IMPORTANT!

MAINTENANCE, REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF EMISSION CONTROL DEVICES AND SYSTEMS MAY BE PER- FORMED BY ANY REPAIR ESTABLISH- MENT OR INDIVIDUAL; HOWEVER, WAR- RANTY REPAIRS MUST BE PERFORMED BY A DEALER OR SERVICE CENTER AUTHORIZED BY SHINDAIWA INC. THE USE OF PARTS THAT ARE NOT EQUIVA- LENT IN PERFORMANCE AND DURA- BILITY TO AUTHORIZED PARTS MAY IMPAIR THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM AND MAY HAVE A BEARING ON THE OUTCOME OF A WARRANTY CLAIM.

NOTE:

Using non-standard replacement parts could invalidate your Shindaiwa warranty.

WARNING!

Before performing any mainte- nance, repair, or cleaning work on the unit, make sure the engine and cutting attachment are completely stopped.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before performing service or maintenance.

0XIÁHU

This unit must never be operated with a faulty or missing spark arrester or muf- fler. 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.

Fasteners

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

WARNING!

Non-standard accessories, cut- ting attachment, or replacement parts may not operate properly with your unit and may cause damage and lead to personal injury.

Air Filter

The C4 engine that powers your Shindaiwa model is a hybrid 4-stroke engine. As a hybrid, the engine is lubricated by oil mixed with the gasoline and air from the carburetor that moves through and around the internal parts of the engine in a similar way that a

2-stroke engine is lubricated. Without the heavy duty 2-stage air filter equipped on all C4 engines, dust and dirt could also move through the engine, decreasing engine life, increasing valve wear and the need for more frequent valve adjustments. To keep your C4 engine strong and reliable, Shindaiwa recommends that you check and service the air filter as instructed in the 10-Hour Mainte- nance section that follows.

Daily maintenance

Prior to each work day, perform the following:

ŶRemove all dirt and debris from the engine, check the cooling fins and air cleaner for clogging, and clean as necessary.

ŶCarefully remove any accumulations of dirt or debris from the muffler and fuel tank. Check cooling air intake area at base of crankcase. Remove all debris. Dirt build-up in these areas can lead to engine overheating, fire, or premature wear.

WARNING!

Always wear gloves when working around the cutter assembly.

ŶLubricate the blades before use and after refueling. Check the cutters for damage or incorrect adjustment.

ŶClean any debris or dirt from the cut- ting attachment.
