5. For safe operation
IMPORTANT
Remove any obstacle before beginning work.
3. Inspect the entire unit for loose fasteners and fuel
leakage. Make sure that the cutting attachment is
properly installed and securely fastened.
4. Be sure the debris guard is firmly attached in place.
5. Always use the shoulder strap. Adjust the strap for
comfort before starting the engine. The strap should
be adjusted so the left hand can comfortably hold
the handlebar grip approximately waist high.
■ STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Keep bystanders and animals at least 50feet (15m)
away from the operating point. If you are
approached, immediately stop the engine.
2. The product is equipped with a centrifugal clutch
mechanism, so the cutting attachment could rotate
as soon as the engine is started. When starting the
engine, place the product onto the ground in a flat
clear area and hold it firmly in place so as to ensure
that neither the cutting part nor the throttle come into
contact with any obstacle when the engine starts.
WARNING
Make sure the throttle is at idle position.
Never place the throttle into the high speed
position or half throttle position (throttle lock
position) when starting the engine.
3. After starting the engine, check to make sure that
the cutting attachment stops rotating when the
throttle is moved fully back to its original position
(idle position). If it continues to rotate even after the
throttle has been moved fully back, turn off the
engine and take the unit to your authorized Red Max
servicing dealer for repair.
■ USING THE PRODUCT
