6.2 Chain saw
▪ DO NOT operate a chain saw with one hand! Serious injury to the operator, helpers, bystanders, or any combination of these persons may result from one-handed operation. A chain saw is intended for two-handed use.
▪
DO NOT operate a chain saw when you are fatigued, under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.
▪ Use safety footwear, snug-fitting clothing, protective gloves, and eye, hearing and head protection devices.
▪ Use caution when handling fuel. To avoid fire, move the chain saw at least 10 feet (3 m) from the fuelling point before starting the engine.
▪ DO NOT allow other persons to be near when starting or cutting with the chain saw. Keep bystanders and animals out of the work area.
▪ DO NOT start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing, and a planned retreat path from the falling tree.
▪
Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain when the engine is running.
▪ Before you start the engine, make sure that the saw chain is not contacting anything.
▪ Carry the chain saw with the engine stopped, the guide bar and saw chain to the rear, and the muffler away from your body.
▪ DO NOT operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle control trigger is released.
▪ Shut off the engine before setting the chain saw down.
▪ Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and saplings because slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.
▪
When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring back so that you will not be struck when the tension in the wood fibres is released.
▪ Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil or fuel mixture.
▪ Operate the chain saw only in well-ventilated areas.
▪ DO NOT operate a chain saw in a tree unless you have been specifically trained to do so.
▪
All chain saw service, other than the items listed in the user manual safety and maintenance instructions, should be performed by competent chain saw service personnel.
▪ When transporting your chain saw, use the appropriate guide bar scabbard.
▪ DO NOT operate your chain saw near or around flammable liquids or gases whether in or out of doors. An explosion and/or fire may result.
▪ Do not fill fuel tank, oil tank or lubricate when the engine is running.
▪ USE THE RIGHT TOOL: Cut wood only. Do not use the chain saw for purposes for which it was not intended. For example, do not use the chain saw for cutting plastic, masonry, or non-building materials.
▪ The first time user should have practical instruction in the use of chainsaw and the protective equipment from an experienced operator.
▪ Do not attempt to hold the saw with one hand only. You cannot control reactive forces and you may lose control of the saw, which can result in the skating or bouncing of the bar and chain along the limb or log.
▪
Never run the chainsaw indoors. Your chainsaw produces poisonous exhaust as soon as the combustible engine is started, which may be colourless and odourless. To use this product can generate dust, mists and fumes containing chemicals known to cause reproductive harm. Be aware of harmful dust, mist (such as saw dust or oil mist from chain lubrication) and protect yourself properly.
▪
Wear gloves and keep your hand warm. Prolonged use of chainsaws exposing the operator to vibrations may produce whitefinger disease. In order to reduce the risk of whitefinger disease, please wear gloves and keep your hand warm. If any of the whitefinger symptoms appear, seek medical advice immediately.

POWXG3026 EN
▪ Drive in the spiked bumper of the chainsaw directly behind the intended hinge and pivot the saw around this point. The spiked bumper rolls against the trunk.
▪ Only chain, guide bar and spark plug can be replaced by the user himself. Always make sure you replace with correct material as stated in the specifications of the manual.
6.2.1 Kickback safety precautions
KICKBACK may occur when the NOSE or TIP of the guide bar touches an object, or when wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a lightning-fast reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back toward the operator.
PINCHING the saw chain along the BOTTOM of the guide bar may PULL the saw forward away from the operator.
PINCHING the saw chain along the TOP of the guide bar may PUSH the guide bar rapidly back toward the operator.
Any of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the saw, which could result in serious personal injury.
▪ With a basic understanding of kickback, you can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden surprise contributes to accidents.
▪
Keep a good firm grip on the saw with both hands, the right hand on the rear handle, and the left hand on the front handle, when the engine is running. Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw handles. A firm grip will help you reduce kickback and maintain control of the saw. Don’t let go.
