GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
FIRST AID KIT
Press the throttle lockout and make sure it returns to its
original position when you release it.
Always have a first aid kit nearby.
Machine′s safety equipment
Check that the throttle control and throttle lockout move freely
and that the return springs work properly.
This section describes the machine′s safety equipment, its
purpose, and how checks and maintenance should be carried
out to ensure that it operates correctly. See the ”What is
what?” section to locate where this equipment is positioned
on your machine.
The life span of the machine can be reduced and the risk of
accidents can increase if machine maintenance is not carried
out correctly and if service and/or repairs are not carried out
professionally. If you need further information please contact
your nearest service workshop.
See instructions under the heading Start. Start the hedge
trimmer and apply full throttle. Release the throttle trigger and
check that the blades stop and remain stationary.If the blades
move when the throttle trigger is in the idle position then the
carburettor idle setting must be adjusted. See instructions
under the heading Maintenance.
IMPORTANT!
All servicing and repair work on the machine requires
special training. This is especially true of the machine′s
safety equipment. If your machine fails any of the checks
described below you must contact your service agent.
When you buy any of our products we guarantee the
availability of professional repairs and service. If the retailer
who sells your machine is not a servicing dealer, ask him for
the address of your nearest service agent.
Stop switch
Use the stop switch to switch off the engine.
WARNING! Never use a machine with faulty
safety equipment.The machine’s safety
equipment must be checked and maintained
as described in this section. If your machine
fails any of these checks contact your

move the stop switch to the stop setting.
Throttle lockout
Muffler
The throttle lockout is designed to prevent accidental
operation of the throttle control. When you press the lock (A)
(i.e.when you grasp the handle) it releases the throttle control
(B). When you release the handle the throttle control and the
throttle lockout both move back to their original positions.This
movement is controlled by two independent return springs.
This arrangement means that the throttle control is
automatically locked at the idle setting.
The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum
and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user. A muffler
fitted with a catalytic converter is also designed to reduce
harmful exhaust gases.
A
B
Make sure the throttle control is locked at the idle setting
when the throttle lockout is released.

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
In countries that have a warm and dry climate there is a
Blades
significant risk of fire. We therefore fit certain mufflers with a
spark arrestor mesh. Check whether the muffler on your
machine is fitted with this kind of mesh.
To ensure good cutting results it is important that the contact
pressure between the blades is correct.The contact pressure
is adjusted by turning the screws on the underside of the bar
clockwise as far as they will go. Then turn the screws
anticlockwise a 1/4 turn.Lock the screws using the locking nut
on the top of the bar. Check that the screws are loose enough
to allow the washers under the screw heads to slide sideways.
For mufflers it is very important that you follow the instructions
on checking, maintaining and servicing your machine.
When the blades are correctly adjusted the play between the
blades should be 0,2–0,4 mm, measured at the screws.
Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.
The edges of the blades are too hard to be filed. Dull blades
should be sharpened using a grinder.
Replace the blades if they are bent or damaged.
Gear
The gear housing gets hot when the machine has been in
use. To avoid burning yourself do not touch the gear housing.
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the
machine.
If the muffler on your machine is fitted with a spark arrestor
mesh this must be cleaned regularly. A blocked mesh will
cause the engine to overheat and may lead to serious
damage.
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic
converters get very hot during use and
remain so for some time after stopping.This
also applies at idle speed. Contact can result
in burns to the skin. Remember the risk of
fire!
!
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!

FUEL HANDLING
Petrol
Fuel safety
Never start the machine:
1
2
If you have spilt fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and allow
remaining fuel to evaporate.
NB! Always use a quality petrol/oil mixture at least 90 octane
(RON). If your machine is equipped with a catalytic converter
(see chapter on Technical data) always use a good quality
unleaded petrol/oil mixture. Leaded petrol will destroy the
catalytic converter.
If you have spilt fuel on yourself or your clothes, change
your clothes.Wash any part of your body that has come in
contact with fuel. Use soap and water.
3
If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks
from the fuel cap and fuel lines.
Use low-emission petrol, also known as alkylate petrol, if it is
available.
Transport and storage
•
Store and transport the machine and fuel so that there is
no risk of any leakage or fumes coming into contact with
sparks or naked flames, for example, from electrical
machinery, electric motors, electrical relays/switches or
boilers.
•
•
The lowest octane recommended is 90 (RON). If you run
the engine on a lower octane grade than 90 so-called
knocking can occur. This gives rise to a high engine
temperature, which can result in serious engine damage.
•
•
When storing and transporting fuel always use approved
containers intended for this purpose.
When storing the machine for long periods the fuel tank
must be emptied. Contact your local petrol station to find
out where to dispose of excess fuel.
When working at continuous high revs a higher octane
rating is recommended.
•
•
Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete
service is carried out before long-term storage.
Two-stroke oil
The transport guard must always be fitted to the cutting
attachment when the machine is being transported or in
storage.
•
For best results and performance use JONSERED two-
stroke engine oil, which is specially formulated for our air-
cooled two-stroke engines.
•
Secure the machine during transport.
•
Never use two-stroke oil intended for water-cooled
engines, sometimes referred to as outboard oil (rated
TCW).
WARNING! Take care when handling fuel.
Bear in mind the risk of fire, explosion and
inhaling fumes.
•
•
Never use oil intended for four-stroke engines.
Mixing ratio
!
1:50 (2%) with JONSERED two-stroke oil.
Fuel
1:33 (3%) with oils class JASO FB or ISO EGB formulated
for air-cooled, two-stroke engines.
NB! The machine is equipped with a two-stroke engine and
must always been run using a mixture of petrol and two-stroke
oil. It is important to accurately measure the amount of oil to
be mixed to ensure that the correct mixture is obtained.When
mixing small amounts of fuel, even small inaccuracies can
drastically affect the ratio of the mixture.

