assemblies, deflectors and mounting bolts to make sure that they are not worn, damaged or loose. Always check that the gas
throttle trigger and the Stop button operate correctly.

OPERATION
C1. Do not run the engine in a confined space where toxic carbon monoxide fumes may accumulate.
C2. Work by daylight only.
C3. As far as possible, avoid using the machine on wet ground.
C4. When operating the machine, ensure compliance with the safety clearance of the nylon line cutting head with respect to the
harness attachment point.
C5. Walk when you use the machine, never run, and stay in a stable position. Beware of obstacles such as stones and tree stumps
which could trip you.
C6. Tread carefully on slopes. When working on slopes, always proceed crosswise: never straight up and down.
C7. Do not use the machine on slopes that are too steep. It is the operator's responsibility to assess the potential hazards of the
terrain and to take every necessary precaution for his or her own safety. This is especially important when working on slopes or
rough, slippery or loose ground.
C8. Never modify the engine settings in such a way that it runs at excessive speeds.
C9. Before starting the engine, make sure there is no-one within 15 metres of the machine, that the cutting attachment is not
touching the ground and that the machine is in a stable position.
C10. Take care when starting the engine. Comply with the safety instructions and stay clear of the cutting attachment.
C11. The engine must be stopped and the spark plug cap removed in the following cases:
- Before performing any servicing action on the cutting system.
- Before cleaning, checking, adjusting or repairing the trimmer.
- The only adjustments to be carried out with the engine running are carburettor and idle speed adjustments.
- During this operation, make sure the cutting attachment does not strike any object and that the machine is in a stable
position.
- If the cutting attachment strikes an object, inspect the cutting system and the transmission shaft to make sure they have not
been damaged. Make any necessary repairs before resuming work with the machine.
- If the trimmer starts vibrating abnormally, look for the cause of the vibrations immediately and take the necessary corrective
action.
C12. Stop the engine in the following cases:
- Whenever the trimmer is left unattended.
- Before refilling the fuel tank.
- When moving the machine from one area to another.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
D1. Keep all nuts and bolts securely tightened to ensure safe operation. Regular maintenance is required to ensure safety and
optimal performance.
D2. Do not use the machine with damaged or worn parts. Parts must be replaced, not repaired. Use genuine Honda parts. Parts of
inferior quality may damage the machine and compromise operator safety.
D3. Wear heavy gloves when removing and installing the cutting device.
D4. Never store the trimmer with fuel in the fuel tank in a room where fuel vapour could be ignited by a flame, a spark or a source of
intense heat.
D5. Store in a clean dry room, out of the reach of children.
D6. Let the engine cool down before putting away the machine in any room.
D7. To reduce fire hazards, remove leaves, grass cuttings and excess oil from the trimmer, particularly from the cooling fins, the
exhaust system and the fuel storage area.
D8. If the fuel tank has to be drained, this operation must be performed outdoors when the engine is cold.
D9. To protect the environment, do not dispose of old engine oil or fuel by pouring it down the drain, in the gutter or on the ground.
Your local service station can have oil and fuel safely recycled.