▪ Make sure that the area in which you are cutting is free from obstructions. Do not let the nose of the guide bar contact a log, branch, or any other obstruction which could be hit while you are operating the saw.
▪ Cut at high engine speeds.
▪ Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
▪ Follow manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
▪ Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer or the equivalent.
NOTE: Low-kickback saw chain is chain that has met the kickback performance.
WARNING: Kickback can lead to dangerous loss of control of the chain saw and result in serious or fatal injury to the saw operator or to anyone standing close by. Always be alert. Rotational kickback and pinch-kickback are major chain saw operational dangers and the leading cause of most accidents.
Beware of:
▪ Rotational kickback (Fig. 1a)
A = kickback path
B = kickback reaction zone
▪ The push (pinch kickback) and pull reactions a = pull (Fig. 1b)
B = solid objects
C = push

8.10 Fitting the guide bar and chain
POWXG3026 EN
Warning! Wear protective gloves! There is a danger of injury from the sharp cutting teeth!
Note: pay close attention to the running direction of the saw chain (31) on the bar (30) and at the base plate.
Depending on wear, the bar (30) can be turned.
▪ Undo the nut (36) using the open-ended spanner.
▪ Remove the sprocket cover (38).
▪ Lay the saw chain (31) over the blade (30) starting at the tip.
▪
Now fit the bar (30) and saw chain (31.
▪ Lay the guide rail (41) over the bar guide (39), while inserting the chain tensioner pin (45) in the blade hole (40). At the same time, lay the saw chain (31) over the chain sprocket
(43).
▪ Now you can tighten the saw chain (31) by turning adjustment screw (46) clockwise.
▪
Replace the sprocket cover (38) and tighten the nut (36) gently.
8.11 Chain tensioning and adjustment check
Note: if chain is difficult to rotate on guide bar or if it binds, too much tension has been applied. This requires minor adjustment as follows:
Loosen the bar retaining nuts so they are finger tight. Decrease tension by turning the bar adjustment screw counter clockwise slowly. Move chain back and forth on bar. Continue to adjust until chain rotates freely, but fits snugly. Increase tension by turning bar adjustment screw clockwise.
When saw chain has proper tension, hold nose of bar in the uppermost position and tighten the 2 bar retaining nuts securely.
Caution: a new saw chain stretches, requiring adjustment after as few as 5 cuts. This is normal with a new chain, and the interval between future adjustments will lengthen quickly.
Caution: if saw chain is too loose or too tight, the sprocket, bar, chain, and crankshaft bearings will wear more rapidly.
8.12 Lubrication
8.12.1 Filling in chain oil
To prevent dirt getting inside the tank, clean the oil tank cap before opening. Check the contents of the oil tank during sawing work by checking the oil gauge. Close the oil tank cap tightly and wipe away any spills.
Copyright © 2021 VARO P a g e | 14 www.varo.com
POWXG3026 EN
8.12.2 Chain lubrication
To prevent excessive wear, the saw chain and guide bar must be evenly lubricated during operation.
Lubrication is automatic. Never work without chain lubrication. If the chain runs dry, the entire cutting apparatus will quickly become severely damaged. It is therefore important to check both chain lubrication and the oil gauge every use.
Never use the saw when the oil level is below the “Min.” mark.
−
Min.: When only approx. 5 mm of oil is visible at the lower rim of the oil gauge, you must top up with oil.
−
Max.: Top up with oil until the window is full.
8.12.3 Checking the automatic lubrication
Before commencing work, check the automatic chain lubrication and oil gauge. Switch on the chain saw and hold it above the ground. Be careful not to allow the chain saw to touch the ground. For safety reasons it is best to keep a clearance of at least 20 cm. If you now see growing traces of oil, the chain lubrication system is working correctly. If there are no traces of oil at all, try cleaning the oil outlet, the upper chain tensioning borehole (E) and the oil duct, or contact your Customer Service.
