OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: ALWAYS WEAR SHOU-
LDER HARNESS when operating unit with a
blade. Attach harness to trimmer after
starting unit and engine is running at IDLE.
Turn ENGINE OFF before disconnecting
shoulder harness.
SHOULDER HARNESS
NOTE: When you install the cutting
attachment, please follow the below
requirements.
1. Put the harness on so the shoulder strap
is over your LEFT shoulder.
2. Attach the harness clip (C) to the ring (D)
mounted on the shaft (Fig. 8A and 8B).
3. Adjust length of shoulder strap so trimmer
head is parallel to the ground as it hangs
from the strap. A few practice swings
without starting engine should be made to
determine correct balance.
NOTE: Detach the shoulder harness from
the unit before starting engine.
WARNING: Never use straight petrol
in your unit. This will cause permanent
engine damage and void the manufacturer’s
warranty for that product. Never use a fuel
mixture that has been stored for over 90
days.
WARNING: Lubricant must be a
premium grade oil for 2-stroke air cooled
engines mixed at a 40:1 ratio. Do not use
any 2-cycle oil product with a recommended
mixing ratio of 100:1. If insufficient lubrication
is the cause of engine damage, it voids the
manufacturer’s engine warranty.
WARNING: Lack of lubrication voids
engine warranty. Gasoline and oil must be
mixed at 40:1.
WARNING: Remove fuel cap slowly
when refueling.
WARNING: Alternative fuels (not
petrol) such as E-15 (15% alcohol), E-20 (20%
alcohol), E-85 (85% alcohol) are NOT
classified as petrol and are NOT approved for
use in 2-stroke petrol engines. Use of
alternative fuels will cause problems such as:
improper clutch engagements, overheating,
vapor lock, power loss, lubrication deficiency,
deterioration of fuel lines, gaskets and internal
carburetor components, etc. Alternative fuels
cause high moisture absorption into the
fuel/oil mixture leading to oil and fuel
separation.
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded
petrol. Before operation, petrol must be mixed
with a good quality 2-cycle air-cooled engine
oil designed to be mixed at a ratio of 40:1. A
40:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 5 liters of
unleaded petrol with 0,125 liter of oil. DO NOT
USE automotive oil or marine oil. These oils
will cause engine damage. When mixing fuel,
follow instructions printed on oil container.
Once oil is added to petrol, shake container
momentarily to assure that the fuel is
thoroughly mixed. Always read and follow the
safety rules relating to fuel before fueling your
unit.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
Use good quality unleaded petrol. The lowest
recommended octane grade is 90 (RON).
