ing work on the unit, make sure the engine and cutting attachment are completely stopped. Disconnect the spark plug wire before performing service or maintnenance work.

Muffler

This unit must never be operated with a faulty or missing spark arrester or muffler. Make sure the muffler is well secured and in good condition. A worn or damaged muffler is a fire hazard and may also cause hearing loss.

Spark Plug

Keep the spark plug and wire connections tight and clean.

Make sure nuts, bolts, and screws (except carburetor adjusting screws)

are tight.

Blades

Keep blades sharp and check blade condition frequently. If a blade’s per- formance changes suddenly, stop the engine and check the blade for cracks or other damage. Replace a damaged blade

IMMEDIATELY!

nNever repair a damaged blade by welding, staightening, or by modify ing its shape. An altered blade may break during operation, resulting in serious personal injury.

nDO NOT use 2-tooth or NON- Shindaiwa approved 4-tooth cutting blades on Shindaiwa trim- mers or brushcutters.

nBlades are not interchangeable between Shindaiwa edgers and trimmer/brushcutter models.

Daily Maintenance

Prior to each work day, perform the following:

nRemove dirt or debris from the engine, check the cooling fins and air cleaner for clogging and clean them as necessary.

nCarefully remove any accumulation of dirt or debris from the muffler or the fuel tank. Dirt build-up in these areas could cause the engine over- heating, induce premature wear, or create a fire hazard.

nCheck the entire unit for leaking fuel or grease.
