2. Stop switch
4. Anti-vibration
system
The stop switch should be
used to stop the engine.
Your machine is equipped
with an anti-vibration system
that has been designed to
give as vibration-free and
comfortable usage as
possible.
The use of incorrectly
wound cord or blunt,
incorrect cutting equipment
(incorrect type or incorrectly
sharpened, see section “Filing
the blade”) increases the level
of vibration.
The machine’s vibration
damping system reduces the
transfer of vibrations
between the engine unit/
cutting equipment and the
machine’s handle unit.
WARNING!
Over exposure to vibrations can result in
!
blood-vessel or nerve injury to persons
suffering with blood circulation problems.
Seek medical attention if you experience
physical symptoms that can be related to
over exposure to vibrations. Examples of
such symptoms are “numbness“, lack of
feeling, “tickling“, “pricking“, “pain“, lack
of or a reduction in normal strength,
changes in the colour of the skin or its
surfaces.These symptoms normally
appear in the fingers, hands or wrists.
3. Cutting
attachment guard
This guard is intended to
prevent objects from being
thrown towards the operator
and to protect the operator
from unintentionel contact
with the cutting attachment.
5. Quick-release
There is an easily accessible,
quick-release catch fitted to
the chest as a safety
precaution in the event of a
fire in the engine or for any
other situation that requires
you to free yourself from the
machine and harness. See the
section “Adjusting the harness
and clearing saw“.
WARNING!
Do not attach any blade to the unit
without proper installation of all required
parts. Failure to use the proper parts can
cause the blade to fly off and seriously
injure the operator and/or bystanders.
!
Under no circumstances may the cutting
equipment be used without an approved
guard fitted. See the chapter “Technical
data”. If the wrong guard or a defective
guard is fitted this can cause serious
personal injury.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• See the cutting
equipment’s packaging for
correct filing instructions.
The section describes how through correct mainte-
nance and through using the right type of cutting
equipment you can reduce the machine‘s tendency to
kickback, obtain maximum clearing capacity and
increase the service life of the cutting equipment.
• The blades are sharpened
using a single cut flat file.
•
Only use the cutting and guard equipment we
recommend! See chapter “Technical data“.
• Sharpen all edges equally
to maintain the balance of
the blade.
•
Refer to the instructions for the cutting
equipment for the correct winding of cord
and for the selection of the right cord diameter.
•
•
Keep the blade’s teeht well and correctly
sharpened! Follow our recommendations. Also
refer to the instructions on the blade packaging.
Trimmer head
Maintain the correct setting. Follow our instruc-
tions and use the recommended filing gauge.

recommended. These
have been tested by the
manufacturer to suit a
particular engine size.

!
important when a fully
automatic trimmer head
is used. Only use the
cutting equipment we
recommend! See chapter
“Technical data“.
Sharpening the
clearing blade
• See the cutting
equipment’s packaging for
correct filing instructions.
• Generally smaller machines require a small trimmer head
and vice versa. This is because when clearing using a cord
the engine must throw out the cord radially from the
trimmer head and also meet resistance from the grass being
cleared.
• A correctly sharpened
blade is a prerequisite for
working efficiently and to
avoid unnecessary wear to
the blade and clearing saw.
• Make sure that the blade is
well supported when you
use the file. Use a 5,5 mm
round file with a file
holder.
• The length of the cord is also important. A longer cord
requires greater engine power than a shorter cord of the
same diameter.
• Make sure the knife positioned on the trimmer guard is
intact. This is used to cut the cord to the correct length.
• The sharpening angle is
15°. Every other tooth is
sharpened to the right and
the intermediate tooth to
the left. When the blade
has been heavily pitted by
stones the upper side of
the teeth can, in
exceptional cases, need to
be dressed using a flat file.
In such cases this takes
place before sharpening
with the round file.
• To increase the life of the cord it can be soaked in water for
a few days. This will make the line tougher and it will keep
longer.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Always ensure the trimmer cord is wound tightly
and evenly around the drum, otherwise harmful
vibrations will occur.
WARNING!
Always stop the engine before starting
work on any part of the cutting equipment.
!
Dressing the top side must
be carried out equally for
all teeth.
This continues to rotate even after the
throttle has been released. Ensure that the
cutting equipment has stopped completely
and remove the cable from the spark plug
before you start to work on it.
• Adjust the setting. This
should be 1 mm.