8.13 Sharpening the saw chain
You can have your saw chain sharpened fast and correctly by specialist dealers, from whom you can also obtain chain sharpening equipment to enable you to sharpen the chain yourself.
Please follow the corresponding operating instructions.
Take care of your tools. Keep your tools sharp and clean to enable you to work well and safely.
Follow the maintenance regulations and the instructions for changing tools
8.14 Attaching the extension attachment
Caution! Do not use the extension attachment / shaft (54) in combination with the cutting blade / spool!
Note: use the extension attachment / shaft (54) for working at greater heights.
▪ Fit the extension attachment / shaft (54) between the engine unit and the hedge trimmer / chain saw. The assembly is carried out in the same manner as for the attachments described previously.
8.15 Fitting/ removing the protective guard

Caution: Always use the carrying harness when working with the device. Put on the carrying harness as soon as you have started the engine and it is ticking over. Turn off the engine before removing the carrying harness.
8.20 Fuel handling
8.20.1 Fuel safety
Never start the machine:
▪ If you have spilt fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and allow remaining fuel to evaporate.
▪ 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.
▪
If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks from the fuel cap and fuel lines.
8.20.2 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.
▪ 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.
▪ Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete service is carried out before long-term storage.
▪ The transport guard must always be fitted to the cutting attachment when the machine is being transported or in storage.
▪
Secure the machine during transport.
▪ In order to prevent unintentional starting of the engine, the spark plug cap must always be removed during long-term storage, if the machine is not under close supervision and when performing all service measures.
Take care when handling fuel. Bear in mind the risk of fire, explosion and inhaling fumes.

POWXG3026 EN
8.20.3 Fuel
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.
Fuel and fuel fumes are highly inflammable and can cause serious injury when inhaled or allowed to come in contact with the skin. For this reason observe caution when handling fuel and make sure there is adequate ventilation.
8.20.4 Petrol
Always use a quality petrol/oil mixture at least 95 octane (RON).
Use low-emission petrol, also known as alkylate petrol, if it is available.
The lowest octane recommended is 95 (RON). If you run the engine on a lower octane grade than 95 so- called knocking can occur. This gives rise to a high engine temperature, which can result in serious engine damage.
When working at continuous high revs a higher octane rating is recommended.
8.20.5 Two-stroke oil
For best results and performance use two-stroke engine oil, which is specially formulated for our air-cooled two-stroke engines.
Never use two-stroke oil intended for water-cooled engines, sometimes referred to as outboard oil (rated TCW).
Never use oil intended for four-stroke engines.
A poor oil quality and/or too high oil/fuel ratio may jeopardize function and decrease the life time of catalytic converters.

8.20.6 Mixing
▪ Always mix the petrol and oil in a clean container intended for fuel.
▪ Always start by filling half the amount of the petrol to be used. Then add the entire amount of oil. Mix (shake) the fuel mixture. Add the remaining amount of petrol.
▪ Mix (shake) the fuel mixture thoroughly before filling the machine’s fuel tank.
▪ Do not mix more than one month’s supply of fuel at a time.
▪ If the machine is not used for some time the fuel tank should be emptied and cleaned.
8.20.7 Fuelling
Taking the following precautions, will lessen the risk of fire:
▪ Do not smoke or place hot objects near fuel.
▪ Always shut off the engine before refuelling.
▪ Always stop the engine and let it cool for a few minutes before refuelling.
▪ When refuelling, open the fuel cap slowly so that any excess pressure is released gently.
Copyright © 2021 VARO P a g e | 18 www.varo.com
POWXG3026
▪ Tighten the fuel cap carefully after refuelling.
▪ Always move the machine away from the refuelling area before starting.
▪ Always use a fuel container with an anti-spill valve.
▪ Clean the area around the fuel cap. Contamination in the tank can cause operating problems.
▪ Ensure that the fuel is well mixed by shaking the container before filling the tank.
9 USE
EN
Caution! Please pay attention to the statutory provisions in the relevant noise protection regulations.
