TWIN LINE SPOOL

Use this for light trimming.

3 TOOTH BLADE

Use this blade for dense growth.

9 TOOTH BLADE

Use this for extremely dense growth.

OPERATION

TRIMMING GRASS AND WEEDS

1.  Hold the unit so the head is off the ground and is 

tilted about 20 degrees toward the sweep  

direction. 

2.  Sweep from left to right to avoid thrown debris. 

3.  Use a slow, deliberate action to cut heavy growth. 

4.  Never swing the unit hard as you are in danger of 

losing your balance or control of the unit. 

5.  Try to control the cutting motion with your hip 

rather than placing the full workload on your 

arms and hands. 

6.  Take precautions to avoid wire, grass and dead, 

dry, long-stem weeds from wrapping around the 

shaft head.  

 

Such materials can stall the head and cause the 

clutch to slip, resulting in damage to the clutch 

system if repeated frequently.

CUTTING METHOD

1.  Use the front left side for optimal cutting. 

2.  Guide the blade from your right to left with it  

tilted slightly to your left. 

3.  When mowing a wide area, start working from 

your left end to avoid interference of cut grass. 

4.  The blade may be seized by weeds if the engine 

speed is too low, or the blade cuts too deep into 

weeds. Adjust the engine speed and cutting 

depth according to the type of material being cut.

If grass or other object get caught in the blade, 

or if the unit starts to shake or vibrate, turn off 

the engine and check the whole unit. Change the 

blade if it has been damaged.

Turn off the engine and make sure  the blade has 

completely stopped before checking the blade 

and removing any object that has got caught in.

WARNING:

 Always wear eye protection during operation. Never lean over rotating cutting head.

Never swing the unit hard as you are in danger of losing your balance or control of the unit.

OPERATION

CHOOSE THE BLADE

Choose the suitable recommended cutting attach-

ment according to the object to be cut

When replacing blade always be sure to use Parker 

Brand products.

When sharpening, removing, or attaching the blade, 

be sure to wear thick, sturdy gloves and use only 

proper tools and equipment to prevent injury.

ADJUSTING THE LINE LENGTH

Your brush cutter is equipped with a semi-auto 

type nylon trimmer head that allows the operator to 

advance the line without stopping the engine. When 

the line becomes short, lightly tap the head on the 

ground while running the engine at full throttle. 

Each time the head is bumped, the line advances 

about 1 inch (25.4mm). For better effect, tap the head 

on bare ground or hard soil. Avoid bumping in thick, 

tall grass as the engine may stall by overload.
