• Press and hold the switch into the OFF position (E) until
the motor stops.

CAUTION
• Keep in mind that you as a gas
brushcutter operator are responsible of your safety as well
as those who are close to the work area. Follow all safety
standards (pages 4 and 5) before operating the gas
brushcutter.
• Keep a balanced stance with both feet firmly supported
on the ground.
• Firmly hold the gas brushcutter in front of you. One
hand on the handle and the other hand on the auxiliary
handle. Keep the gas brushcutter aligned to your body
and point the cutter head 30° downwards away from your
feet.
DANGER
• Do not start or operate the gas
brushcutter in a different stance.
• Start the gas brushcutter and cut from left to right while
rotating your waist. Keep the gas brushcutter position.
• As you cut, the cutting thread will wear out and will fall
apart. To release more thread from the spool, press the gas
brushcutter a little bit downwards. This position will make
the ground to press the retention cap against the spool to
release more thread. The remaining thread is cut with the
guard blade. At this moment stop pushing the gas
brushcutter against the ground to avoid wasting thread.
• To cut brush or high grass make it gradually. Do not try
to cut in one pass from the base because residues can get
stuck in the cutter head or make you lose control over the
gas brushcutter.