Before starting the appliance, always check that:
▪ The fuel system is not leaking.
▪
The protective equipment and cutting equipment is complete and in perfect working order.
▪ All screw connections are firmly tightened.
▪ All moving parts can move smoothly and freely.
9.1 Using the machine
9.1.1 Check and starting
▪ Never use the machine without a guard nor with a defective guard.
▪ All covers must be correctly fitted and undamaged before you start the machine.
▪ Check the blade to ensure that no cracks have formed at the bottom of the teeth or by the centre hole. The most common reason why cracks are formed is that sharp corners have been formed at the bottom of the teeth while sharpening or that the blade has been used with dull teeth. Discard a blade if cracks are found.
▪ Check that the support flange is not cracked due to fatigue or due to being tightened too much. Discard the support flange if it is cracked.
▪
Check that the blade guard is not damaged or cracked. Replace the blade guard if it is exposed to impact or is cracked.
▪ Check that the trimmer head and trimmer guard are not damaged or cracked. Replace the trimmer head or trimmer guard if they have been exposed to impact or are cracked.
9.1.2 Starting and stopping
The complete clutch cover and shaft must be fitted before the machine is started, otherwise the clutch can come loose and cause personal injury.
Always move the machine away from the refuelling area before starting. Place the machine on a flat surface. Ensure the cutting attachment cannot come into contact with any object.
Make sure no unauthorized persons are in the working area, otherwise there is a risk of serious personal injury. The safety distance is 15 meters.
9.1.2.1 Cold starting:
A “cold” start of the engine means starting it after at least 5 minutes from when it was switched off or after refuelling.
▪ Starting: Ignition: Press down the “I” side of the engine switch.
▪
Primer bulb: Press the primer bulb repeatedly 6 times.
▪ Choke: Set the choke knob in the choke position.
The choke knob will automatically release by pressing the throttle trigger.
Copyright © 2021 VARO P a g e | 19 www.varo.com
POWXG3026 EN
▪ Hold the body of the machine on the ground using your left hand (CAUTION! Not with your foot!). Grip the starter handle, slowly pull out the cord with your right hand until you feel some resistance (the starter pawls grip), now quickly and powerfully pull the cord. Never twist the starter cord around your hand. Repeat pulling the cord until engine firing occur.
▪
Repeat pulling the cord until engine starts. When the engine starts, allow the engine to warm up with the throttle lock engaged. As soon as the engine is running, press first the safety lock-out (1) and then the throttle (9) to de-activate the choke and activate the attached cutting equipment. When engine is running at idle speed with throttle lever released, the attached cutting equipment must be stationary!
Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and do not let go of the starter handle when the cord is fully extended. This can damage the machine.
Do not put any part of your body in marked area. Contact can result in burns to the skin, or electrical shock if the spark plug cap has been damaged. Always use gloves. Do not use a machine with damaged spark plug cap.
IMPORTANT! If the starter rope is pulled repeatedly with the choke on, it may flood the engine and make starting difficult.
If you happen to food the engine, repeat the hot start procedure a few times to eliminate any excess fuel.
9.1.2.2 Hot starting
To hot start the engine immediately after it has stopped, follow steps 1 and 4 of the above procedure. The choke lever (11) does not to be pulled out to start a warm motor.
9.1.2.3 Stopping
Stop the engine by switching off the on/OFF switch (2).
9.2 General working instructions
IMPORTANT! This section describes the basic safety precautions for working with brush cutters and trimmers.
If you encounter a situation where you are uncertain how to proceed you should ask an expert.
Contact your dealer or your service workshop.
Avoid all usage which you consider to be beyond your capability.
You must understand the difference between forestry clearing, grass clearing and grass trimming before use.
9.2.1 Basic working techniques
Always slow the engine to idle speed after each working operation. Long periods at full throttle without any load on the engine can lead to serious engine damage.
Sometimes branches or grass get caught between the guard and cutting attachment. Always stop the engine before cleaning.
