• Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched or snagged rotating wheel, backing pad, brush or any other accessory. Pinching or snagging causes rapid stalling of the rotating accessory which in turn causes the uncontrolled power tool to be forced in the direction opposite of the accessory's rotation at the point of the binding.
• For example, if an abrasive wheel is snagged or pinched by the workpiece, the edge of the wheel that is entering into the pinch point can dig into the surface of the material causing the wheel to climb out or kick out. The wheel may either jump toward or away from the operator, depending on direction of the wheel's movement at the point of pinching. Abrasive wheels may also break under these conditions.
• Kickback is the result of power tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below.
• a) Never place your hand near the rotating accessory. Accessory may kickback over your hand.
• b) Do not position your body in the area where power tool will move if kickback occurs. Kickback will propel the tool in direction opposite to the wheel's movement at the point of snagging.
• c) Use special care when working corners, sharp edges etc. Avoid bouncing and snagging the accessory. Corners, sharp edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the rotating accessory and cause loss of control or kickback.
• OPERATION OF QUICK RELEASE MECHANISM: Pull the strip to release the machine from you in the case of emergency.

4. Operation

Rules for Safe Operation

WARNING! DANGER

All models of trimmers and brush cutters can throw small stones, metal, or small objects, as well as the material being cut. Read these “Rules for Safe Operation” with care.

Follow the instructions in your operator's manual. Read the operator's manual carefully. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and proper use of the unit. Know how to stop the unit and shut off the engine. Know how to unhook a harnessed unit quickly.

Never allow anyone to use the unit without proper instruction. Be sure the operator wears the foot, leg, eye, face, and hearing protection from thrown objects. Keep the area clear of bystanders, children, and pets. Never allow children to operate or play with the unit.

Do not allow anyone to enter the operating DANGER ZONE with you. The danger zone is an area 15 meters in radius (about 50 feet).

Insist that persons in the RISK ZONE beyond the danger zone wear eye protection from thrown objects. If the unit must be used where there are unprotected people, operate at a low throttle speed to reduce the risk of thrown objects.

Move the stop switch to the "o" position when the engine idles; ensure it is reliable before cutting. Only continue to operate the unit when the stop switch is in good condition. Routinely check that the cutting attachment stops turning when the engine idles.

WARNING! DANGER

In addition to head, eye, face, and ear protectors, shoes to protect your feet improve your footing on slippery surfaces. Do not wear ties, jewelry, or loose, dangling clothing which could be caught in the unit.

Do not wear open-toed footwear, or go bare-foot or bare-legged. In certain situations, you must wear total face and head protection.

Diagram illustrating the 15-meter danger zone around the operator.

DANGER ZONE

NO PERSON EXCEPT OPERATOR ALLOWED WITHIN 15 METERS RADIUS DANGER ZONE. EYE, EAR, FACE, FOOT, LEG AND BODY PROTECTION MUST BE WORN BY OPERATOR. PERSONS IN ZONE OR RISK BEYOND DANGER ZONE SHOULD WEAR EYE PROTECTION AGAINST THROWN OBJECTS. RISK DIMINISHES WITH DISTANCE FROM DANGER ZONE.

Cutting with a Nylon Head

WARNING! DANGER

The proper debris shield must be in place on the unit when nylon cutting line is used. The cutting line can flap around if too much line is exposed. Always use the plastic debris shield with the cut-off knife when using nylon cutting heads.

For nearly all cutting, it is good to tilt the line head so that contact is made on the part of the line circle where the line is moving AWAY from you and the debris shield. This results in the debris being thrown AWAY from you.

WARNING! DANGER

Tilting the head to the wrong side will shoot the debris TOWARDS you. If the line head is held flat to the ground so that cutting occurs on the whole line circle, debris will be THROWN at you, drag will slow the engine down, and you will use up a lot of line.

WARNING! DANGER

Use only quality nylon monofilament line of the diameter 2.5mm. Never use wire or wire-reinforced line in place of nylon trimmer line. Load your nylon line cutting head only with nylon trimmer line of the proper diameter.

WARNING! DANGER

Use extreme caution when operating over bare spots and gravel, because the line can throw small rock particles at high speeds. Debris shields on the unit cannot stop objects which bounce or ricochet off hard surfaces.

Trimming

This is feeding the trimmer carefully into the material you wish to cut. Tilt the head slowly to direct debris away from you. If cutting up to a barrier such as a fence, wall, or tree, approach from an angle where any debris ricocheting off the barrier will fly away from you. Move the line head slowly until the grass is cut right up to the barrier, but do not jam (overfeed) the line into the barrier. If trimming up to a wire mesh or chain-linked fence, be careful to feed only up to the wire. If you go too far, the line will snap off around the wire. Trimming can be done to cut through weed stems one at a time. Place the trimmer line head near the bottom of the weed—never high up, which could cause the weed to chatter and catch the line. Rather than cut the weed right through, just use the very end of the line to wear through the stem slowly.

WARNING! DANGER

Do not use a steel blade for edging or scalping.

Scalping and Edging

Both of these are done with the line head tilted at a steep angle. Scalping is removing top growth, leaving the earth bare. Edging is trimming the grass back where it has spread over a sidewalk or driveway. During both edging and scalping, hold the unit at a steep angle and in a position where the debris, and any dislodging dirt and stones, will not come back towards you even if they ricochet off the hard surface. Although the picture shows how to edge and scalp, every operator must find for himself the angles which suit his body size and cutting situation.

WARNING! DANGER

Do not trim in any area where there are strands of fencing wire. Wear protective safety gear. Do not cut where you cannot see what the cutting device is cutting.

Cutting with a Blade

The machine is provided with a 3-tooth metal blade for cutting brush and weeds up to 3/4" in diameter.

