FILLING THE TANK
■
Clean surface around fuel cap to prevent
contamination.
■
Loosen fuel cap slowly to release pressure and to
keep fuel from escaping around the cap.
■
Carefully pour fuel mixture into the tank. Avoid spillage.
■
Prior to replacing the fuel cap, clean and inspect
the gasket.
■
Immediately replace fuel cap and hand tighten.
Wipe upany fuel spillage. Move 9 m away from
refueling site before starting engine.
Note:
It is normal for smoke to be emitted from a new
engine during and after first use.
WARNING
Always shut off engine before fueling. Never add
fuel to a machine with a running or hot engine.
Move at least 9 m from refueling site before
starting engine. Do not smoke!

STARTING AND STOPPING (Fig. 4a - 4b)
WARNING
Never start or run the engine inside a closed or
poorly ventilated area; breathing exhaust fumes
can kill.
NOTE:
Be sure to return the stop switch to the "I" (RUN)
position before trying to start unit.
OPERATING THE TRIMMER (Fig. 5)
RBC30SESA :
Hold the trimmer with the right hand on the
rear handle and the left hand on the front handle.
RBC30SBSA:
Hold the trimmer with the right hand on the
trigger handle and the left hand on the left handle.
Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation.
Trimmer should be held at a comfortable position with the
trigger handle about hip height.
Always operate trimmer at full throttle. Cut tall grass
from the top down. This will prevent grass from wrapping
around the shaft housing and string head which may
cause damage from overheating. If grass becomes
wrapped around the string head, stop the engine,
disconnect the spark plug wire, and remove the grass.
Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result in lubricant
dripping from the silencer.

OPERATING THE BRUSHCUTTER (Fig. 5)
RBC30SESA:
Hold the brushcutter with the right hand on
the rear handle and the left hand on the front handle.
RBC30SBSA:
Hold the brushcutter with the right hand on
the trigger handle and the left hand on the left handle.
Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation.
Brushcutter should be held at a comfortable position with
the trigger handle about hip height. Maintain your grip and
balance on both feet. Position yourself so that you will
not be drawn off balance by the kick-back reaction of the
cutting blade.
Adjust the shoulder strap to position the brushcutter at
a comfortable operating position and to assure that the
shoulder strap will reduce the risk of operator contact
with the blade.
Exercise extreme caution when using the blade
with this unit. Blade thrust is the reaction which
may occur when the spinning blade contacts
anything it cannot cut. This contact may cause
the blade to stop for an instant, and suddenly
“thrust” the unit away from the object that was hit.
This reaction can be violent enough to cause the
operator to lose control of the unit. Blade thrust may
occur without warning if the blade snags, stalls or binds.
This is more likely to occur in areas where it is difficult to
see the material being cut. For cutting ease and safety,
approach the weeds being cut from the right to the left.
In the event that an unexpected object or woody stock is
encountered, this could minimise the blade thrust reaction.
CUTTING TECHNIQUE - BLADE (Fig. 8)
WARNING
Extreme care must be taken when using blades
to ensure safe operation. Read the safety
information for safe operation using the blade,
refer to “Specific Safety Rules for Brushcutter
and Blade Use” earlier in this manual.
