• When shouldering the main body of the
brushcutter, be careful that the throttle wire does

This product employs a plot type carburetor. If the
engine is tilted too much, the fuel in the breather or
carburetor of the fuel tank might leak out. Do not tilt the
engine upward or downward during cutting, or when
storing or transporting the brushcutter.
Be careful not to hit the blade against any object during
cutting. Hitting the blade against stones, etc. might damage
the blade and driving unit, or bend the main pipe.
■ SHOULDERING THE MAIN BODY OF THE UNIT
1. Start the engine and allow it to warm up. Then, return
the throttle lever to the idling position, and make sure
that the blade does not rotate.
2. Make sure that there is no person or object near the
machine. Then, holding the front part (on the blade
side) of the handle of the main pipe with your left
hand, hang the right shoulder belt on your right
shoulder.
3. Shift the main pipe from the left hand to the right hand,
and hang the left shoulder belt on your left shoulder.
4. Adjust the length of the left and right shoulder belts so
that the shoulder frame is a little above the waist, and
the weight of the main body of the machine is applied
evenly on both shoulders.
5. Use of the hanging belt (an accessories) allows you to
work comfortably without your arms becoming tired.
Hook the hanging belt in the left or right shoulder belt
and the hanger plate in which the loop handle is
mounted, and adjust the length of the ganging belt to
an easy-to-use length.
