CUTTING WORK (LINE HEAD USAGE)

WARNING

1.Always wear eye protection such as safety goggles. Never lean over the rotating cutting head. Rocks or other debris could be thrown into eyes and face and cause serious personal injury.

2.Keep the cutting attachment guard in place at all times when the unit is operated.

TRIMMING GRASS AND WEEDS

Always remember that the TIP of the line does cutting. You will achieve better results by not crowding the line into the cutting area. Allow the unit to trim at its own pace.

OP7

1.

Hold the unit so the head is off the

 

ground and is tilted about 20 degrees

 

 

 

 

toward the sweep direction. (OP7)

 

2.

You can avoid thrown debris by

 

 

sweeping from your left to the right.

 

3.

Use a slow, deliberate action to cut

 

 

heavy growth. The rate of cutting

 

 

motion will depend on the material

 

 

being cut. Heavy growth will require

 

 

slower action than will light growth.

 

 

 

4.

Never swing the unit so hard as you

 

 

are in danger of losing your balance or

 

 

control of the unit.

 

5.

Try to control the cutting motion with

 

 

the hip rather than placing the full

 

 

workload on the arm and hands.

 

6.

Take precautions to avoid wire, grass

 

 

and dead, dry, long-stem weeds from

 

 

wrapping around the head shaft. Such

 

 

materials can stall the head and cause

the clutch to slip, resulting in damage to the clutch system if repeated frequently.

ADJUSTING THE LINE LENGTH

Your brushcutters is equipped with a semi- auto type nylon line head that allows the operator to advance the line without stopping the engine. When the line becomes short, lightly tap the head on the ground while running the engine at full throttle.

Each time the head is bumped, the line advance about 1 inch(25.4 mm). For better effect, tap the head on bear ground or hard soil. Avoid bumping in thick, tall grass as the engine may stall by overload.
