OPERATION
If grass becomes wrapped around the string head, stop
the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and remove
the grass. Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result in
oil dripping from the silencer.
ADVANCING THE STRING
ADVANCING STRING USING THE EZ LINE™ TAP
ADVANCE SYSTEM
String advance is controlled by tapping string head on
grass while running engine at full throttle.
Run engine at full throttle.
■
Tap string head on ground to advance string.
■
String advances each time the head is tapped.
Several taps may be required until string strikes the
■
cutoff blade.
Resume trimming.
■
NOTE: If the string is worn too short you may not be able
to advance the string by tapping it on the ground. If so,
STOP THE ENGINE, and manually advance the string.
ADVANCING THE STRING MANUALLY
Push the spool retainer down while pulling on string(s) to
manually advance the string.
CUTTING TIPS (Fig. 9)
Keep the trimmer tilted towards the area being cut;
■
this is the best cutting area (45).
Do not cut in dangerous cutting area (43).
■
Use the tip of string to do the cutting; do not force
■
string head into uncut grass.
Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear,
■
even breakage. Stone and brick walls, kerbs and
wood may wear string rapidly.
Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood mouldings,
■
cladding and fence posts can easily be damaged by
the string.
GRASS DEFLECTOR LINE TRIMMING CUTOFF
BLADE (Fig. 10)
This trimmer is equipped with a line trimming cut-off
blade on the grass deflector. For best cutting, advance
string until it is trimmed to length by the cut-off blade.
Advance string whenever you hear the engine running
faster than normal. This will maintain best performance
and keep string long enough to advance properly.
OPERATING THE BRUSHCUTTER (Fig. 11-12)
P NL S DK N FIN GR HU CZ RU RO PL SLO HR TR EST LT
English
Hold the brushcutter with the right hand on the trigger
handle and the left hand on the left handle. Keep a firm grip
with both hands while in operation. Brushcutter should be
held at a comfortable position with the trigger handle about
hip height. Maintain your grip and balance on both feet.
Position yourself so that you will not be drawn off balance
by the kick-back reaction of the cutting blade.
Adjust the shoulder strap to position the brushcutter at
a comfortable operating position and to assure that the
shoulder strap will reduce the risk of operator contact
with the blade.
Exercise extreme caution when using the blade with this
unit. Blade thrust is the reaction which may occur when
the spinning blade contacts anything it cannot cut. This
contact may cause the blade to stop for an instant, and
suddenly "thrust" the unit away from the object that was hit.
This reaction can be violent enough to cause the
operator to lose control of the unit. Blade thrust may
occur 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 from the right to the left.
In the event that an unexpected object or woody stock is
encountered, this could minimise the blade thrust reaction.
TRI-ARC BLADE
The TRI-ARC blade is suited only for pulpy weeds and
vines. When the blade becomes dull, it can be turned
over to extend the life of the blade. Do not sharpen the
TRI-ARC blade.
CUTTING TECHNIQUE - BLADE
WARNING
Extreme care must be taken when using blades
to ensure safe operation. Read the safety
information for safe operation using the blade,
refer to "Specific Safety Rules for Brushcutter
and Blade Use" earlier in this manual.
Always hold brushcutter 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 kick-back reaction of the cutting blade.
Inspect and clear the area of any hidden objects such as
■
glass, stones, concrete, fencing, wire, wood, metal, etc.
Never use blades near footpaths, fencing, posts,
■
buildings or other immovable objects.
Never use a blade after hitting a hard object without
■
first inspecting it for damage. Do not use if any
damage is detected.
