Assembly
ASSEMBLY
Remove your Brush Cutter & Trimmer from the box
and follow the step-by-step instructions below to
assemble your machine with either a brush cutter
fixing or a nylon trimmer fixing.
Handle bar support shaft
1. Insert the handle bar shaft into the support
bracket (ensure the bottom of the shaft and
bracket are flush.
2. Tigthen the bolts using the 4mm Allen key
provided (loosely tighten at this stage as you may
need to adjust the angle of the handle bar when
fully assembled).
Handle bar
1. Attach the handle bar assembly from the left side
of the unit (as you would hold it).
2. Insert the two bolts, washers and plastic knobs
through the handle bar shaft and tighten securely
in the correct position.
3. Tighten the bolts securely at the base of the
handle bar shaft.
Wheel assembly
1. Insert the wheel axle from the left hand side so the
hole in the axle is positioned to the right of the
machine.
2. Make sure the wheel axle bolt and axle tube hole
are alligned.
3. Insert the wheel axle support nut and bolt and
tighten securely with the 4mm Allen key and 8mm
spanner.
4. Attach both wheels to the axle (make sure the tyre
tread is facing towards the blade), attach the
washers and then attach the locking wheel nut and
tighten securely with the 13mm spanner.
Plastic shield (Brush Cutter)
1. Carefully tilt the machine backwards so it rests
on its handle. It is recommended you protect the
trigger lever to prevent it from becoming
damaged or broken whilst following the rest of
these assembly steps.
2. Place the plastic shield on the bottom of the
drive shaft directly behind the spring tensioner
bracket.
3. Position two plastic shield bolts and tighten
securely into the plasic shield bracket using the
5mm Allen key.
Cut-off knife
Caution – Always wear protective gloves when
handling sharp objects.
1. Place cut off knife in position facing away from
shield.
2. Using three small screws hand tighten the cut off
knife securely in place.
Your Brush Cutter is now ready for fuel.

FUEL
• Petrol is flammable.
• Always turn off the engine and allow to cool fully before refuelling.
• Mix regular unleaded petrol and a quality 2-stroke motor oil for air-cooled
engines at a
ratio
of 25:1.
• Do not use 4-stroke oil.
• Do not mix fuel and oil in the petrol tank of the unit. Always use the mixing
bottle supplied, secure the lid and shake to mix.
• Keep naked flames away from where petrol is stored or handled.
• Do not use petrol/oil mix more than 1 month old.
• Always use caution when handling fuel. Wipe up all spills and then move the
unit at least 3m from the fueling point before starting the engine.
• Eliminate all sources of sparks or flame (i.e. smoking, open flames, or work
that can cause sparks) in the areas where fuel is mixed, poured or stored.
Note
Do not use old or regenerated oil that can cause damage to the oil pump.
HOW TO MIX FUEL
IMPORTANT
Pay attention to agitation.
1. Measure out the quantities of petrol and oil to be mixed.
2. Put some of the petrol into a clean, approved fuel container.
3. Pour in all of the oil and agitate well.
4. Pour In the rest of petrol and agitate again for at least one minute. As some
oils may be difficult to agitate depending on oil ingredients, sufficient
agitation is necessary for the engine to last long. Be careful that, if the
agitation is insufficient, there is an increased danger of early piston seizing
due to abnormally lean mixture.
FUELING THE UNIT
1. Untwist and remove the fuel cap. Rest the cap on a dustless place.
2. Put fuel into the fuel tank to 80% of the full capacity.
3. Fasten the fuel cap securely and wipe up any fuel spillage around the unit.
WARNING
1. Select bare ground for fueling.
2. Move at least 10ft (3m) away from the fueling point before starting the
engine.
3. Stop the engine before refueling the unit. At that time, be sure to sufficiently
agitate the mixed petrol in the container.
4. In the case of storing the product for a long period of time, clean the fuel tank
after rendering it empty. Next, activate the engine and empty the carburetor
of the composite fuel.
