STARTING ENGINE

WARNING

Before starting the engine, check if there is any problem such as loose fitting of cutter blade or fuel leakages.

Place the machine on the ground and hold securely when starting. Do not start the engine while hanging it by one hand because the cutter blade may contact with the ground or other obstacles.

As the engine starts with throttle lever locked in a starting position, the cutter blade starts to turn at the same time. Avoid the cutter blade from contacting the ground and keep surrounding obstacles away.

Confirm if the cutter blade stops to turn when the throttle lever is fully retarded. In case the blade continues to turn, stop the operation and adjust or maintain to the proper operation.

To avoid accidents, do not lock the throttle lever during operation.

Be sure to hold the handle by both hands during operation. Left hand shall always hold a front handle with the thumb downward.

IMPORTANT

Continuous high speed idling will apply extra load to the engine. Release the throttle lever when cutting operation is not continued. Especially during a running-in period, avoid high speed idling as the engine is exposed to a heavy load.
