If The Motor Does Not Start; When The Motor Starts; Turning Off The Motor; Using - Solo 440 Gebrauchsanweisung

If the motor is cold:
With the starter shutter in position
until the motor is audible and briefly starts
(ignites). Then immediately place the starter
shutter in position
the motor turns over.
If the motor is warm:
With the starter shutter in position
until the motor turns over.

7.3 If the motor does not start

1.If the motor does not start in idle position,
press the throttle (Fig.10.2) half-way down
and bring the gas selector lever (Fig. 10.3) into
a middle position. Do not start with throttle
fully open! If the motor still does not start,
then the combustion chamber is flooded.
2.In this case we recommend:
1
Placing the stop switch on pos. "0 / stop",
Remove the sparkplug cover,
Pull out the underlying sparkplug connector,
unscrew the sparkplug and dry it well,
Give full throttle and pull the starter grip several times to
ventilate the combustion chamber
replace the sparkplug, replace sparkplug connector and sparkplug cover.
Place the stop switch on pos. "1 / start", starter shutter on
pos. .
Repeat start process.

7.4 When the motor starts

Adjust the gas pre-selector switch (Fig. 10.3)
all the way up (idle position) if you had it on a
middle position. You can now start working.
The ideal RPM speed can be set either with
the gas throttle or the gas pre-selector switch.

7.5 Turning off the motor

Release gas throttle, and if required bring the
pre-gas selector switch into idle position. The
stop switch is placed in pos. "0" or "STOP".

8. Using

8.1 Blower (440)

The device is designed as a one-hand device.
start
. Continue starting until
start
FIG. 13
It can be carried with the right hand or also the left hand
on the operating handle. Leaves. Grass cuttings, shavings,
grains can be blown away - even on uneven terrain.
Through lower engine RPMs the strength of the blower
jet can be lessened and the effective area can be reduced.
Watch for small animals!
8.2 Vacuum shredder (441)
The vacuum shredder is conceived as a two-hand
device. It must be carried with the right hand on
the pedestal grip and with the left hand on the
operating handle. The carrying strap of the collec-
tion bag is placed over the left shoulder and the
right arm goes through the carrying strap. With the
vacuum tube leaves, grass clippings, pieces of card-
board, pieces of bark etc. can be vacuumed up. The
suction force can be reduced by lower RPM speed
and the effective area can be decreased.
Attention:
When vacuuming wet leaves or clumps of grass the
blower can become plugged! Before opening the
blower cover - even to remove clumped or jammed
suctioned material - always place the stop switch on "0
/ stop" and pull off the sparkplug connector!
Always watch out for small animals when vacuuming.

9. Operating and maintenance instructions

9.1 General operating instructions

1.The maintenance and the repair of modern devices as
well as their safety-relevant assemblies requires qualified
specialized training and a workshop equipped with
special tools and test devices. Consequently the manufac-
turer recommends that all tasks not described in these
operating instructions be carried out by a specialized
work shop. The specialist has the required training, expe-
rience, and equipment at his disposal, to provide you with
the most cost-effective solution for the respective situa-
tion. He will provide additional help in word and deed.
2.After a running in time of app. 5 operating hours, all
accessible screws and nuts (except the carburetor adjust-
ing screws) must be checked for firm seat and they must
be retightened if required.
3.Bear in mind when using this power tool that the engine
and its various components such as carburetor and ignition
system can become very hot, particularly at full-throttle
operation. So that no consequential damages occur in this
regard, the motor should run for some time in idle after
longer periods of full-throttle operation. When you are
finished with the work, let the motor cool down.
4.It is best to store the device in a dry, safe location with
full gas tank. There should be no open flame possibilities
or similar in the vicinity in the case of longer periods of
inactivity (over 3 months), see chapter "9.7Shutdown
and storage".
