To cut wild growth and scrub, lower the rotating blade

down onto the growth to achieve a chopping effect. Use

the brush cutter like a scythe (sweep it to the right and

left) at ground level. Do not use the cutting attachment

above waist height.

WARNING:

The higher the cutting attachment is off

the ground, the greater the risk of injury from cuttings

being thrown sideways.

WARNING:

When cutting young stands or other

woody materials up to 2cm in diameter, use the left

side of the blade to avoid blade thrust situations. Do not

attempt to cut woody material with a larger diameter,

since the blade may catch or jerk the brush cutter

forward. This may cause damage to the blade or the

brush cutter or loss of control of the brush cutter, resulting

personal injury.

WARNING:

Improper use of a brush cutter blade

may cause it to crack, chip, or shatter.

Thrown parts may seriously injure the operator or

bystander. To reduce the risk of personal injury, it is

essential to take the following precautions:

◾

Avoid contact with hard or solid foreign objects such as

stones, rocks or pieces of metal.

◾

Never cut wood or shrubs with a stem diameter of more

than 2cm.

◾

Inspect the blade at a regular short intervals for signs of

damage. Do not continue working with a damaged blade.

◾

Resharpen the blade regularly (when it has dulled

noticeably) and have it balanced if necessary (performed

by a qualified service technician).

BLADE THRUST

Exercise extreme caution when using the blade with this

unit. Blade thrust is the reaction that 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 re action can be violent enough to cause the

operator to lose control of the unit. Blade thrust can occur

without warning if the blade snags, stalls, or binds. This is

more likely to oc cur 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 unexpected object or woody

stock is encountered, this practice could minimize the

blade thrust reaction.

Before each use check for damaged/worn parts

Check the blade, guard and front-assist handle and

replace any parts that are cracked, warped, bent, or

damaged in any away.

The edge of the blade can dull over time. It is recommended

that you turn over the blade to extend the life of the blade

and periodically sharpen it (performed by a qualified service

technician) or replace it with a new blade when necessary.

Clean the brush cutter after each use

See the MAINTENANCE section for cleaning instructions.

WARNING:

Ensure the blade has come to a

complete stop before cleaning or servicing the brush

cutter. Failure to comply could result in possible serious

personal injury.

TO START/STOP THE TOOL
