Use of the manual
• Do not use the machine if you are tired, in poor
health or under the effects of alcohol or
medication that could affect your reactions.
• Make sure you know how to stop the engine
and blade if necessary (see section entitled
“Starting and stopping the engine”).
• Anyone who uses the machine should have
read the entire manual with extreme care.
• All users should be familiar with the operations
for use of the machine under absolutely safe
conditions as described in this manual, and
should be instructed in the proper cutting
techniques to use, possibly by practical
demonstration.
• Do not allow children or persons who are not
familiar with these instructions and are not
sufficiently trained to use the brush cutter.
Local regulations may specify an age limit for
users.
• Keep this manual with the machine when
selling or lending it, to enable the future users
to familiarize themselves with the product and
instructions for safe use.
• All parts of the manual are equally important for
the purpose of preventing injury to the operator
or damage to the machine. To facilitate your
reading, section B is divided into parts that can
be called up in the rest of the manual, marked
with the “CAUTION” symbol followed by the
number of the corresponding paragraph, to
concentrate your attention on the main safety
procedures related to a particular situation.
Inspect the machine carefully before every
use, in case of violent impact or signs of
malfunction. Make sure the machine is correctly
assembled, and all its parts are working

properly. Make sure the screws are all in place
and securely tightened. Check operation of the
accelerator control block and make sure there is
no leakage of fuel. Check that the cutting tool
does not move with the motor running at idle
speed. Make sure the transmission pipe is
properly fastened to the motor joint and the line
cutter head or blade are correctly fastened with
the screw fastening the blade fully tightened.
Check the backpack and make sure the motor is
securely fastened to its housing.

or cracks or appear excessively worn. Have your
Authorized Service Center replace any damaged
parts. For nylon string heads, use only strings
made of flexible material recommended by the
manufacturer. For example, you should never
use metal wire because it could cause serious
injuries to people, property and animals. An
unsuitable string could break and turn into a very
dangerous missile. In mounting the cutting
utensils follow the instructions in the chapter
entitled “Usable cutting tools and their
Prior to use
• Respect of the procedures described in this
manual does not eliminate the risks of
accidents but does reduce the probability of
their occurring or the effect of the damage.
• If you have never used a brush cutter before,
practice using it for a while before actually
starting to work with it.
• The operator or user is responsible for any
damages to third parties or their property, and
for any dangers to which they may be subject.
• Do not use this machine for any other purpose
than that for which it was designed, using the
proper cutting devices as indicated in the
instructions.

• Closely fitting protective clothing (do not wear
shorts or loose clothing). Do not wear jewelry
that could get caught in moving parts of the
machine.
• Safety boots with non-slip sole, crush-resistant
toe cap and protection against cuts (do not
wear sandals or work barefoot).
• Sturdy gloves resistant to cuts and vibrations.
• Safety visor or protective goggles. Remove the
protective film if any.
Twigs or grass may jam between the safety
guard and the blade or nylon string head.
10
Never try to remove this material with the engine
running and the blade rotating. Watch out for the
rotating parts and hot surfaces of the machine.
Contact between the blades and any extraneous
objects could cause serious injury to the
operator or other people or animals in the
vicinity, and could also damage the machine.
Cut only the material recommended for each
accessory and take care not to let the blades
come into contact with rocks, metal parts, etc.
The blade is sharp, so be very careful when
handling it even with the engine off.
• Hearing protection.
• Hard hat (if there is any risk of falling objects).
Health precautions

obstacles. Use the machine holding it to the right
of your body so that the exhaust fumes can
escape freely without obstruction from your
clothing. While working, grip the brush cutter
firmly with both hands. Stand in a stable position
on your feet. Keep the grips clean and dry. Do
not use the brush cutter while standing on a
ladder or other unstable support. You should
always be able to control your balance. Never
use the machine under extreme weather
conditions or in bad weather (very low
temperatures, very hot, humid climate, fog, rain,
wind, etc.). Keep all parts of your body and
clothing away from the blades during startup or
when the engine is running. During use, keep the
work zone in front of you. Never cut walking
backwards as you cannot see possible hazards.
Do not put the machine down with the engine

exhaust fumes can get very hot and may contain
sparks. Do not use the machine near
inflammable material. The muffler gets very hot
during use and remains hot for some time after
switching off the engine. This also applies at idle
speed. Take every precaution to reduce the fire
hazard, especially in the presence of
inflammable materials or gas. Start the engine at
a distance from the filling site and far away from
any fuel tanks (at least 3 meters).
When filling the fuel tank, dry any spilled
fuel. Never add fuel in the tank when the
15
engine is running or hot to avoid the risk of fire
(let the engine cool off before filling the tank). Fill
the tank outdoor, far from flames or sparks. Do
not take the cap off the tank with the engine
running. Open the cap on the tank carefully to
eliminate any excess pressure. After fueling,
close the cap tightly. Take care not to spill any
fuel. The fumes produced by the fuel can cause
an explosion or fire. Gasoline is highly

put out your cigarette, pipe or cigar. Do not
smoke or take sources of heat or sparks near the
fuel. Never refuel near or over inflammable
objects (dry leaves, etc..).

