cord, on the protector extension at the first use.
To remove the protector extension, place a hex wrench or flat-blade
screwdriver into the small notch provided on the locking nub. Press

When replacing an accessory with another, the weight balance
of the equipment may change. In such case, adjust the hanger
position and shoulder harness length as follows.
To change the hanger position, loosen the fixing screw on the
hanger and then move the hanger (A).
Adjust the hanger position and shoulder harness length so that:
• the hanger positions 750 mm or higher from the ground,
• the cutting tool positions 100 mm to 300 mm high from the
ground and
• the unguarded part of cutting tool is horizontally 750 mm or
farther away from the hanger.
After adjusting the hanger position, tighten the screw with a wrench
or screwdriver (depending on the power unit) securely.
Using a nylon cutting head
During operation, use the tip of the nylon cutting cord for cut.
As the nylon cutting cord is worn and shortened with the cutting
operation, the operator needs to feed it manually.
To feed the nylon cutting cord, tap the nylon cutting head on the
ground while it rotates around 6,000 min
