SAFETY AND OPERATION
This brush cutter is equipped with a very sharp blade, and when used incorrectly the blades can be
extremely dangerous.
Improper handling can cause accidents, which may in turn lead to serious injury or death. For this
reason, you should always be careful to adhere to the following instructions when using your brush
cutter.
Never hold the brush cutter in a way in which the cutting head is pointing towards someone else.
Never allow the blades to come into contact with your body.
Always turn off the engine before adjusting the brush cutter, or at any time when coming into close
proximity with the cutting head.
Always wear thick work gloves when adjusting the brush cutter.
SAFE HANDLING OF FUEL
The engine of the brush cutter is designed to run on a two stroke oil/fuel mixture.
This fuel is highly flammable; never store cans of fuel or refill the fuel tank in any
place where there is a source of heat or fire, which might ignite the fuel.
Do not smoke whilst operating the brush cutter or refilling, keep lit cigarettes away
from the brush cutter at all times.
When refilling the fuel tank always stop the engine first and carefully make sure that there are no sparks
or naked flames anywhere nearby before refuelling.
If any fuel spillage occurs during refuelling, use a dry rag to wipe any fuel which has been spilled onto the
brush cutter before starting the engine.
After refuelling, screw the fuel cap back tightly onto the fuel tank and carry the brush cutter to a spot 5
metres or more away from where it was refuelled before starting the engine.
BEFORE OPERATING THE BRUSH CUTTER
Before beginning work, carefully check the work area and remove any obstacles.
Within a perimeter of 15 metres of the work area should be considered a hazardous area into
which no-one should enter while the brush cutter is being used, and when necessary this area
should be marked with a warning rope, warning signs, or other forms of warning.
When work is to be performed simultaneously by two or more operators, care should also be
taken to constantly look around to check the presence and locations of other operators within the
work area to maintain a safe distance between each operator.
Before beginning work, each component of the brush cutter should be checked to make sure that it is in
proper working order, make sure that there are no loose screws or bolts, fuel leaks, ruptures, dents,
broken guards or any other problems which might interfere with safe operation.
Keep all parts of your body away from the cutting head when the engine is running.
BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
Carefully check the work area to make sure that no obstacles exist within a perimeter of 15 metres
around the brush cutter before starting the engine.
To start the engine, place the brush cutter onto the ground in a flat clear area and hold it firmly in place to
ensure that neither the cutting head nor the throttle come into contact with any obstacles when the
engine starts.
After starting the engine, make sure that the cutting head stops moving when the throttle trigger is
released (idle). If the cutting head continues to move when the engine is at idle, adjust the idle screw on
the carburettor to a point where the cutting head stops moving, if this cannot be achieved, take the brush
cutter to your authorised servicing dealer for adjustment.
