Starting and Stopping
Before Starting the Engine
1. Move the Trimmer/Brushcutter at least 3m away from the
fueling location and fuel storage container before starting the
engine.
2. Rest the Trimmer/ Brushcutter on the ground.
3. Make sure the cutting attachment is clear of any broken glass,
nails, wire, rocks or other debris.
4. Keep all bystanders, children and animals away from the
working area.
Starting Engine
Please see HONDA ENGINES Owner’s Manual.
If the engine fails to start after you follow the procedures,
contact an authorized PLP dealer.
To Stop the Engine
1. Release the throttle trigger.
2. Slide the switch to “STOP” position.
Idle Speed Adjustment
This Trimmer/ Brushcutter is equipped with non-adjustable fuel
mixture carburetor. The idle speed is the only adjustment for the
operator.
The cutting attachment may be rotating during idle speed adjustment. Wear the recommended
personal protective equipment and observe all safety instructions. Keep hands and body away from
the cutting attachment.
When the throttle trigger is released, the engine should return to an idle speed just below the clutch
engagement speed. The cutting attachment must not rotate and the engine should not stall (stop
running) at engine idle speed.
To adjust the engine idle speed, rotate the idle speed adjustment screw on the carburetor.
Turn the idle speed screw in (clockwise) to increase the engine idle speed.
Turn the screw out (counterclockwise) to decrease the
engine idle speed.
If idle speed adjustment is necessary, and after adjustment the cutting attachment rotates or
the engine stalls, stop using the Trimmer/ Brushcutter immediately!
Contact your local authorized PLP Dealer for assistance and servicing.
