when assembling and using this kit with your unit.
•Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all
objects such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or
string which can be thrown or become entangled in
the cutting attachment. Clear the area of children,
bystanders, and pets. At a minimum, keep all
children, bystanders and pets outside a 50 ft. (15 m.)
radius; there still may be a risk to bystanders from
thrown objects. Bystanders should be encouraged to
wear eye protection. If you are approached, stop the
engine and cutting attachment immediately.
WHILE OPERATING
•Wear safety glasses or goggles that are marked as
meeting ANSI Z87.1-1989 standards, and
ear/hearing protection when operating this unit. Wear
a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty. Long
sleeve shirts are recommended.
•Wear heavy, long pants, boots, gloves and a long
sleeve shirt. Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry,
short pants, sandals or go barefoot. Secure hair
above shoulder level.
The cutting attachment shield must always be in
place while operating the unit as a trimmer. Do not
operate unit without both trimming lines extended,
and the proper line installed. Do not extend the trim-
ming line beyond the length of the shield.
Read and follow the operator’s manual for the unit

Do not overreach. Always keep proper footing and
balance.
Always hold the unit with both hands when
operating. Keep a firm grip on both the front and rear
handle or grips.
Keep hands, face, and feet at a distance from all
moving parts. Do not touch or try to stop the cutting
attachment when it is rotating.
Do not operate the engine faster than the speed
needed to cut, trim or edge. Do not run the engine at
high speed when not cutting.
Always stop the engine when cutting is delayed or
when walking from one cutting location to another.
If you strike or become entangled with a foreign
object, stop the engine immediately and check for
damage. Do not operate before repairing damage.
Do not operate the unit with loose or damaged parts.
Stop and switch the engine to off for maintenance,
repair, or for changing the cutting attachment or
other attachments.

WHILE OPERATING WITH CUTTING BLADE
•Read and understand all safety warnings before
operating this unit.
Always use the shoulder harness when using the
brush blade accessory.
Keep the handle between the operator and cutting
attachment or blade at all times.
NEVER cut with the cutting blade located over 30
inches (76 cm) or more above the ground level.
Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade
contacts an object that it does not immediately cut.
Blade thrust can be violent enough to cause the unit
and/or operator to be propelled in any direction, and
possibly lose control of the unit. Blade thrust can
occur without warning if the blade snags, stalls or
binds. This is more likely to occur in areas where it is
difficult to see the material being cut.
For operation with the blade, do not cut anything
thicker than 1/2 inch or a violent kickback could
occur.
Do not attempt to touch or stop the blade when it is
rotating.
•A coasting blade can cause injury while it continues
to spin after the engine is stopped or the throttle
trigger is released. Maintain proper control until the
blade has completely stopped rotating.
Do not run the unit at high speed when not cutting.
If you strike or become entangled with a foreign
object, stop the engine immediately and check for
damage. Have any damage repaired before attempt-
ing further operations. Do not operate unit with a
bent, damaged or dull blade. Discard blades that are
bent, warped, or damaged.
Do not sharpen the cutting blade. Sharpening the
blade can cause the blade tip to break off while in
use. This can result in severe personal injury. Replace
the blade.
5
(continued)
Do not use the cutting blade for edging or as an
edger, severe personal injury to yourself or others
can occur. Use the cutting blade only for the purpose
as described in this manual.
Stop the engine IMMEDIATELY if you feel excessive
vibration. Vibration is a sign of trouble. Inspect thor-
oughly for loose nuts, bolts or damage before contin-
uing. Repair or replace affected parts as necessary.
AFTER USE
Clean cutting blades with a household cleaner to
remove any gum buildup. Oil the blade with machine
oil to prevent rust.
Lock up and store the cutting blade in an appropriate
area to protect the blade from unauthorized use or
damage.

OPERATION
HOLDING THE UNIT
Always wear eye, hearing, foot and body protec-
tion to reduce the risk of injury when operating
this unit.
Before operating the unit, stand in the operating posi-
tion (Fig. 3-1). Check for the following:
The operator is wearing eye protection and proper
clothing.
The right arm is slightly bent, and the hand is hold-
ing the shaft grip.
The left arm is straight, and the hand is holding the
J-handle.
The unit is at waist level.
The cutting attachment is parallel to the ground and
easily contacts the vegetation to be cut without the
operator having to bend over.
USING THE CUTTING BLADE
Always wear eye, hearing, foot, body protection
and the harness to reduce the risk of injury when
operating this unit.
Do not use the cutting blade for edging or as an
edger, severe personal injury to yourself or oth-
ers can occur.
Before operating the unit with the cutting blade stand
in the operating position (Figs. 5-4). Refer to Holding
the Unit.
Cutting Blade Operating Tips:
To establish a rhythmic cutting procedure:
Plant feet firmly, comfortably apart.
Bring the engine to full throttle before entering the
material to be cut. The blade has maximum cutting
power at full throttle and is less likely to bind, stall, or
cause blade thrust, which can result in serious per-
sonal injury to the operator or others.
Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade
contacts an object that it does not immediately cut.
Blade thrust can be violent enough to cause the unit
and/or operator to be propelled in any direction, and
possibly lose control of the unit. Blade thrust can
occur without warning if the blade snags, stalls or
binds. This is more likely to occur in areas where it
is difficult to see the material being cut.
Cut while swinging the upper part of your body from
right to left.
Always release the throttle trigger and allow the
engine to return to idle speed when not cutting.
When done always unsnap unit from harness before
taking harness off.
Fig. 3-1
Fig. 3-2
13
Operation (continued)
The blade continues to spin after the engine is
turned off. The coasting blade can seriously cut
you if accidentally touched.
Swing the unit in the same direction as the blade
spins, which increases the cutting action.
•Move forward to the next area to be cut after the
return swing and plant feet again.
The cutting blade is designed with a second cutting
edge, which can be used by removing the blade,
turning it upside down, and reinstalling it.
Do not sharpen the cutting blade. Sharpening the
blade can cause the blade tip to break off while
in use. This can result in severe personal injury to
yourself or others. Replace the blade.
To reduce the chance of material wrapping around the
blade, follow these steps:
Cut at full throttle.
Swing the unit into material to be cut from your right to
your left (Fig. 3-2).
•Avoid the material just cut as you make the return swing.
Do not clear away cut material with the engine run-
ning or blade turning. To avoid serious personal
injury, turn off engine. Allow the blade to stop before
removing materials wrapped around the blade shaft.
