SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Throttle trigger
lock
• Check that the throttle is
locked in the “idling
position“ when the
throttle trigger lock is in
its original position.
• Press in the throttle
trigger lock and make sure
it returns to its original
position when released.
• Ensure that the throttle
and throttle trigger lock
move easily and that their
return spring systems
function.
The throttle trigger lock is
designed to prevent the
throttle from accidentally
being engaged. When the
trigger lock (A) is pressed
into the handle (= when you
hold the handle) the throttle
(B) is released. When the
grip on the handle is
released the throttle and the
throttle trigger lock return
to their original positions.
This takes place via two
independent return spring
systems. This means that the
throttle is automatically
locked in its “idling“
position.
