.
The vibration damping system decreases vibration in the
handles to a minimum which makes the operation
easier.

Do a visual check for deformation and damage.
3. Make sure that the vibration damping units are
correctly attached.
To do a check of the quick-release mechanism

Release and attach the quick-release mechanism to
make sure that it operates correctly.
To do a check of the muffler
WARNING: Do not use a product with a
defective muffler.
WARNING: The muffler becomes very hot
during and after operation and also at idle
speed. Use protective gloves to prevent

The muffler keeps noise levels to a minimum and points
exhaust fumes away from the operator.

Note: The inner surfaces of the muffler contain
chemicals that can cause cancer. Be careful not to
touch these elements if the muffler is damaged.
