Operation
Using A Blade
(1)After starting the engine, pull the throttle lever gradually. The engine speed increases and the blade will start rotating.
(2)When the throttle lever is released, the engine goes back to idle speed automatically.
(3)Operate the machine at full throttle while cutting. Best fuel efficiency is obtained by releasing the throttle when swinging back after cut.
(4)The blade rotates counterclockwise. For best performance and to minimize being stuck by debris, move the blade from right to left while advancing on your work.
WARNING!
Position the blade so cuts are made between blade’s
8 o’clock and 10 o’clock positions (as viewed from above). DO NOT cut between the 11 o’clock and 5 o’clock positions.
CAUTION!
To prevent possible engine damage, do not allow the machine to run at high speeds without a load.Avoid operating the engine at low speeds. Doing so can lead to rapid clutch wear. In addition,
