USING THE MACHINE
WARNING!
Never operate the tool without the guard and bike handle (7)
firmly in place. Failure to comply could result in possible serious personal
injury.
WARNING!
To prevent accidental starting that could cause serious
personal injury, always remove the battery pack from the tool when
assembling parts or transporting the machine.
WARNING!
If any parts are damaged or missing, do not operate
the brush cutter until the parts are replaced. Use of the brush cutter with
damaged or missing parts could result in serious personal injury.
WARNING!
Always wear heavy gloves when installing or removing the
guard and doing any maintenance on the blade trimmer head. Be careful of
the line-cutting blade on the guard.
USING WITH TRIMMER HEAD(I1-I2)
Hold the product firmly with both handles. Make sure the product will contact with
protector during working. (Fig. I1)
Stand upright, do not lean forward and pay attention to posture. Keep both feet apart to
help retain your balance.
Hold the trimming head just above the ground. Avoid pressing it against the ground as
this can ruin the lawn and damage the product.
Move the product with a slow regular arc from left to right before moving it back to the
starting position and trimming the next area (Fig. I1).
Ensure the cutting device remains clean and free from off-cuts that may cause it to jam.
Check regularly. Release the on/off switch (5) and remove the battery pack (3) before
checking.
Trim longer grass in stages; do not cut long grass in one cut. For the best results, cut
longer grass in steps (Fig. I2).
Wait until the product has come to a standstill before placing it down.
NOTE:
For best results, do not cut wet grass because it tends to stick
to the trimming head and guard, prevents proper discharge of grass
trimmings, and could cause you to slip and fall.
NOTE:
Pay special attention when performing the work close to trees
and bushes. The trimming head could damage sensitive bark, and damage
fence posts.
NOTE:
Carefully manoeuvre the product around objects, such as trees
and bushes, ensuring it does not come into contact with them.
ADJUSTING CUTTING LINE LENGTH(FIG. J)
The trimmer head allows the operator to release more cutting line (15) without stopping
the motor. As line becomes frayed or worn, additional line can be released by lightly
tapping the bump knob (17) on the ground while operating the trimmer (Fig. J).
NOTE:
Line release will become more difficult if the cutting line becomes
too short.
WARNING!
Do not remove or alter the line-cutting blade assembly.
Excessive line length will cause the motor to overheat and may result in
serious personal injury.
USING BLADE
WARNING!
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
unit above waist height.
WARNING!
The higher the cutting unit is off the ground, the greater the
risk of injury from cuttings being thrown sideways.
WARNING!
When cutting young trees 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.
