Operation
growth. The rate of cutting motion will
depend on the material being cut. Heavy
growth will require slower action than will
light growth.
5. Never swing the unit so hard as you are in
danger of losing your balance or control of
the unit.
6. Try to control the cutting motion with the
hip rather than placing the full workload on
the arm and hands.
7. Take precautions to avoid wire, grass and
dead, dry, long-stem weeds from wrapping
around the head shaft. Such materials can
stall the head and cause the clutch to slip,
resulting in damage to the clutch system if
repeated frequently.
ADJUSTING THE LINE LENGTH
• Your brushcutters is equipped with a semi-
auto type nylon line 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
advance about 1 inch(25.4 mm). For better
effect, tap the head on bear ground or hard
soil. Avoid bumping in thick, tall grass as
the engine may stall by overload.