MAINTENANCE
Carburettor
Muffler
Your Jonsered product has been designed and manufactured
to specifications that reduce harmful exhaust fumes. The
engine will be run in after it has used 8-10 tanks of fuel. To
ensure that the engine runs at peak performance and
produces as little harmful exhaust fumes as possible after the
running-in period, ask your dealer/service workshop (which
has a rev counter for this purpose) to adjust your carburettor.
CAUTION! Some mufflers are fitted with a catalytic
converter. See chapter on Technical data to see whether your
machine is fitted with a catalytic converter.
The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level and to direct
the exhaust gases away from the operator. The exhaust
gases are hot and can contain sparks, which may cause fire
if directed against dry and combustible material.
Function
•
•
The carburettor governs the engine’s speed via the
throttle control. Air and fuel are mixed in the carburettor.
The air/fuel mixture is adjustable. Correct adjustment is
essential to get the best performance from the machine.
Adjusting the carburettor means that the engine is
adapted to local operating conditions, e.g. climate,
altitude, petrol and the type of 2-stroke oil.
Adjusting the idle speed
The T-screw regulates the throttle setting at idle speed. If the
T-screw is turned clockwise this gives a higher idle speed;
turning it anti-clockwise gives a lower idle speed.
Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor
mesh. If your machine has this type of muffler, you should
clean the mesh at least once a week.This is best done with a
wire brush.
Before any adjustments are made, make sure that the air filter
is clean and the air filter cover is fitted.
On mufflers without a catalytic converter the mesh should be
cleaned weekly, or replaced if necessary. On mufflers fitted
with a catalytic converter the mesh should be checked, and if
necessary cleaned, monthly. If the mesh is damaged it
should be replaced. If the mesh is frequently blocked, this
can be a sign that the performance of the catalytic converter
is impaired. Contact your dealer to inspect the muffler. A
blocked mesh will cause the machine to overheat and result
in damage to the cylinder and piston. See also instructions
under the heading Maintenance.
Adjust the idle speed with the idle adjustment screw T, if
adjustment is necessary. First turn the idle adjustment screw
T clockwise until the blades start to move. Then turn the idle
adjustment screw T anticlockwise until the blades stop. The
idle speed is correctly adjusted when the engine runs
smoothly in every position. There should also be a clear
margin to the speed at which the blades start to move. The
blades must also remain stationary when the choke control is
in the start throttle position.
CAUTION! Never use a machine with a defective muffler.
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic
converters get very hot during use and
remain so for some time after stopping.This
also applies at idle speed. Contact can result
in burns to the skin. Remember the risk of
fire!
!
WARNING! If the idle speed cannot be
adjusted so that the cutting attachment
stops, contact your dealer/service
workshop. Do not use the machine until it
has been correctly adjusted or repaired.

Remove the air filter cover and take out the filter. Wash it
clean in warm, soapy water. Ensure that the filter is dry before
refitting it.
An air filter that has been in use for a long time cannot be
cleaned completely.The filter must therefore be replaced with
a new one at regular intervals. A damaged air filter must
always be replaced.
The spark plug condition is influenced by:
•
•
Incorrect carburettor adjustment.
An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type of
oil).
If the machine is used in dusty conditions the air filter should
be soaked in oil.See instructions under the heading Oiling the
air filter.
•
A dirty air filter.
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug electrodes,
which may result in operating problems and starting
difficulties.
Oiling the air filter
If the machine is low on power, difficult to start or runs poorly
at idle speed: always check the spark plug first before taking
any further action. If the spark plug is dirty, clean it and check
that the electrode gap is 0,6-0,7 mm. The spark plug should
be replaced after about a month in operation or earlier if
necessary.
Always use special filter oil. Filter oil contains a solvent to
make it spread evenly through the filter.You should therefore
avoid skin contact.
Put the filter in a plastic bag and pour the filter oil over it.
Knead the plastic bag to distribute the oil. Squeeze the
excess oil out of the filter inside the plastic bag and pour off
the excess before fitting the filter to the machine. Never use
common engine oil. This would drain through the filter quite
quickly and collect in the bottom.
0,6 - 0,7 mm
CAUTION! Always use the recommended spark plug type!
Use of the wrong spark plug can damage the piston/cylinder.
Check that the spark plug is fitted with a suppressor.

MAINTENANCE
Gear
There are three grease nipples on the gearbox. Use a grease
gun to top up with grease. This should be carried out after
approximately every 20 working hours. Use Jonsered special
grease.
Cleaning and lubrication
Clean any resin and plant residue from the blades using
cleaning agent before and after using the machine.
Lubricate the blade bars with special grease before long
periods of storage.
