3.12 Filling up with fuel
WARNING: Petrol is highly flammable. Always handle it with the utmost care to avoid all risk of burns or explosion
WARNING: This tool works with a 2 stroke mixture of petrol and oil. Always respect this ratio and never start the motor with just petrol (even for a short while) as this may lead to irreversible damage to the engine
The fuel is a mixture of unleaded 95 petrol and mineral or semi-synthetic oil for air-cooled 2 stroke engines.
Only use “fresh” unleaded 95 petrol. Only buy the quantity that you are likely to use within a month. Only transport and store petrol in containers designed specifically for this purpose and which are approved and labelled as such.
Mix in the quantity of oil required for the volume of petrol to obtain the required mixture (see section 4: technical characteristics).
Do not mix the two directly in the machine’s tank. Use an adapted container and carefully respect the mixture ratio as specified.
Always fill up with fuel while outdoors and never in an enclosed space, nor close to a flame or source of intense heat. Do not smoke while filling up with fuel.
Do not unscrew the fuel cap when the motor is on or hot.
Slowly pour the fuel into the tank with the help of a filling nozzle or funnel.
Avoid spilling petrol and make sure that you do not overfill the tank, to avoid spillage. Leave a few millimetres of space under the rim to allow the fuel to expand. Put the fuel cap back on correctly.
If some petrol is spilled, do not start the engine, move the machine away from the area of spillage and carefully wipe the edge trimmer. You should not try to start the machine until all petrol vapours have evaporated.
Close the fuel container and put it in appropriate place, protected from heat.
If you suspect a petrol leak do not start the motor, drain the tank and get your machine checked by an After-Sales centre approved by SANLI UK.
Operator’s Manual Sanli GT26 / 11
3.2 Using the petrol trimmer
Before use, always check that the safety elements are present and working properly.
Also check that the cutting and fixing elements are in good working order.
If necessary, replace or repair faulty components. Only use original parts or those approved by SANLI UK.
Do not throttle unnecessarily and check that the nylon spool stops when the throttle control is released
3.21 Starting the trimmer
The starting method differs depending on whether the motor is hot or cold.
Starting when the motor is cold
Place the tool on an even surface, hold the handle with your left hand, and hold the rear handle firmly with your right knee.
Press on the priming pump until the fuel becomes visible (2 to 3 times).
Put the Start/Stop switch into the Start position (fig. 5).
Put the choke in the start position towards the top.
Pull quickly and firmly on the starter recoil starter, then follow it back down to its initial position.
If the engine does not start after the first pull, repeat until it does.
After the engine has been running for 15 to 30 seconds, put the choker back in its initial position towards the bottom (run).
Holding the safety trigger down in the palm of your right hand, press on the throttle lever with your index finger.
Progressively action the throttle lever to increase the rotation speed of the engine and engage the nylon spool (fig.
6).
Safety trigger
Throttle lever
12 / Operator’s Manual Sanli GT26
Starting when the motor is hot
NOTE: When starting the machine while hot or after the first time it is started, you do not need to use the choke. To start the machine when hot, repeat the same steps as for when starting from cold, but do not use the choke
WARNING: If the motor does not start after four attempts, continue as you would if the engine was cold.
3.22 Stopping the trimmer
Release the throttle lever.
Put the Start/Stop switch into the STOP position.
The nylon line will stop completely after a brief moment.
3.23 Adjusting the cutting wire during use
Hold the cutting head in rotation parallel to the ground, lightly tap the cutting head on the ground and the spool will release a length of line automatically. If this is too long, a blade affixed to the deflector will cut the wires to their optimal length. Do not tap the mower head too many times to avoid using up too much line.
Operator’s Manual Sanli GT26 / 13
3.24 Advice for cutting
Cut the grass by swinging the tool from left to right and progress slowly in this way, maintaining the cutting deflector horizontal and parallel to the ground. Light cutting is preferable to heavy cutting as it allows the grass to be projected far from the spool, stopping it from becoming clogged.
To cut tall grass, proceed in steps, from the top to the root of the grass.
Never cut damp grass. Do not overwork the tool.
Avoid using up the line too quickly by hitting hard objects (stones, walls, barriers, etc.).
Be very careful of the tool kicking back when it hits hard objects.
NOTE: Regularly remove cut grass that has accumulated between the spool and the edge of the deflector to stop the tool vibrating.
3.25 Changing the nylon line
Before adjusting the thermal edge trimmer, stop the engine and wait for the tool to stop completely.
Find two clips on the spool box which hold the lid down. Press with your thumb and index finger on both clips and free the spool access lid (fig. 7 and 8).
Remove the spool (fig. 9).
Repeat the operations in reverse to fix a full spool, without forgetting to feed the two wires into their metallic passage. Make sure the lid is properly closed.
14 / Operator’s Manual Sanli GT26
3.3 Cleaning, storage, transport and maintenance
Before attempting any maintenance or adjustment of the thermal edge trimmer, stop the engine
3.31 Cleaning the petrol trimmer
Cleaning the tool after every time it is used ensures that the tool works better and has a longer period of useful life.
Clean the surface of the tool with a soft damp cloth. Never clean the plastic with a chemical product that could damage it.
WARNING: Never immerse the trimmer in water or in other liquids to clean it.
Never clean the tool with a strong water jet or high-pressure water.
3.32 Storing and transporting the petrol trimmer
Be sure that the tool is stored safely and that it is stored out of reach of children
Store the machine in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight. Covering the tool with a tarpaulin is not recommended as this could cause an damp to accumulate on the tool.
For long-term storage, empty the petrol in the tank in a container and let the engine cut out as it runs out of petrol the last time you use it.
3.33 Transporting and maintaining the thermal edge trimmer
Only transport the trimmer when it is switched off.
Lubrication of the transmission
Lubricate the transmission every 25 hours or once a year. Dismount the support of the wire spool and apply some grease both at the bottom of the tube and in the moving section of the spool support (see section 3.11 Setting up the thermal edge trimmer, page 10).
Air filter
Remove the air filter lid (component 11).
Operator’s Manual Sanli GT26 / 15
Carefully remove the foam-filtering element, and wash it in warm water with a few drops of washing up liquid until it is perfectly clean and that all traces of grease and dirt have disappeared.
WARNING: Never clean the filter in petrol, White spirit or any other thinner, as these products can cause deterioration to the filtering foam. Replace the filter element if it is damaged or very dirty.
Rinse the filter with clean water and delicately press it to remove the maximum amount of water. Leave it to dry in the open air until it is completely dry.
Once dry, moisten the filter with clean motor oil
WARNING: Do not wring the filter foam to rinse it, you may damage it in this way.
Clean the inside of the filter box with a clean cloth.
Put the filter foam back in its place and properly close the lid of the air filter box.
Spark plug
Remove the spark plug cap. Unscrew and remove the spark plug.
Remove the layer of carbon on the spark plug electrodes with a metallic brush.
Check the electrode gap with the help of a gauge (ideally 0.5 mm)
If the spark plug is worn or damaged, replace it with a new spark plug made for this motor.
Put the spark plug back in place by screwing it back in by hand, screwing it in this way until you have contact with the base, then tighten it half-a-turn more with the help of the spanner.
NOTE: A spark which is too tight may cause irreversible damage to the bolt.
Replace the spark plug cap by pressing it in firmly into place.
