8. Operation
The oil flow adjusting screw must be
pressed in slightly in order to turn. Failure
to do so could damage the pump and
screw.
3. With a screwdriver, push in on the oil
flow rate adjusting screw and turn in
the desired direction (there are three
incremental settings):
(a) Clockwise-decrease lubrication.
(b) Counter clockwise-increase
lubrication.
(c) Middle
• Always wear work gloves made of
leather or some other sturdy
material when using the polesaw.
• Falling branches may fall onto the
face or into the eyes, resulting in
injuries, scratches, and cuts, and for
this reason you should always be
sure to wear a helmet and face
protector when using your polesaw.
WARNING
IMPORTANT
(HE-EX2 only)
• Always wear eye protection such as
safety goggles. Never lean over the
rotating cutting head. Rocks or other
debris could be thrown into eyes
and face and cause serious personal
injury.
• Keep the blade guard and the mad
guard attached in place at all times
when the unit is operated.
• Before starting a job, check the area
and remove all obstacles and
objects that could be thrown by the
blade.
• Do not adjust the wheel height or try
to remove anything entangled to the
blade with the engine running.
1. Before starting the engine, adjust the
wheel height for desired cutting depth
(See page 15).
2. Before starting a job, plan your
direction of travel so that you can
always hold the edger on you right side
and can walk on a hard surface as
much as possible.
WARNING
3. When starting to edge, run the engine
at full throttle, and slowly have the
blade cut into the edge groove.
(1) Direction of rotation
• Before edging, make sure the area is
soft enough so the blade does not bog
down.
• Do not move the edger into the work so
fast that the engine or blade bogs
down.

■ BREAK-IN OPERATION
The Properly Dressed Operator (OP1)
(1) ALWAYS wear hearing protective
devices.
(2) ALWAYS wear eye protection such as
goggles or safety glasses.
(3) ALWAYS wear a mask to protect
against dust or other airborne
particles.
(4) ALWAYS wear close fitting clothes.
Gloves offer added protection and are
strongly recommended. Do not wear
clothing or jewelry that could get
caught in machinery.
(5) ALWAYS wear leather or heavy-
rubber shoes. NEVER work
barefooted!
(6) BEWARE of thrown debris!
(7) DIRECTION OF ROTATION
• The RedMax Sweeper works best
when its rubber fins can quickly slide or
"skim" over the surface being swept.
• New or replacement sweeper belts
tend to grip or drag on hard surfaces,
and should be thoroughly broken in or
"scuffed" before the broom is actually
put to work.
• Break-in is easily accomplished by
operating the RedMax Sweeper at full
throttle for 3 to 5 minutes in loose
gravel or similar abrasive material.
Once broken in, a RedMax Sweeper
will effortlessly move an amazing
variety of materials, ranging from snow
or standing water to heavier objects
such as wood chips or gravel.
• Experience will help you understand
the operating principles of the RedMax
Sweeper, but safe operation must be
practiced from the start.
