
cutting equipment in order to:
• Reduce the risk of blade thrust.
• Obtain maximum cutting performance.
• Extend the life of cutting equipment.
IMPORTANT!
Only use cutting attachments with the guards we
recommend! See the chapter on Technical data.
Refer to the instructions for the cutting attachment to
check the correct way to load the cord and the correct
cord diameter.
Keep the teeth of the blade correctly sharpened! Follow
our recommendations. Also refer to the instructions on
the blade packaging.
WARNING! Always stop the engine

stopped completely and disconnect the
spark plug cap before you start to work
on it.
WARNING! Using an incorrect cutting

attachment or an incorrectly sharpened
blade increases the risk of blade thrust.
