Grip the power tool by the carrying
handle with the attachment facing
forward.
WARNING
When transporting it in a vehicle,
properly secure it to prevent turnover,
fuel spillage and damage to the unit.
Before Starting
WARNING
Always check your power tool for proper
condition and operation before starting.
Never attempt to modify the controls or
safety devices.
WARNING
Never operate your power tool if it is
damaged, improperly adjusted or
maintained, or not completely or
securely assembled.
Unfold the bike handle into the working
position and secure it with the knob (see
chapter "Adjusting the bicycle handle" of
your MultiEngine instruction manual.)
Keep the handles clean and dry at all
times; it is particularly important to keep
them free of moisture, pitch, oil, fuel mix,
FC-MM
grease or resin in order for you to
maintain a firm grip and properly control
your power tool.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury from the
MultiTool rotating in the wrong direction,
check that the position of the gearbox is
correct and change it if necessary.
On metal tools (top illustration), position
the gearbox so that the shaft is below
the drive tube.
Use for:
BF-MM cultivator blades with
–
pointed tines

WARNING
The MultiTool must be properly
tightened and in safe operating
condition. Inspect for loose parts (hitch
pins, screws, etc.) and for cracked, bent,
warped or damaged blades. Replace
damaged blades before using the power
tool.
WARNING
Do not attach any MultiTool to a unit
without proper installation of all required
parts. Failure to use the proper parts
may cause the attachment to fly off and
seriously injure the operator or
bystanders.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury from thrown
objects and contact with the attachment,
never operate your power tool without a
properly mounted deflector.
Check your MultiTool instruction manual
to ensure you are using the appropriate
deflector for the MultiTool mounted.

from the fueling spot, outdoors only.
For specific starting instructions, see the
appropriate section of your MultiEngine
and MultiTool manuals.
