How to start a petrol grass trimmer

Starting a petrol grass trimmer is quick and easy. Follow the quick steps on this short instructional video. First prime the carburetor, by pressing the priming bulb five time. This ensures there is enough fuel into the engine to start the engine. Activate the choke and pull the starter cord until the engine ignites. Once the engine has stopped deactivate the choke and pull the starter cord again until the engine starts. Lastly rev the engine to obtain a normal RPM.

Safer work at fast pace along power line corridors

Chainsaw user Bill Raleigh and his colleagues are now working smarter – using better working techniques and working more safely and ergonomically.
