Place the unit on a flat, firm place.
Keep the cutting head clear of everything around it.
6. While holding the unit firmly, pull out the starter rope
quickly until engine fires.
WARNING
The product is equipped with a centrifugal clutch
mechanism, so the cutting attachment begins to ro-
tate as soon as the engine is started by putting the
throttle trigger into the start position. When starting
the engine, place the product onto the ground in a
flat clear area and hold it firmly in place so as to en-
sure that neither the cutting attachment nor the
throttle trigger come into contact with any obstacle
when the engine starts.
IMPORTANT
•
Avoid pulling the rope to its end or returning it by re-
leasing the knob. Such actions can cause starter fail-
ures.
