LINE HEAD USAGE
1. Always wear eye protection
such as safety goggles. Never
lean over the rotating cutting
head. Rocks or other debris
could be thrown into eyes
and face and cause serious
personal injury.
2. Keep the debris guard
attached in place at all times
when the unit is operated.
TRIMMING GRASS AND
WEEDS
•Always remember that the TIP
of the line does cutting. You
will achieve better results by
not crowding the line into the
cutting area. Allow the unit to
trim at its own pace.
1. Hold the unit so the head
is off the ground and is tilted
about 20 degrees toward the
sweep direction. (OP6)
2. You can avoid thrown debris
by sweeping from your right to
the left.
3. Use a slow, deliberate action
to cut heavy growth. The rate
of cutting motion will depend on
the material being cut. Heavy
growth will require slower
action than will light growth.
4. Never swing the unit so hard
as you are in danger of losing
your balance or control of the
unit.
5. Try to control the cutting
motion with the hip rather than
placing the full workload on the
arm and hands.
6. Take precautions to avoid
wire, grass and dead, dry, long-
stem weeds from wrapping
around the head shaft. Such
materials can stall the head
and cause the clutch to slip,
resulting in damage to the
clutch system if repeated
frequently.
ADJUSTING THE LINE
LENGTH
• Your brush cutters is equipped
with a bump feed type nylon
line head that allows the
operator to advance the line
without stopping the engine.
When the line becomes short,
lightly tap the head on the
ground while running the
engine at full throttle.
• Each time the head is
bumped, the line advance
about 1 inch(25.4 mm). For
better effect, tap the head on
bear ground or hard soil. Avoid
bumping in thick, tall grass
as the engine may stall by
overload.
• The rotating parts fastened
incorrectly may cause serious
accident to the operator.
• Make sure that the head is not
bent, warped, cracked, broken
or damaged.
• If you ind any error to the
head, discard it and change
new one.
• By using the harness, hang
the unit on your right side.
Adjust the harness length
so that the cutting head may
become parallel to the ground.
• Make sure to use harness and
cutting attachment guard. If not,
it is very dangerous when you
slip or lose your balance.
• If the grass or other object
gets caught in the head, or
if the unit starts to shake or
vibrate, turn off the engine and
check the head.
• Turn off the engine and make
sure the head has completely
stopped before checking the
blade, and removing any object
got caught in.
