Never use this equipment after consumption of alcohol or drugs, or if feeling
tired or ill.
National regulation can restrict the use of the machine.
Intended use of the machine
This equipment is only intended for cutting grass, weeds, bushes,
undergrowth. It should not be used for any other purpose such as edging or
hedge cutting as this may cause injury.
Personal protective equipment
The clothing worn should be functional and appropriate, i.e. it should be tight-
tting but not cause hindrance. Do not wear either jewelry or clothing which
could become entangled with bushes or shrubs.
In order to avoid either head-, eye-, hand-or foot injuries as well as to protect
your hearing the following protective equipment and protective clothing must
be used during operation.
Always wear a helmet where there is a risk of falling objects. The protective
helmet (1) is to be checked at regular intervals for damage and is to be
replaced at the latest after 5 years. Use only approved protective helmets.
The visor (2) of the helmet (or alternatively goggles) protects the face from
ying debris and stones. During operation always wear goggles, or a visor to
prevent eye injuries.
Wear adequate noise protection equipment to avoid hearing impairment (ear
muffs (3), ear plugs etc.).
The work overalls (4) protect against ying stones and debris.
We strongly recommend that the user wears work overalls.
Gloves (5) are part of the prescribed equipment and must always be worn
during operation.
When using the equipment, always wear sturdy shoes (6) with a non-slip
sole. This protects against injuries and ensures a good footing.

Start the brushcutter only in accordance with the instructions.
Do not use any other methods for starting the engine!
Use the brushcutter and the tools only for such applications as specied.
Only start the engine, after the entire assembly is done. Operation of the
device is only permitted after all the appropriate accessories are attached!
Before starting make sure that the cutting tool has no contact with hard
objects such as branches, stones etc. as the cutting tool will revolve when
starting.
The engine is to be switched off immediately in case of any engine problems.
Should the cutting tool hit stones or other hard objects, immediately switch off
the engine and inspect the cutting tool.
Inspect the cutting tool at short regular intervals for damage (detection of
hairline cracks by means of tapping-noise test).
If the equipment gets heavy impact or fall, check the condition before
continuing work. Check the fuel system for fuel leakage and the controls
and safety devices for malfunction. If there is any damage or doubt, ask our
authorized service center for the inspection and repair.
Operate the equipment only with the shoulder harness attached which is
to be suitably adjusted before putting the brushcutter into operation. It is
essential to adjust the shoulder harness according to the user size to prevent
fatigue occurring during use. Never hold the cutter with one hand during use.
During operation always hold the brushcutter with both hands.
Always ensure a safe footing.
Operate the equipment in such a manner as to avoid inhalation of the exhaust
gases. Never run the engine in enclosed rooms (risk of gas poisoning).
Carbon monoxide is an odorless gas.
Switch off the engine when resting and when leaving the equipment
unattended, and place it in a safe location to prevent danger to others or
damage to the machine.
Never put the hot brushcutter onto dry grass or onto any combustible
materials.
Always install the approved cutting tool guard onto the equipment before
starting the engine.
Otherwise contact with the cutting tool may cause serious injury.
All protective installations and guards supplied with the machine must be
used during operation.
Never operate the engine with faulty exhaust mufer.
Shut off the engine during transport.
When transporting the equipment, always attach the cover to the metal blade.
Ensure safe position of the equipment during car transportation to avoid fuel
leakage.
When transporting, ensure that the fuel tank is completely empty.
When unloading the equipment from the truck, never drop the Engine to the
ground or this may severely damage the fuel tank.
Except in case of emergency, never drop or cast the equipment to the ground
or this may severely damage the equipment.
Remember to lift the entire equipment from the ground when moving the
equipment. Dragging the fuel tank is highly dangerous and will cause damage
and leakage of fuel, possibly causing re.
Refueling
Shut off the engine during refueling, keep away from open ames and do not
smoke.
Avoid skin contact with mineral oil products. Do not inhale fuel vapor. Always
wear protective gloves during refueling. Change and clean protective clothing
at regular intervals.
Take care not to spill either fuel or oil in order to prevent soil contamination
(environmental protection). Clean the brushcutter immediately after fuel has
been spilt.
Avoid any fuel contact with your clothing. Change your clothing instantly if
fuel has been spilt on it (to prevent clothing catching re).
Inspect the fuel cap at regular intervals making sure that it can be securely
fastened and does not leak.
Carefully tighten the fuel tank cap. Change location to start the engine (at
least 3 meters away from the place of refueling).
Never refuel in closed rooms. Fuel vapors accumulate at ground lever (risk of
explosions).
Only transport and store fuel in approved containers. Make sure the fuel
stored is not accessible to children.