General working instructions
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
•
•
This section covers basic safety precautions for
working with brushcutters and trimmers.
If you encounter a situation where you are
uncertain how to proceed you should ask an
expert. Contact your dealer or your service
workshop.
•
•
Avoid all usage which you consider to be beyond
your capability.
You must understand the difference between
clearing, brush cutting and grass trimming before
using the machine.
Basic safety precautions
1.Observe your surroundings:
• To ensure that people, animals or other things cannot affect
your control of the machine.
• To ensure that the above mentioned do not come into
contact with the cutting equipment or objects that can be
thrown by the cutting equipment.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Adjusting the harness and clearing saw
Basic clearing techniques
WARNING!
• Always drop to idling speed after each working operation.
Longer periods running at full throttle without loading the
engine (that is without resistance, which the engine feels
from the cutting equipment when trimming) can lead to
serious engine damage.
When working with the clearing saw it
should always be hooked in the harness. If
this is not done, you cannot control the
clearing saw safely and this can result in
injury to yourself or someone else. Never
use a harness with a defective quick
release catch.
!
Designations
Quick release
On the front is an easily
accessible, quick release
catch. Use this if the engine
should catch fire or in any
other emergency situation
when you quickly need to
take off the harness and
machine.
• Use a saw blade for
cutting woody growth
with thin stems.
• Use a grass knife or grass
blade for clearing grass.
• Use a trimmer head or
plastic blades for lighter
clearing work, for
example along verges or
around trees.
Even load on the
shoulders
A well-adjusted harness and
clearing saw significantly
facilitates working. Adjust
the harness for the best
working position. Tension
the side straps so that the
weight is evenly distributed
across the shoulders.
WARNING!
Sometimes branches, grass or wood can
get caught between the guard and cutting
equipment. Always stop the engine when
cleaning.
!
Correct height
Adjust the support strap so
that the cutting attachment
is parallel to the ground.
Correct balance
The cutting attachment
should rest lightly on the
ground. If you use a saw
blade it should balance
about 10 cm above the
ground to prevent contact
with stones and the like.
Adjust the position of the
support strap attachment
ring to balance the clearing
saw correctly.

!
o’clock).
Working methods
• Before you start clearing,
check the clearing area, its
condition, slopes, if there
are stones, pits, etc.
• If the blade is angled to the left when clearing the grass will
collect in a line, which makes collection easier, e.g. when
raking.
• Try to work rhythmically. Stand firmly with your feet apart.
Move forward after the return stroke and stand firmly again.
• On sloping ground the
pathway should run
parallel to the slope. It is
far easier to work along a
slope then up and down a
slope.
• Let the support cup rest lightly against the ground. It is used
to protect the blade from hitting the ground.
• Reduce the risk of material wrapping around the blade by
following these instructions:
a) Always work at full throttle.
b) Avoid the previously cut material during the return
stroke.
• The pathway should be
planned so that you avoid
going over ditches or other
obstacles.
• Stop the engine and remove the brushcutter from the
harness before you start to gather the cut material.
WARNING!
Neither the user of the tool or anyone else
may attempt to remove the cut material
!
while the engine is running or with the
blade rotating as this can result in serious
injury.
Brush cutting
using the saw
blade
Stop the engine and blade before you
remove material that has wound around the
blade as otherwise there is a risk of injury.
The bevel gear unit can get hot during use
and may remain so for a while afterwards.
There is a risk of slight burns if you touch
it.
• Cut through thin stems
and brush. Swing the
blade sideways in a sawing
motion.
• Avoid cutting in the
cutting region between 12
and 3 o‘clock on the
blade.
WARNING!
Beware of thrown objects. Always wear eye
protection. Never lean over the guard.
Stones, rubbish etc. can be thrown up into
the eyes resulting in blindness or other
serious injury.

