OPErATINg INSTruCTIONS
lose control of the unit. Blade thrust can oc-
cur without warning if the blade snags, stalls,
or binds. This is more likely to occur in areas
where it is difficult to see the material being
cut. For cutting ease and safety, approach
the weeds being cut with the brush cutter,
from the right to the left. In the event an unex-
pected object or woody stock is encountered,
this practice could minimize the blade thrust
reaction.

To avoid burns from hot surfaces, never oper-
ate unit with the bottom of the engine above
waist level.
Blade
The blade is suited only for thicker weeds and
pulpy stalks. When the blade becomes dull,
it can be turned over to extend the life of the
blade.
Cutting Technique – Blade:
!
WArNINg
Extreme care must be taken when using
blades to ensure safe operation. For safe
operation using the blade, refer to "Additional
Safety Rules for Brush Cutter / Trimmer Use"
earlier in this manual.
■
Always hold brush cutter on your right
side with both hands when operating.
Use a firm grip on both handles.
■
Maintain your grip and balance on both
feet. Position yourself so that you will
not be drawn off balance by the kickback
reaction of the cutting blade.
■
Inspect and clear the area of any hidden
objects such as glass, rocks, concrete,
fencing, wire, wood, metal, etc.
■
Never use blades near sidewalks, fenc-
ing, posts, buildings or other immovable
objects.
■
Never use a blade after hitting a hard ob-
ject without first inspecting it for damage.
Do not use if any damage is detected.
■
The unit is used as a scythe, cutting from
the right to the left in a broad sweeping
action from side to side.
■
Use only the blade. To install any other
brand blade or cutting head to this brush
cutter can result in serious personal
injury.
STARTING AND STOPPING (FIG. 10 & 11)
!
WArNINg
Stay alert during start up. Once the engine
starts, the cutting attachment will operate im-
mediately, which could result in loss of control
and possible serious injury. Be sure that cut-
ting attachments are off the ground and away
from objects that could become entangled or
thrown.
Cold Start:
1. Slide the stop switch backwards, away
from the stop position.
2. Move the choke lever to the "Cold Start"
position.
3. Pump the primer bulb 6 to 8 times and
the fuel flows in the fuel tank return line.
4.
With the unit laying out on a flat surface,
place knee on drive shaft to stabilize unit
during starting. Do not apply excessive
downward pressure or damage to the
unit may occur.
5. Grasp the right hand grip and throttle
trigger lockout with your left hand and
fully depress the throttle trigger.
6. Pull the recoil starter handle/rope rapidly
until the engine fires up (or a maximum
five pulls).
7.
After engine fires (or 5 pulls), move the
choke lever back to the "Run" position.
8. Fully depress and hold throttle trigger
and throttle trigger lockout, and pull
recoil starter handle/rope rapidly until
engine starts and runs. Release throttle
trigger, and allow unit to idle and warm
up for several minutes.
9. After engine warm-up, slowly depress
throttle trigger to increase engine RPM to
normal operating speed.
