concrete, fencing, wire, wood, metal, etc.
• Never use blades near footpaths, fencing, posts, buildings or other
immovable objects.
• Never use a blade after hitting a hard object without rst inspecting
it for damage. Do not use if any damage is detected.
• The unit is used as a scythe, cutting from the right to the left in a
broad sweeping action from side to side.
• Always wear goggles, earmus and a dust mask when using the
Brushcutter.
• Only use blades with a cutting diameter of 255mm and a bore size
of 25.4 mm.
• Only use the Brushcutter with the correctly supplied and tted
Brushcutter guard.
• Keep bystanders a minimum of 15 metres from the operation of the
Brushcutter.
• Prior to operation, ensure the assembled Brushcutter is checked for
loose components and the operating controls of the Brushcutter.
Do not use the Brushcutter if the controls are not in perfect working
order. Ensure all nuts, bolts and clamps are all tight.
• Check the blade is correctly seated and the blade nut is tight.
• DO NOT substitute the blade with any other types of blade other than
that is detailed in this manual. DO NOT t a saw blade to this product.
• This brushcutter is tted with a centrifugal clutch. At idle, the blade
must not be rotating. Make a practice to always check the clutch is
correctly operating and at idle the blade does not rotate, and rotation
of the blade only occurs as the speed of the motor is increase from
manually operating the speed trigger.
Do NOT use the brushcutter if the blade at idle speed is rotating and
take it to an authorised service centre.
• Exercise extreme caution when using the 3T brushcutter blade with
this unit. Blade thrust is the reaction which may occur when the
spinning 3T brushcutter blade contacts anything it cannot cut.
This contact may cause the 3T brushcutter blade to stop for an instant,
and suddenly “thrust” the unit away from the object that was hit.
This reaction can be violent enough to cause the operator to lose
control of the unit. Blade thrust may occur without warning if the
blade snags, stalls or binds. This is more then likely to occur in areas
where it is dicult to see the material being cut.