Method of operation
Only use in good light and visibility. During the winter season beware of
slippery or wet areas, ice and snow (risk of slipping). Always ensure a safe
footing.
Never cut above waist height.
Never stand on a ladder.
Never climb up into trees to perform cutting operation.
Never work on unstable surfaces.
Remove sand, stones, nails etc. found within the working range.
Foreign particles may damage the cutting tool and can cause dangerous
kick-backs.
Before commencing cutting, the cutting tool must have reached full working
speed.
When using metal blades, swing the tool evenly in half-circle from right to left,
like using a scythe.
If grass or branches get caught between the cutting tool and guard, always
stop the engine before cleaning. Otherwise unintentional blade rotation may
cause serious injury.
Take a rest to prevent loss of control caused by fatigue. We recommend to
take a 10 to 20-minute rest every hour.
Cutting Tools
Use an applicable cutting tool for the job in hand.
Nylon cutting heads (string trimmer heads) are suitable for trimming lawn
grass.
Metal blades are suitable for cutting weeds, high grasses, bushes, shrubs,
underwood, thicket, and the like.
Never use other blades including metal multi-piece pivoting chains and ail
blades. Otherwise serious injury may result.
When using metal blades, avoid “kickback” and always prepare for an
accidental kickback. See the section “Kickback” and “Kickback prevention.”
Kickback (blade thrust)
Kickback (blade thrust) is a sudden reaction to a caught or bound metal
blade. Once it occurs, the equipment is thrown sideway or toward the
operator at great force and it may cause serious injury.
Kickback occurs particularly when applying the blade segment between 12
and 2 o’clock to solids, bushes and trees with 3 cm or larger diameter.
To avoid kickback:
Apply the segment between 8 and 11 o’clock;
Never apply the segment between 12 and 2 o’clock;
Never apply the segment between 11 and 12 o’clock and between 2 and
5 o’clock, unless the operator is well trained and experienced and does it at
his/her own risk;
Never use metal blades close to solids, such as fences, walls, tree trunks
and stones;
Never use metal blades vertically, for such operations as edging and
trimming hedges.
Vibration
People with poor circulation who are exposed to excessive vibration may
experience injury to blood vessels or the nervous system. Vibration may
cause the following symptoms to occur in the ngers, hands or wrists: “Falling
asleep” (numbness), tingling, pain, stabbing sensation, alteration of skin color
or of the skin. If any of these symptoms occur, see a physician!
To reduce the risk of “white nger disease”, keep your hands warm during
operation and well maintain the equipment and accessories.
Maintenance instructions
Have your equipment serviced by our authorized service center, always using
only genuine replacement parts. Incorrect repair and poor maintenance can
shorten the life of the equipment and increase the risk of accidents.
The condition of the cutter, in particular of the cutting tool of the protective
devices and also of the shoulder harness must be checked before
commencing work. Particular attention is to be paid to the metal blades which
must be correctly sharpened.
Turn off the engine and remove spark plug connector when replacing or
sharpening cutting tools, and also when cleaning the cutter or cutting tool.

Inspection and rell of engine oil
Perform the following procedure, with the engine cooled down.
Assure that the engine is on a at horizontal surface and conrm if the oil level is between the lower or upper limit of the oil indicator.
If the oil level is below the lower limit, remove the oil cap and add oil.
The area surrounding the external marks is transparent, so the amount of oil inside can be checked without having to remove the oil cap.
However, if oil pipe becomes extremely dirty, visibility may be lost, and oil level will have to be checked against stepped section on inside of
oil pipe.
You may need to rell oil approximately every 10 operating hours (every 10 refuelings).
If the oil changes in color or mixes with dirt, replace it with new one. (For the interval and method of replacement, refer to P 22.)
Recommended oil: SAE 10W-30 oil of API Classication, Class SF or higher (4-stroke engine for automobile)
Oil volume: Approx. 0.10L
NOTE: If the engine is not positioned as illustrated on a horizontal surface, an inaccurate indication of oil level may occur and oil may be
overlled. Filling oil above the upper limit may cause oil contamination and/or white smoke.
Replacement of oil: “Oil cap”
Remove dust or dirt near the oil rell port, and detach the oil cap.
Keep the detached oil cap free of sand or dust. Otherwise, any sand or dust adhering to the oil cap may cause irregular oil circulation or
wear on the engine parts, which will result in troubles.
BEFORE START OF OPERATION
(1) Keep the engine level, and detach the oil cap.
(2) Fill with oil to upper limit mark.
Use oil bottle when lling.
(3) Securely tighten the oil cap. Insufcient tightening may cause oil leakage.

Refueling
WARNING: Shut off the engine before refueling, keep away from
open ames and do not smoke.
Loosen the tank cap a little to release the tank pressure.
Detach the tank cap, and refuel, discharging air by tilting the fuel tank so that
the refuel port will be oriented upward. DO NOT ll fuel up to the top of the
tank.
Wipe the outside of the tank cap to prevent debris from entering into the fuel
tank.
After refueling, securely tighten the tank cap.
If there is any aw or damage on the tank cap, replace it.
The tank cap wears out in course of time. Replace it every two to three years.
DO NOT put fuel in the oil ll port.

