OPERATING THE TRIMMER (Fig. 5)
Hold the trimmer with the right hand on the rear handle
and the left hand on the front handle. Keep a firm grip
with both hands while in operation. Trimmer should be
held at a comfortable position with the rear 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 bump head
which may cause damage from overheating. If grass
becomes wrapped around the bump head, stop the
engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and remove the
grass. Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result in oil
dripping from the silencer.
CUTTING TIPS (Fig. 6)
When cutting make sure the cutter head is at a slight angle
as shown while still approximately parallel to the ground
surface. In tall grass cut from the top down to ensure the
moving parts do not get tangled with the long grass.
Move the head in steady strokes from right to left as you
work through the grass.
ADVANCING THE LINE (Fig. 7)
If the line becomes short, tap the head on the ground
as shown to extend more line. Take care not to ‘crash’ it
against a hard surface.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Use only original manufacturer's replacement
parts, accessories and attachments. Failure to
do so can cause possible injury, poor perfor-
mance and may void your warranty.
You may make adjustments and repairs described
here. For other repairs, have the trimmer serviced by
an authorised service agent.
Consequences of improper maintenance may
include excess carbon deposits resulting in loss of
performance and discharge of black oily residue
dripping from the silencer.
Make sure all guards, straps, deflectors and handles
are properly and securely attached to avoid the risk of
personal injury.
the cutting attachment must not rotate in idle mode. If
this requirement is not satisfied, the idle speed needs
adjustment (Fig.10) or the machine needs an urgent
maintenance by a qualified technician.
