Do not use the unit if your feet can reach the cutting attachment when the unit is attached to the harness.

1. Shoulder harness

Preparing the fuel

Fuel is highly inflammable and there is a risk of fire if it is handled incorrectly. Carefully read
and observe the precautions in the section of this manual titled "For safe use of your prod-
uct".
Once the refuelling is complete, securely tighten the fuel tank cap and do not forget to
check that there are no leaks or discharges of fuel from the fuel pipe, fuel system grommets,
or around the fuel tank cap. If you do find fuel leaks or discharges, stop using the product
immediately and contact your dealer to have it repaired.
If the fuel ignites, it could cause burns and fire.
There is difference in pressure between the fuel tank and the outside air. When refuelling, loosen the fuel tank cap
slightly to eliminate the difference in pressure.
Otherwise, fuel may get spewed.
NOTE
Stored fuel ages. Do not mix more fuel than you expect use in thirty (30) days. Do not mix directly in fuel tank.
3. Rotate the holder until the hole in the holder aligns with the
notch on the gear case. Use the long end of the L- wrench to
lock the holder and output shaft.
4. While holding the L-wrench, thread the trimmer head onto
the outputshaft, turning anticlockwise. Using hand pressure
only, tighten the trimmer head firmly on the output shaft.
5. Remove the L-wrench.
6. Adjust the trimmer line length to reach no further than the
line cutter on the cutting attachment shield. Trim to the cor-
rect length if necessary.
WARNING
1. Hook the harness hook to the hanger on the outer tube.
2. Wear the shoulder harness so that the hook stays at your
right hand side.
3. Adjust the length of the shoulder harness so that you can
hold and operate the machine comfortably.
IMPORTANT
Adjust the shoulder harness so the shoulder pad rests comfort-
ably on the off-side shoulder and the cutting path of the cutting
attachment is parallel to the ground. Make sure all hooks and
adjustment devices are secure.
