Transporting - Honda UMK431 Owner's Manual

TRANSPORTING
BEFORE LOADING
If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for
at least 15 minutes before loading the trimmer on
the transport vehicle. A hot engine and exhaust
system can burn you and can ignite some
materials.
Always turn the ignition switch to the OFF
position. Make sure the fuel cap is securely
tightened.
LOADING
The trimmer may be secured by suitable clamps,
hangers or straps. Secure the trimmer by at least
two points along the drive shaft tube. Avoid
securing the trimmer by the engine, cutting head/
gearbox or handle area. The trimmer should be
secured in a horizontal position, with the engine
upright as shown.
Don't hang the trimmer by the gearbox or cutting
head, or they may be damaged.
