INTAKE AIR COOLING VENT
WARNING
• Never touch the cylinder, muffler, or spark plugs
with your bare hands immediately after stopping
the engine. The engine can become very hot when
in operation, and doing so could result in severe
burns.
• When checking the machine to make sure that it
is okay before using it, check the area around the
muffler and remove any wood chips or leaves
which have attached themselves to the brushcut-
ter. Failing to do so could cause the muffler to
become overheated, and that this in turn could
cause the engine to catch on fire. Always make
sure that the muffler is clean and free of wood
chips, leaves, and other waste before use.
• Check the intake air cooling vent and the area around
the cylinder cooling fins after every 25 hours of use
for blockage, and remove any waste which has at-
tached itself to the brushcutter. Note that it is neces-
sary to remove the engine cover shown in (MA13) in
order to be able to view the upper part of the cylin-
der.
IMPORTANT
• If waste gets stuck and causes blockage around the
intake air cooling vent or between the cylinder fins,
it may cause the engine to overheat, and that in turn
may cause mechanical failure on the part of the
brushcutter.

PROCEDURES TO BE PERFORMED AFTER
EVERY 100 HOURS OF USE
1. Remove the muffler, insert a screwdriver into the vent,
and wipe away any carbon buildup. Wipe away any
carbon buildup on the muffler exhaust vent and
cylinder exhaust port at the same time.
2. Tighten all screws, bolts, and fittings.
3. Check to see if any oil or grease has worked its way
in between the clutch lining and drum, and if it has
wipe it away using oil-free, lead-free gasoline.
MAINTENACE BEFORE STORAGE
1. Brushing off dirt form the machine, check damage
or slack of each part. If you find out abnormalities,
repair them for the next use.
2. Extract fuel from the tank, and loose the drain screw
of the float cabin extract fuel, turn on the engine, and
leave it running until it stops naturally.
3. Remove the spark plug and put in 1~2 cc of 2-cycle
oil in the engine. Draw the starter rope 2~3 times,
set the plug back, and stop it at the contraction
position.
4. Apply anti-rust oil to the metal parts such as the
throttle wire, put the cover on the blade, and keep it
indoor avoiding dampness.
