Installation of handle
WARNING
When you use steel/rigid blades on straight shaft trimmers or
brush cutters, always use a barrier bar (6) and shoulder harness
with the loop handle. (Fig. 3)
Attach the handle to the drive shaft tube with the angle towards the
engine.
Adjust the location to the most comfortable position before
operation.
NOTE
If your unit has handle location label on drive shaft tube, follow
the illustration.
Remove the handle bracket (7) from the assembly. (Fig. 4)
Place the handles and attach the handle bracket with four bolts
lightly. Adjust to appropriate position. Then attach it fi rmly with the
bolts.
Attach the protection tube to the drive shaft or handle using cord
clamps (8). (Fig. 5)
Throttle wire / stop cord
Press the upper tab (9) and open the air cleaner cover. (Fig. 6)
Connect stop cords. (Fig. 7)
If the throttle outer end (10) is threaded on your unit, screw it and the
earth terminal (11) (if so equipped) into the cable adjuster stay (12)
all the way, and then tighten this cable end using the adjuster nut
(13) against the cable adjuster stay (12).
Connect throttle wire end (14) to carburetor (15) and install swivel
cap (16) (if so equipped) where is included in tool bag, onto swivel
(15) (Fig. 8).
Some models may come with the parts installed.
Installation of blade guard (Fig. 9, 10, 10-1, 11)
NOTE
The guard bracket may come already mounted to the gear case
on some models.
Install the blade guard on drive shaft tube against angle
transmission. Tighten the guard bracket fi rmly so that the blade
guard does not swing or move down during operation.
Install the blade guard to the guard bracket, which also secures the
guard to the gear case using the two guard mounting screws.
CAUTION
Some blade guards are equipped with sharp line limiters. Be
careful with handling it.
When using a trimmer head with two piece type blade guard, attach
the guard extension to the blade guard. (Fig. 12)
NOTE
○ When attaching the guard extension to the blade guard, the
sharp line limiter must be removed from the blade guard, (if so
installed).
○ If your unit has guard location label on drive shaft tube, follow
the indication.
○ To remove the guard extension, refer to the drawings. Wear
gloves as the extension has a sharp line limiter, then push the
four square tabs on the guard one by one in order. (Fig. 13)

2. Precautions
○ The case must be securely attached to the cover.
○ Check the cover, case and other components for cracks or
other damage.
○ Check the case and button for wear.
If the wear limit mark (17) on the case is no longer visible or
there is a hole in the bottom (18) of the button, change the new
parts immediately. (Fig. 14)
○ The cutting head must be securely mounted to the unit's gear
case.
○ For outstanding performance and reliability, always use Tanaka
nylon cutting line. Never use wire or other materials that could
become a dangerous projectile.
○ If the cutting head does not feed cutting line properly, check
that the nylon line and all components are properly installed.
Contact your Hitachi dealer if you need assistance.
3. Installation (Fig. 15)
○ Install cutting head on gear case of grass trimmers/brush
cutters. The mounting nut is left-hand-threaded. Turn clockwise
to loosen/counterclockwise to tighten.
For curved shaft models, the mounting nut is right-hand-threaded.
Turn counterclockwise to loosen/clockwise to tighten.
NOTE
○ Since the cutter holder cap is not used here, keep it for when a
metal blade is used, if so equipped.
○ Insert Allen wrench (19) into the hole of the gear case in order to
lock the cutter holder.
4. Adjusting line length
○ Set the engine speed as low as possible and tap the head on
the ground. The nylon line will be drawn out about 3 cm with
each tap. (Fig. 16)
Also, you can extend the nylon line by hand but the engine must
be completely stopped. (Fig. 17)
○ Adjust the nylon line to the proper length of 11–14 cm before
each operation.
Installation of cutting blade (Fig. 18)
(If so equipped)
When installing a cutting blade, make sure that there are no cracks
or any damage in it and that the cutting edges are facing the correct
direction.
NOTE
○ When installing cutter holder cap (20), be sure to set concave
side upward.
○ Insert the alien wrench (19) into the hole of the angle
transmission in order to lock the cutter holder (21). Please note
that the cutter fi xing bolt or nut (22) has left-handed threads,
(clockwise to loosen/ counter-clockwise to tighten). Tighten the
fi xing bolt or nut with the box wrench.
○ If your unit is of a nut securing type and equipped with a cotter
pin, the blade must be retained with a new pin (23) each time
installed. (Fig. 19)
CAUTION
○ Before operation, make sure the blade has been properly
installed.
○ If your unit is equipped with protection cover under a cutting
blade, check it for wear or cracks before operation. If any damage
or wear is found, replace it, as it is an article of consumption.