Machines fitted with grass blades can be thrown violently to the side when the blade comes into contact with a fixed object. This is called blade thrust.
A blade thrust can be violent enough to cause the machine and/or operator to be propelled in any direction, and possibly lose control of the machine.
Blade thrust can occur without warning if the machine snags, stalls or binds.
Copyright © 2021 VARO P a g e | 20 www.varo.com
POWXG3026 EN
Blade thrust is more likely to occur in areas where it is difficult to see the material being cut.
Avoid cutting with the area of the blade between the 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions. Because of the speed of rotation of the blade, blade thrust can occur if you attempt to cut thick stems with this area of the blade.
9.2.2 Grass clearing using a grass blade
Grass blades and grass cutters must not be used on woody stems.
A grass blade is used for all types of tall or coarse grass.
The grass is cut down with a sideways, swinging movement, where the movement from rightto-left is the clearing stroke and the movement from left-to- right is the return stroke. Let the lefthand side of the blade (between 8 and 12 o’clock) do the cutting.
If the blade is angled to the left when clearing grass, the grass will collect in a line, which makes it easier to collect, e.g. by raking.
Try to work rhythmically. Stand firmly with your feet apart. Move forward after the return stroke and stand firmly again.
Let the support cup rest lightly against the ground. It is used to protect the blade from hitting the ground.
Reduce the risk of material wrapping around the blade by following these instructions:
▪ Always work at full throttle.
▪ Avoid the previously cut material during the return stroke.
Stop the engine, unclip the harness and place the machine on the ground before you start to collect the cut material.
9.2.2.1 Prevent kickback
When working with the cutting blade there is a risk of kickback if the blade strikes against solid obstacles (tree trunks, branches, tree stumps, rocks or similar). This will result in the cutting tool being catapulted back against the direction of rotation. This can lead to the loss of control of the appliance. Do not use the cutting blasé near fences, metal posts, boundary stones or foundations. To cut low density shrubs, position the appliance. (Fig. 10)
9.2.3 Grass trimming with a trimmer head
9.2.3.1 Trimming (Fig. 11)
Hold the trimmer head just above the ground at an angle. It is the end of the cord that does the work. Let the cord work at its own pace. Never press the cord into the area to be cut.
The cord can easily remove grass and weeds up against walls, fences, trees and borders, however it can also damage sensitive bark on trees and bushes, and damage fence posts.
Reduce the risk of damaging plants by shortening the cord to 10-12 cm and reducing the engine speed.
9.2.3.2 Clearing (Fig. 12)
The clearing technique removes all unwanted vegetation. Keep the trimmer head just above the ground and tilt it. Let the end of the cord strike the ground around trees, posts, statues and the like.
CAUTION! This technique increases the wear on the cord.
Copyright © 2021 VARO P a g e | 21 www.varo.com
POWXG3026 EN
The cord wears quicker and must be fed forward more often when working against stones, brick, concrete, metal fences, etc., than when coming into contact with trees and wooden fences.
When trimming and clearing you should use less than full throttle so that the cord lasts longer and to reduce the wear on the trimmer head.
9.2.3.3 Cutting (Fig. 13)
The trimmer is ideal for cutting grass that is difficult to reach using a normal lawn mower. Keep the cord parallel to the ground when cutting. Avoid pressing the trimmer head against the ground as this can ruin the lawn and damage the tool.
Do not allow the trimmer head to constantly come into contact with the ground during normal cutting. Constant contact of this type can cause damage and wear to the trimmer head.
9.2.3.4 Sweeping (Fig. 14)
The fan effect of the rotating cord can be used for quick and easy clearing up. Hold the cord parallel to and above the area to be swept and continuously move the tool from left to right.
When cutting and sweeping you should use full throttle to obtain the best results.
9.2.4 Working with the hedge trimmer (Fig. 15)
▪ Assume a secure position, using two hands to hold the trimmer and switch on.
