Using the Brushcutter
Choosing the cutting device
Choose the most suitable cutting device for the job to be done, according to these general
indications:
• The cutting line head can eliminate tall grass and non-woody vegetation
• The 3-point blade is suitable for cutting brushwood and small shrubs up to 2 cm in diameter.
Nylon Head
• Cut the grass in 1.5 metre widths, keeping the machine well balanced.
• Avoid engaging stones, piles of earth, small pieces of wood or anything that could be hidden or
dicult to see in the grass. If a large object is accidentally struck, if the cutting head gets blocked,
overloaded or stringy material gets wrapped in the cutting head, reduce the engine speed so the
engine idles. Make sure that the cutting head has stopped rotating, switch o the engine and
remove the material.
• Put the brushcutter on the ground and check that the cutting head has not been damaged. If
necessary, change the cutting head. If the head is only wrapped by vegetation, remove by hand
and clean the cutting head.
• Always wear safety gloves for this operation and ensure the engine is switched o and the head
is stationary.
• When the 2 nylon cords become too short, accelerate the engine and bump the nylon head on
the ground. Automatically the 2 nylon cords will feed out and be cut to the correct length. Repeat
the operation if necessary.
3-Point Blade
• Start cutting above the undergrowth and then move down with the blade so as to cut the brush
into small pieces.
• Avoid hitting stones, piles of earth, small pieces of wood or anything that could be hidden or
dicult to see in the grass.
