The user can independently determine the degree of readiness of the trimmer to work on the following items:

  • Checking the throttle lever stopper. This function is designed to reduce the risk of an accidental start. When the lawn mowers are held in the human hand, the throttle lever is released.
  • Releasing the handle leads to the opposite, the lever and stopper return to their original position. This action is possible thanks to the built-in spring mechanism that automatically blocks the throttle at idle.
  • After pressing and unclenching, the operator is convinced of blocking idling. The stop must be in the starting position.
  • The operator presses the throttle lever stopper and checks the speed of returning the element to its original position.
  • Next, the operator is convinced of the ease of the reciprocating throttle process. Check for operability of the spring mechanism.

3. Checking the correct start-up of the trimmer:

  • You must run the trimmer.
  • Fully open throttle access.
  • While releasing the throttle lever, check the degree of stop of the cutting elements. Full serviceability is considered when the knife is stationary.
  • With the continuation of the rotational movements of the cutting elements in the idle throttle position, adjust the carburetor.
