10.5.3 Fence / foundation trimming
Approach trimming around chain link fences, picket
fences, rock walls and foundations slowly to cut close
without whipping string against the barrier. If the string
comes in contact with rock, brick walls, or foundations, it
will break or fray. If string hits fencing, it will snap off.
10.5.4 Trimming around trees
Trim around tree trunks slowly so string does not contact
bark. Walk around the tree trimming from left to right.
Approach grass or weeds with the tip of the string and tilt
stringhead slightly forward
10.5.5 Scalping (Fig. 6)
WARNING:
Use
SCALPING. Keep a distance of 30 meters (100
feet) between operator, other people and
animals during these operations.
Scalping refers to removal of all vegetation down to the
ground. To do this, tilt the stringhead to about a 30 degree
angle to the right. By adjusting the handle you will have
better control during this operation. Do not attempt this
procedure if there is any chance that flying debris could
injure the operator, other people, or cause damage to
property.
10.5.6 Do not sweep with trimmer
Sweeping refers to tilting stringhead to sweep away debris
from walkways, etc. Your trimmer is a powerful tool and
small stones or other such debris may be hurled 50 feet
(15 metres) or more, causing injury or damage to nearby
property such as automobiles, homes and windows.
10.6 Cutting with blades
AVOID KICKOUT
Kickout refers to the reaction of a moving blade if it contacts
a strong tree, brush or a solid object. The force that results
violently pushes the blade away in an arc. Kickout may
cause loss of control resulting in injury to the operator or
bystanders. Do not use a blade near a chain link fence,
metal stakes, landscape borders or building foundations.
Do not cut with dull, cracked or damaged metal
blade. Before cutting growth, inspect for
obstructions such as boulders, metal stakes or
strands of wire from broken fences. If an obstruction
can not be removed, mark its location so that you can
avoid it with the blade. Rocks and metal will dull or
damage a blade. Wire can catch on the blade head
and flap around or be thrown into the air.
Do not use a brush cutter for cutting trees.

11 MAINTENANCE
11.1 Air filter
CAUTION: NEVER operate trimmer without the air filter or
dust and dirt will be sucked into the engine and damage it.
The air filter must be kept clean. If it becomes damaged,
install a new filter.
- Accumulated dust in the air filter will reduce engine
efficiency, increase fuel consumption and allow
abrasive particles to pass into the engine. Remove the
air filter as often as necessary to maintain in a clean
condition.
- Light surface dust can readily be removed by tapping
the filter. Heavy deposits should be washed out in soap
water.
- Remove filter cover by loosening air filter cover knob.
NOTE: Replace filter if frayed, torn, damaged
or if it cannot be cleaned.
11.2 Fuel cap / fuel filter
CAUTION: Remove fuel from unit and store in
approved
procedure. Open fuel cap slowly to release any
pressure which may have formed in fuel tank.
Keep vent on fuel cap free of debris.
- Lift fuel line and filter out of tank. A steel wire with a
hook or a paper clip works well.
- Pull off fuel filter with a twisting motion.
- Replace the fuel filter.
NOTE: Never operate the tool without the fuel
filter. Internal engine damage could result and
/ or disturb a good operation.
When the inside of the fuel tank is dirty, it can be cleaned
by rinsing the tank out with gasoline.
11.3 Carburettor adjustment
The carburettor was pre-set at the factory for optimum
performance.
When further adjustment is necessary, contact the service
