Safety (continued)

• IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION •

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS

BEFORE OPERATING

• Read the instructions carefully. Follow all instructions

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

this kit is intended for

• Adjust the J-handle to provide the best grip.

• Be sure the cutting attachment is not in contact with

anything before starting the unit.

• Use only in daylight or good artificial light.

• 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.

• Use the right tool. Only use this tool for the purpose

intended.

• Keep unit clean of vegetation and other materials.

They may become lodged between the cutting

attachment and shield.

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.