Use of a saw blade with this machine is prohibited.

WARNING! DANGER

DO NOT USE A BRUSH CUTTER FOR CUTTING TREES.

WARNING! DANGER

Do not cut with a dull, cracked, or damaged metal blade. Before cutting growth, inspect for obstructions such as boulders, metal stakes, or strands of wire from broken fences. If an obstruction cannot be removed, mark its location so that you can avoid it with the blade. Rocks and metal will dull or damage a blade. Wire can catch on the blade head and flap around or be thrown into the air.

WARNING! DANGER

Use the shoulder harness at all times. Adjust both harness and harness clamp on the unit so that the unit hangs a few inches above ground level. The cutting head and the debris shield should be level in all directions. Harness the unit on the right side of your body.

Sc ything Weeds

This is cutting by swinging the blade in a level arc. It can quickly clear areas of field grass and weeds. Scything should not be used to cut large, tough weeds or woody growths.

NOTE: Do not use a brush blade to cut trees which exceed a diameter of 1/2 to 3/4 inches.

Scything can be done in both directions, or just in one way which results in the debris being thrown away from you. That is using the side of the blade that is rotating away from you. Tilt down the blade slightly on this same side. You will be hit by some debris if you scythe in both directions.

Cut only with the side of the blade that the debris is moving away from you.

If kickback occurs, the blade may be dull, or the material so thick and hard that you should use other tool instead of this machine.

Do not force the blade to cut. Do not change the angle of cut after into the wood. Avoid using any pressure or leverage which could cause the blade to bind or crack.

Fuel & Oil Mixture

Never fill the fuel tank to the very top. Never add fuel to the tank in a closed, non-ventilated area. Do not add fuel to this unit close to an open fire or sparks. Be sure to wipe off spilled fuel before attempting to start the engine. Do not attempt to refuel a hot engine.

Fuel used for this model is a mixture of unleaded gasoline and approved engine lubricant. When mixing gasoline with two-cycle engine oil, use only gasoline which contains NO ETHANOL or METHANOL (Types of Alcohol). Use Branded 89 octane or higher Unleaded gasoline known to be of good quality. This will help to avoid possible damage to engine fuel lines and other engine parts.

MIXTURE RATIO IS 40:1

GASOLINE-40PART, OIL-1 PART

The engine uses two-stroke fuel, a mixture of gasoline and 2-stroke lubricant 40:1.

Fuel mixture at the rate other than 40:1 may cause damage to the engine. Ensure mixture ratio is correct.

IMPORTANT: Two-stroke fuel may separate. Shake fuel container thoroughly before each use. Stored fuel ages. Do not mix more fuel than you expect to use within a month.

GASOLINE: Use branded 89 octane or higher unleaded gasoline known to be of good quality.

STORING FUEL: Store fuel only in a clean, safe, approved container. Check and follow local ordinances on type and location of storage container.

FUEL AND OIL MIXTURE: Inspect fuel tank, making sure that it is clean and fill with fresh fuel. Use a mixture of 40:1.

Preparing for Operations

WHEN MIXING GASOLINE WITH TWO CYCLE ENGINE OIL, USE ONLY GASOLINE WHICH CONTAINS NO ETHANOL OR METHANOL (TYPES OF ALCOHOL). THIS WILL HELP TO AVOID POSSIBLE DAMAGE TO ENGINE FUEL LINES AND OTHER ENGINE PARTS. DO NOT MIX GASOLINE AND OIL DIRECTLY IN THE ENGINE FUEL TANK.

IMPORTANT: Failure to follow proper fuel mix instructions may cause damage to the engine.

1. When preparing fuel mixture, mix only the amount needed for the job you are to do. Do not use fuel that has been stored longer than two months. Fuel mixture stored longer than this will cause hard starting and poor performance. If fuel mix has been stored longer than this time, it should be removed and filled with fresh mixture.

WARNING! DANGER

1. Never fill the fuel tank to the very top.
2. Never add fuel to the tank in a closed non-ventilated area.
3. Do not add fuel to this unit close to an open fire or sparks.
4. Be sure to wipe off spilled fuel before attempting to start engine.
5. Do not attempt to refuel a hot engine.

5. Maintenance & Care

Air Filter

• Accumulated dust in the air filter will reduce engine efficiency, increase fuel consumption, and allow abrasive particles to pass into the engine. Remove the air filter as often as necessary to maintain it in a clean condition.
• Light surface dust can readily be removed by tapping the filter. Heavy deposits should be washed out in suitable solvent.
• Remove filter cover by loosening air filter cover knob.

Adjusting Carburetor

NOTE: Do not adjust carburetor unless necessary. If you have trouble with the carburetor, see your dealer. Improper adjustment may cause engine damage and void warranty.

Fuel Filter

• The fuel tank is fitted with a filter. The filter is situated at the free end of the fuel pipe and can be picked out through the fuel port with a piece of hooked wire or the like.
• Check the fuel filter periodically. Do not allow dust to enter into the fuel tank. A clogged filter will cause difficulty in starting the engine or abnormalities in engine performance.
• When the filter is dirty, replace the filter. When the inside of the fuel tank is dirty, it can be cleaned by rinsing the tank out with gasoline.

Check Spark Plug

• Do not attempt to remove the plug from a hot engine in order to avoid possible damage to the threads.
• Spark gap: 0.6-0.7 mm (0.023″-0.028″)
• Fastening torque = 145-155 kg.cm (125-135 in.lb)

6. Troubleshooting

Clean or replace the plug if fouled with heavy oily deposits. Replace the plug if the center electrode is worn rounded at the end.

WARNING: Always cover the metal blade with the transportation guard while transportation and storage.
