1. Hold the rear handle of shaft tube in left hand and hang the
right knapsack band on the right shoulder.
2. Hold the rear handle of shaft tube in right hand and hang the
left knapsack band on the left shoulder.
3. For even load on both sides of shoulder, joggle the unit on
the shoulder a couple of times.
4. It is preferable to connect the strap to the hangers located on
the loop handle the left or right knapsack band and adjust the
length of the strap to maintain a comfortable operation.
Increase engine speed as necessary, heavy weeds will require
more power than cutting grass. - Small trees or heavy brush can
be cut using the circular saw. - The 3 cutter blade should be used
only for cutting grass, brush or for heavy weed control.
Hold the front handle (loop handle) and rear handle both hands.
When cutting weeds or grass, swing the blade right and left in
an arc as you move forward.
The blade rotates anticlockwise, so it is necessary to cut the
object from the right to the left.
The manner of walking is as follows: - Place the right foot in
front of the left foot without fail. - Step the right foot forward
firstly and secure your footing. - And then follow the left foot to
the behind of the right foot.
Avoid striking any obstruction such as rocks, stones or tree
stumps which can damage the blade. - In the event that the
blade strikes an obstruction or is otherwise prevented from ro-
tating in normal operation, the clutch will slip to prevent possi-
ble engine damage. - In this case, stop the engine, free the
blade and then start the operation again.
Do not cut into the ground.
Do not run the unit unloaded at full throttle to avoid damage to
the engine.
Should the unit be operated for an extended period of time in
high temperatures, the angle transmission may become very
hot. If it is too hot to touch, allow the unit to cool down, check
the lubricant as the instruction and continue to operate if in or-
der.