Trimming
Grass clearing
using the trimmer
head and plastic
blades.
• The trimmer is ideal to
cut grass that is difficult
to reach using a normal
lawn mower. Keep the
cord parallel to the
ground when cutting.
Avoid pressing the
trimmer head against the
ground as this can ruin
the lawn and damage the
tool.
• Hold the trimmer head
just above the ground at
an angle. It is the end of
the cord that carries out
the work. Let the cord
work at its own pace.
Do not press the cord
into the area to be cut.
• Do not allow the

contact with the ground
during normal cutting
procedures. Constant
contact can cause damage
and wear to the trimmer
head.
• Reduce the risk of
damaging plants by
shortening the cord to
10-12 cm and reducing
the engine speed.
Sweeping
• The rotating cord‘s
fanning effect can be
used for quick and easy
cleaning. Hold the cord
parallel to and above the
area to be swept and
move the trimmer from
side to side.
Clearing
• The clearing technique
removes all unwanted
vegetation. Keep the
trimmer head just above
the ground and tilt it.
Let the end of the cord
strike the ground around
trees, posts, statues and
the like. NOTE! This
technique increases the
wear on the cord.
• When cutting and
sweeping you should use
full throttle to obtain the
best results.
WARNING!
Beware of thrown objects. Always wear eye

fuel.
The machine is fitted with a two-stroke engine and must
always be run on a mixture of petrol and two-stroke oil. It is
important to measure the quantity of oil accurately, to ensure
the correct mixture ratio. Small discrepancies in the amount of
oil have a great bearing on the proportions of the fuel mixture
when mixing small amounts of fuel.
• Always start by filling half the quantity of gasoline required.
Then add the entire oil quantity. Mix (shake) the fuel
mixture. Fill the remaining quantity of gasoline.
• Mix (shake) the fuel mixture carefully before filling in the
machine‘s fuel tank.
• Do not mix more than max. one month’s supply of fuel.
WARNING!
Always provide good ventilation when

handling fuel.
• This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline.
NOTE!
WARNING!
Always use high grade
unleaded oil mixed
gasoline (minimum 87
RON). Leaded fuel will
destroy the catalytic
converter and it will no
longer serve its purpose.
The catalytic converter muffler gets very hot
during and after use.This also applies
during idling. Be aware of the fire hazard,
especially when handling the saw near
flammable substances or vapours.
!
Fuelling
• This engine is certified to
operate on unleaded
gasoline.
WARNING!
The following precautions reduce the risk of
fire:
!
Do not smoke or place any sources of heat
in the vicinity of the fuel. Never refuel when
the engine is running. Always stop the
engine and let it cool for a few minutes
before refuelling. Open the fuel cap slowly
when fuelling so that any over pressure is
released slowly.Tighten the fuel cap
carefully after refuelling. Always move the
machine from the fuelling place before
starting.
• The lowest
recommended octane
rating is 87. If you run
the engine on lower
octane rating than 87 so-
called “knocking“ can
occur. This leads to an
increased engine
temperature, which can
result in a serious engine
breakdown.
• Clean around the fuel
cap. Contamination in
the tank can disrupt
operations.
• When working at
continuous high revs a
higher octane rating is
recommended.
• Ensure that the fuel is
well mixed by shaking the
container before filling
the tank.

