Use Shoulder/Waist Harness
Use of the shoulder/waist harness is
recommended for ALL Trimmer/
brushcutter use, not just blade
operation. The shoulder/waist
harness when used in a trimming
operation with nylon line head
suspends the trimmer from the
operator's shoulder and reduces
operator fatigue.
During blade operation, the same
fatigue reduction is achieved. Safety
to the operator is also enhanced by
reducing the possibility of blade
contact with the operator's hands and feet by restricting trimmer movement.
Make sure the warning sign on the back of the shoulder harness can be
read easily.
Note: In case of Emergency, disconnect the trimmer from the
harness.
Fuel
Diesel fuels and alternative fuels, such as E-15 (15% ethanol),
E -85 (85% ethanol) or any fuels not meeting ECHO
requirements are NOT approved for use in ECHO 2-stroke
gasoline engines. Use of diesel or alternative fuels may cause
performance problems, loss of power, overheating, fuel vapor
lock, and unintended machine operation, including, but not
limited to, improper clutch engagement. Diesel or alternative
fuels may also cause premature deterioration of fuel lines,
gaskets, carburetors and other engine components.
Fuel Requirements
Gasoline
- Use 89 Octane [R+M/2] (mid grade or higher) gasoline known to
be good quality. Gasoline may contain up to 10% Ethanol (grain alcohol) or
15% MTBE (methyl tertiary-butyl ether). Gasoline containing methanol
(wood alcohol) is
NOT
approved. Use of ECHO branded fuel is
recommended to extend engine life in all air-cooled 2-stroke and 2/4-stroke
hybrid engines.
