handle if the product starts to turn. The gyroscopic
safety switch stops the engine if the operator releases
the handle. The blade brakes engage and the handle
stops before it can turn more than 270°.
To do a check of the gyroscopic safety switch

2–3 minutes. Refer to

2. Push the handle to the right with force. The engine
stops.