AIR PURGE: Press the air
purge diaphragm repeatedly
until fuel begins to fill the
diaphragm. The diaphragm
need not be completely
filled.
For reasons of safety follow
these recommendations!
• Check the blade to ensure
that no cracks have formed
at the bottom of the teeth
or by the centre hole. The
most common reason why
cracks are formed is that
sharp corners have been
formed at the bottom of
the teeth while sharpening
or that the blade has been
used with dull teeth.
Discard a blade if cracks
are found.
• Check that the support
flange is not cracked due
to fatigue or due to being
tightened too much.
Warm engine
Use the same starting
procedure as for the cold
engine, but do not set the
choke control in the choke
position. The start throttle
position is obtained by
setting the choke control in
the choke position and then
returning it to its original
position.
Discard the support flange
if it is cracked.
• Ensure the locking nut has
not lost its captive force.
The nut lock should have
a locking force of at least
1.5 Nm. The tightening
torque of the locking nut
should be 35-50 Nm.
Stop
The engine is stopped by
switching off the ignition.
• Check that the guard is
not damaged or cracked.
Replace the guard if it is
exposed to impact or is
cracked.
• Check that the trimmer
head and spray guard are
not damaged or cracked.
Replace the trimmer head
or spray guard if they are
exposed to impact or are
cracked.

If the machine is low on power, difficult to start or runs
poorly while idling always check the spark plug first.
If the spark plug is dirty, clean it and at the same time check
that the electrode gap is 0.5 mm. The spark plug should be
changed after about one month of operation or earlier if
necessary.
NOTE! Always use the recommended type of spark plug. An
incorrect spark plug can damage the cylinder/piston.
Cleaning the air filter
Dismantle the air filter cover and remove the air filter. Wash in
clean, warm soapy water. Ensure that the filter is dry before
refitting. An air filter used for a long period of time can never
be cleaned completely. Therefore it is necessary to replace the
filter from time to time with a new filter. A damaged air filter
must always be replaced.
If the machine is used in dusty conditions the air filter
should be soaked in oil, see the section on “Oiling the air
filter“.

Maintenance schedule
Below you will find some general maintenance instructions.
• See the cutting
equipment’s packaging
for correct filing
instructions.
Daily maintenance
• Check throttle trigger and throttle trigger lockout function.
• Check stop switch function.
• Check that blade/trimmer head does not rotate at idling.
• Clean the exterior of the machine.
• A correctly sharpened
blade is a prerequisite for
working efficiently and to
avoid unnecessary wear to
the blade and clearing
saw.
• Check that the harness is undamaged.
• Check the blade guard for damage or cracks.
• Change the guard in case of impacts or cracks.
• Check that the blade is properly centred, sharp, and without
cracks.
• Check the trimmer head for cracks and chips or damage.
Replace if necessary.
• Make sure that the blade
is well supported when
you use the file. Use a 5.5
mm round file with a file
holder.
• A non-balanced blade/trimmer head induces heavy
vibrations that may damage the machine.
• Check that the blade nut is sufficiently tightened.
• Make sure that the blade transport guard is undamaged and
that it can be securely fitted.
• The sharpening angle is
15°. Every other tooth is
sharpened to the right
and the intermediate
tooth to the left. When
the blade has been heavily
pitted by stones the upper
side of the teeth can, in
exceptional cases, need to
be dressed using a flat file.
In such cases this takes
place before sharpening
with the round file.
• Check that nuts and screws are sufficiently tightened.
Weekly maintenance
• Check the starter, especially cord and return spring.
• Clean the carburetor area.
• Clean the exterior of the spark plug.
• Remove it and check the electrode gap.
• Adjust it to 0,5 mm (.020"), or change the spark plug.
• Clean the cooling fins on the cylinder and check that the air
intake at the starter is not clogged.
• Check that the angle gear is filled with grease up to 3/4. Use
special grease.
• Clean the air filter.
• Clean or replace the muffler’s spark arrest screen (not on
mufflers with a catalytic converter).
Dressing the top side
must be carried out
equally for all teeth.
• Adjust the setting. This
should be 1 mm.
Monthly maintenance
• Clean the fuel tank.
• Clean the exterior of the carburetor and the space around it.
• Clean the fan and the space around it.
• Check fuel hose for cracks or other damage. Change if
necessary.
• Change fuel filter in fuel tank.
• Check clutch, clutch spring and clutch drum for wear.
Change if necessary.
• Check electrical wires and connections.
• Change the spark plug.
• Change the airfilter.
• Check and clean the muffler’s spark arrest screen if necessary