▪
Trim both sides of the hedge, starting at the bottom. This prevents cuttings falling into the area yet to be cut.
▪ Pass the blade lightly through the surface of the hedge. Do not attempt to cut too deep.
▪ Trim the top of the hedge.
▪ For older hedges that require cutting back substantially, use pruning shears to cut the thicker branches and then finish the job with the hedge trimmer.
▪
Never use the hedge trimmer without check the tightness of the bracket .
9.2.5 Working with chain saw
9.2.5.1 Sawing techniques
Warning! Always pay attention to the falling clippings.
Warning! Be aware of the danger of branches swinging back.
Note: Place the stop (33) on the branch. This will help you work more safely and quietly.
Sawing off small branches (Fig. 16)
▪ Saw small branches (Ø0-8 cm) from the top down.
Sawing of larger branches (Fig. 17)
▪ When sawing larger branches (Ø8-25 cm), first make a relief cut (A). A relief cut also prevents peeling of the bark on the main trunk.
▪ Saw from the top (B) to the bottom (A).
Saw in sections (Fig. 18)
Trim long or thick branches before you make the final cut.
9.3 Working safely
▪ Keep the appliance, cutting mechanism and the chain guard in good condition to prevent injury.
▪ If the appliance had been dropped, check for significant damage or defects.
▪ Observe the specified working angle max. 60° ±10° to ensure safe working (Fig. 19)
▪
Do not use the appliance while standing on a ladder or with unsteady footing.
Copyright © 2021 VARO P a g e | 22 www.varo.com
POWXG3026 EN
▪ Do not be tempted into making a poorly considered cut. You could endanger yourself and others.
▪ Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
▪ Change your working position regularly. Using the appliance for a long time can lead to vibration-related circulation disorders of the hands. You can extend the usage duration by using appropriate gloves or by taking regular breaks. Note that any personal predisposition to poor blood circulation, low external temperatures or large gripping forces can reduce the usage period.
10 CLEANING
10.1 Cleaning the engine unit
Note: clean the appliance thoroughly after every use.
▪
Always switch off the appliance before cleaning and the disconnected the spark plug connector (10).
▪ Clean the appliance regularly with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Make sure that no water can penetrate into the interior of the appliance.
10.2 Cleaning the chain saw
The chain saw must be cleaned of saw dust at regular intervals.
▪ Remove the sprocket cover (38).
▪ Remove the saw chain (31) from the bar (30) and clean the guide rail (41).
▪ Keep the saw chain (31) sharp and check the tension, check the oil level and the oil supply.
10.3 Cleaning the hedge trimmer
▪ Check the hedge trimmer for loose screws on the cutter bar (20) and tighten these if necessary.
▪ Remove stuck cuttings.
▪ Maintain the cutter bar (20) using an oil spray or an oil can.
10.4 Cleaning the trimmer and brush cutter attachment
▪
Remove stuck cuttings.
▪ Keep the cutting blade (49) sharp to facilitate your work.
11 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
11.1 Air filter
The air filter must be regularly cleaned to remove dust and dirt in order to avoid:
▪ Carburettor malfunctions
▪ Starting problems
▪
Loss of engine power
▪ Unnecessary wear to engine parts
▪ Excessive fuel consumption
Clean the filter every 25 hours, or more regularly if conditions are exceptionally dusty.
11.1.1 Cleaning the air filter (Fig. 20)
Remove the air filter cover (16) 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.
Copyright © 2021 VARO P a g e | 23 www.varo.com
POWXG3026 EN
11.2 Fuel filter
When the engine runs short of fuel supply, check the fuel cap and the fuel filter for blockage.
11.3 Spark plug
The spark plug condition is influenced by:
Incorrect carburettor adjustment.
An incorrect fuel mixture (too much or incorrect type of oil).
A dirty air filter.
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug electrodes, which may result in operating problems and starting difficulties.
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.
Recommended Spark plug type:
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.
