Operating and maintenance instructions

9.7 Information about the silencer

Ensure the silencer is in perfect condition before
operating the machine. Never touch the silencer while it
is still hot.
Unsatisfactory engine performance, despite a clean air
filter and a correctly adjusted carburettor, may well be
due to a partially blocked or damaged silencer. Please
consult your specialist service centre.

9.8 Replacing the fuel filter

We recommend having the fuel filter (53) changed
annually by a specialised service centre.

A trained mechanic can carefully remove the fuel filter
via a wire loop through the fuel tank filler. Ensure that
the thicker part of the fuel hose on the tank wall is not
drawn into the fuel tank.

9.9 Shutdown and storage

Preferably, store the equipment in a dry and secure
place with a full fuel tank. Open flames or similar must
not be nearby. Prevent unauthorised use – particularly
by children.
For stops longer than four weeks the following steps
should be carried out:
! Empty and clean the fuel tank at a well-ventilated
location.
! Start the engine with an empty fuel tank. Run the
engine until the carburettor is empty and the engine
stalls. Otherwise the carburettor nozzles could
become encrusted with residual fuel mixture and
make a subsequent start harder.
! Clean the power tool well (particularly the air intake
openings, the cylinder fins, the air filter and the fuel
filler area).
! Preferably, store the equipment in a dry and secure
place with a full fuel tank. Open flames or similar
must not be nearby. Prevent unauthorised access –
particularly by children.