Note
Do not replace oil with the engine in a tilted position.
Filling with oil while engine is tilted leads to overlling which causes oil contamination and/or white smoke.
After relling oil
Wipe with a rag any spilled oil immediately.
REFUELING
Handling of fuel
It is necessary to handle fuel with utmost care. Fuel may contain substances similar to solvents. Refueling must be performed in a sufciently
ventilated room or in the open air. Never inhale fuel vapor, and keep fuel away from you. If you touch fuel repeatedly or for a long time, the
skin becomes dry, which may cause skin disease or allergy. If fuel enters into the eye, clean the eye with fresh water. If your eye remains still
irritated, consult your doctor.
Storage period of fuel
Fuel should be used within a period of 4 weeks, even if it is kept in a special container in a well-ventilated and shaded area.
Otherwise, fuel may deteriorate in one day.
STORAGE OF MACHINE AND REFILL TANK
Keep the machine and tank at a cool place free from direct sunshine.
Never keep the fuel in a car.
Fuel
The engine is a four-stroke engine. Be sure to use an unleaded automobile gasoline 87 or higher octane ((R+M)/2). It may contain no more than
10% alcohol (E-10).
Points for fuel
Never use a gasoline mixture which contains engine oil. Otherwise, it will cause excessive carbon accumulation or mechanical troubles.
Use of deteriorated oil will cause irregular start-up.

NOTE:
Do not pull the throttle lever unnecessarily when the engine is not running. It may cause ooding of fuel in the engine, and may cause the
engine difcult to start up.
In case of ooding of the fuel, remove the spark plug and pull the starter handle slowly to remove excess fuel. Also, dry the electrode section
of the spark plug.
If the engine res and stops, or stops soon after starting, return the choke lever to the OPEN position, and pull the starter knob a few times
again to start the engine.
If the choke lever is left in the CLOSE position, and the starter knob merely pulled repeatedly, too much fuel will be sucked in, and the engine
will become difcult to start.
Do not race the engine in warm-up operation unnecessarily.
B: Warm start
1) Keep the choke lever full open.
2) Push the primer pump repeatedly.
3) Keep the throttle lever at the idling position.
4) Pull the recoil starter strongly.
5) If it is difcult to start the engine, release the
lock-off lever (3), pull the throttle lever (2), and
move the I-O switch (1) to the throttle lock
position. With holding the I-O switch (1), release
the throttle lever (2) and the lock-off lever (3).
Then pull the starter knob.
WARNING: Pay attention that the cutting tool
rotates immediately.
6) Once the engine starts, release the lock-off
lever (3) and pull the throttle lever (2), and
release them to make the engine idle.

5) Recoil starter
Make sure you have a rm footing.
Hold the unit with your left hand and press it down rmly.
CAUTION: Do not stand or kneel on the throttle cable. The internal
wire may be pulled and the cutting tool may start rotating
unintentionally.
Do not open the throttle.
Pull the starter knob gently until a certain resistance is felt. Then, return the
starter knob, and pull it strongly.
Never pull the rope to the full extension. Once the starter knob is pulled,
never release your hand immediately. Hold the starter knob until it returns to
its original point.
6) Choke lever
Once engine starts, set choke lever to the OPEN position.
- Open the choke lever gradually while checking the engine operation. Be
sure to open the choke lever to the full in the end.
- In cold or when the engine is cooled down, never open the choke lever
suddenly. Otherwise the engine may stop.
7) Warm-up operation
Continue warm-up operation for 2 to 3 minutes.
NOTICE: Do not pull the throttle lever unnecessarily while the engine
is not running. It may cause fuel leak from the air cleaner. If it
happens, wipe leaked fuel off. Also, open the air cleaner cover

PREVENTION FROM CARBURETOR ICING
CAUTION: When environmental temperature is higher than 10°C, always
return the shutter to normal (sun mark) setting. Otherwise the
engine may be damaged by overheating.
When the environmental temperature is low and humidity is high, water vapor
may freeze inside the carburetor and the engine drives unsteadily (carburetor
icing). Change the setting of the shutter as follows if necessary.
1. Remove the screw (1).
2. Change the direction of the shutter (2) as follows:
Environment temperature is higher than 10°C: Set the shutter in normal
position (sun mark).
Environment temperature is equal or lower than 10°C: Set the shutter in
anti-icing position (snow mark).
3. Tighten the screw.

CAUTION: The cutting tools shown in the illustration are not to be sharpened.
Manual resharpening will result in imbalances of the cutting tool
causing vibrations and damage to the equipment.
NOTE: To increase the service life of the cutter blade it may be turned over
once, until both cutting edges have become blunt.
RESHARPENING THE CUTTING TOOL
NYLON CUTTING HEAD
The nylon cutting head is a dual line trimmer head that has bump & feed
mechanism.
The nylon cutting head will feed out the proper length of nylon line after tapping
the nylon cutting head on the ground by changes in centrifugal force caused by
increasing or decreasing rpms.
Operation
Increase the nylon cutting head speed to approx. 6,000 min
-1
.
Bump the nylon cutting head lightly on the ground.
The most effective cutting area is shown by the shaded area.
If the nylon cord does not feed out, rewind/replace the nylon cord by following
the procedures described under “Replacing the nylon cord.”
