Starting And Stopping; Check Before Starting - Jonsered GC 2128C Manuel D'utilisation

STARTING AND STOPPING

Check before starting

S Check the blade to ensure that no cracks
have formed at the bottom of the teeth or
by the centre hole. The most common rea-
son why cracks are formed is that sharp
corners have been formed at the bottom of
the teeth while sharpening or that the blade
has been used with dull teeth. Discard a
blade if cracks are found.
WARNING:
Use of an incorrect
or damaged blade could result in
serious injury or death. Always dis-
card a blade that is bent, twisted,
cracked, broken or damaged in any
other way. Never attempt to straight-
en a twisted blade so that it can be
reused. Only use original blades of
the specified type.
S Check that the support flange is not
cracked due to fatigue or due to being
tightened too much. Discard the support
flange if it is cracked.
S Ensure the locking nut has not lost its cap-
tive force. The nut lock should have a
locking force of at least 1.5 Nm. The tight-
ening torque of the locking nut should be
35- -50 Nm.
S Check that the trimmer head and trimmer
guard are not damaged or cracked.
Replace the trimmer head or trimmer
guard if they have been exposed to
impact or are cracked.
