HEAVY WEED CUTTING
•
Install the 8 tooth 20 cm (8 in) blade. (option)
•
Observing all precautions as listed in this
manual, start the engine and using full throttle,
swing the blade in an arc as you move forward
slowly. The cutter rotates counter-clockwise
and the debris will be pushed backwards so the
work area will always be visible.
SMALL TREES
•
The unit will effectively cut small trees up to 7.5
cm (3 in) diameter using the 80 tooth 25 cm
(10 in) diameter new blade.
•
Before attempting to cut, ensure that the falling
tree will fall away from you, and if necessary,
tie a rope to the tree and have an assistant pull
it in a safe direction.
•
Do not attempt to “plunge cut”, i.e. using the
brushcutter like an axe. It is not necessary and
may cause serious damage to the brushcutter.
•
Brace your feet firmly on the ground and cut
with the left hand side of the blade.
CAUTION
1. Always cut on full throttle.
2. Never try cutting with a blunt blade.
BRUSHCUTTING
•
Install the 80 tooth blade.
•
Proceed exactly as for weed and grass cutting.
