5.4 Shoulder strap adjustment
Before commencing work, adjust the shoulder
strap and handle according to the operator’s body
size.
Balance the brushcutter and attached cutting
blade so that the cutting tool hovers just above the
ground when your hands are off the attached
brushcutter.
A) Models with a "loop" handle (109L and 111L)
Wear the single shoulder strap over the opposite
shoulder to the side on which you are carrying the
brushcutter. Once the length of the strap has been
correctly adjusted the strap hook should be over
your hip. Hook the strap hook into the strap
attachment on the brushcutter.
If the cutting tool hovers more than 30 cm above
the ground, secure the shoulder strap retainer
nearer to the engine.
If the cutter lies on the ground, secure the
shoulder strap retainer nearer the handle.
B) Models with a "bike" handle (109B and 111B)
– double shoulder strap
(schematic diagram)
If the cutting tool hovers more than 30 cm above
the ground, secure the strap hook one hole nearer
to the engine.
If the tool lies on the ground, select one hole
further from the engine.
6. Fuelling
6.1 Fuel information
A high performance two-stroke engine
operated with a petrol:oil mixture (petrol + oil
= fuel mixture) or with a special fuel mixture for
two-stroke engines available from specialists
powers this machine.
We recommend the proprietary “Aspen 2-takt”
special fuel mixture. Please observe the special
fuel manufacturer’s instructions.
Information on individual mixing of the fuel mixture
Normal or super unleaded petrol can be used for
individual mixing purposes (minimum octane
number 92 RON).
When using a particularly high quality proprietary
2-stroke engine oil such as the “SOLO Profi 2T-
Motoröl” which we supply, we recommend an
oil:petrol mixing ratio of 1:50 (2%).
When using other brands of 2-stroke oil we
recommend a mixing ratio of 1:25 (4%).
Only use proprietary 2-stroke engine oil!
Never store fuel mixture longer than 3 - 4 weeks.

Unsuitable petrol or deviations in the mixing ratio
may lead to serious engine damage!
Avoid direct skin contact with petrol and
avoid inhaling petrol fumes - health hazard!
6.2 Fuelling
While fuelling always follow all safety instructions
and take all safety precautions.
Handle fuel only with the engine turned off.
Carefully clean the area around the filler inlet.
Place the machine with the fuel inlet pointing
upwards. Unscrew the tank lid and fill the fuel
mixture up to the lower edge of the filler neck. Use
a funnel with filter to prevent tank contamination.
After filling the tank replace the tank lid and tighten
firmly.
