Starting

Move at least 3m (10ft) away from the place of refuelling. Place the brushcutter on a clean piece of ground taking care that the cutting tool does 

not come into contact with the ground or any other objects.

First place the machine on the ground.

 

Open the fuel valve. The valve opens when the lever (5) is at right angles to the 

 

ground (6). The valve closes when the lever is parallel with the ground (7).

Move the choke lever (8) to the top position (

 

).

Firmly hold the clutch case by your left hand, as illustrated.

 

Slowly pull the starter grip until resistance is felt and continue with a smart pull.

 

Do not pull out the starter rope to its full extent and do not allow the starter handle 

 

to be retracted without control, but ensure that it is retracted slowly.

Repeat the starting operation until initial ignitions are heard.

 

Depress the choke lever (

 

) and pull the starter rope again until the engine 

starts.

As soon as the engine starts, immediately tap and release the throttle, thus 

 

releasing the half-throttle lock so that the engine can run in idle.

Run the engine for approximately one minute at a moderate speed before 

 

applying full throttle.

Caution during operation:

If the throttle lever is opened fully in a no-load operation, the engine rotation is increased to 10,000 min

-1

 or more. Never operate the engine at a 

higher speed than required and at an approximate speed of 6,000 - 8,000 min

-1

.