off the engine and carry it with the blade or nylon
string head facing backward. For your safety,
during transport and storage, always protect the
blade with the guard supplied with the machine
(see “Protection for transport”). When you
transport the brush cutter in a motor vehicle,
place it in a stable fixed position so that no fuel
leaks out. We recommend emptying the fuel tank
whenever you transport the machine.
solid bodies. The force of the kickback can cause
the operator to lose control of the machine. The
blade is capable of amputating arms and legs.
Always work with a sharp blade. A blade with
worn teeth can create problems in cutting and
can cause KICKBACK, that is, a violent thrust on
the front of the machine caused by the impact of
the blade against wood or solid foreign bodies.
This kickback can cause loss of control of the
machine. Never sharpen a damaged blade:
replace with a new one. Kickback can also occur
when cutting with any type of blade in the
hazardous zone (see I1). Do not let the blade cut
in the risk sector to prevent kickback.
Fire prevention precautions
Never work with the brush cutter in the
presence of fire or spilled gasoline. Do not

D. Fuel Mixture
Preparation of the mixture
The characteristics of the mixture tend to
deteriorate in time, so you should only prepare
as much mixture as you are going to need (the
use of deteriorated fuel can seriously damage
the engine).
7 14 16
ƽ
ƽ
Do not use any other type of fuel than the
type recommended in this manual. This
machine is equipped with a two-stroke
engine and should therefore be fueled
with a mixture of unleaded gasoline (with
a minimum octane rating = 90) and fully
synthetic oil specific for two-speed
engines that use unleaded gasoline in
the proportions indicated in the table on
the cover, fig. D.
Filling the tank
14 15
ƽ
Clean the area around the fuel cap before
removing it, to prevent any impurities from
contaminating the fuel. Take the cap off the fuel
container carefully. Unscrew the cap on the fuel
tank and fill it with the necessary quality, using a
funnel. During use, to prevent problems in
starting the engine again, we strongly
recommend that you avoid letting the fuel run out
in the tank.
Control the specifications of the oil shown
on the package; the use of oil lacking the
ƽ
specifications expressly indicated in this
manual could cause serious damage to
the engine!
Fuel storage
14 15
ƽ
ƽ
To obtain the best mixture, pour the oil into an
approved container first, followed by the
gasoline, and shake the container well (every
time you take fuel out of it).
Store the fuel in a cool, well-ventilated
place, in an approved fuel storage
container.

Never store the engine with fuel in the tank in a
poorly ventilated place where the fumes produced
by the gasoline could propagate and reach a fire,
candle, burner or furnace pilot light, water heater,
dryer, etc. Never store excessive quantities of
fuel.

Position the motor so that the fuel cap faces
upward and the bracket for fastening it to the
frame is on one side. Screw pin A onto the motor
as shown in the figure and tighten it securely.
Fasten the motor to the frame and tighten it
securely with the nut provided (B).
The string cutting blade housed in the plas-
tic shield will cut the nylon string to opti-
mum length; a string that is too long
reduces the rotation speed of the engine
and interferes with cutting efficiency, as well
as increasing the risk of injury.
E2. Insertion of padding on frame
The extension (B) should be installed only for use
with the nylon string head, with the aid of the
string cutter blade (L), that regulates the length of
the string and thus the cutting diameter. For cor-
rect assembly see the illustration on the cover
and perform the following sequence of steps:
Insert the extension (B) on the safety guard (A) at
the reference notches (C), and fasten with the
screws (D), then apply the string cutter blade (L)
with the cutting edge facing towards the outside
of the shield, and fasten it with the screw (E)
(Make sure the screws are tightened all the way

After every use
In order to avoid overheating the motor, remove
any dust and dirt from the slots on the cylinder
cover and finds of the cylinder using a wooden
scraper. Clean the backpack (if you wish, you
can wash the padding after removing it from the
frame). Store the machine in a dry place.
Periods of prolonged disuse
See “Environmental information”.
If you use the machine in an
exceptionally dirty or dusty environment
these operations should be carried out
more often.

After 25 hours of use
Remove the filter as shown in the figure and
clean it using a gentle jet of compressed air. For
more thorough cleansing, you can wash it with
soapy water.
H. Replacement of nylon string
To replace the reel of string, press both the
release pawls indicated by the arrows, remove
the empty reel (fig. H2), unroll any string left and
rewind the new string. Open the original package
of string and insert the ends of the two strings in
the eyelets on the reel, then wind the strings
completely on the reel in the same direction and
fasten the end of each string in the 2 opposite
grooves. Replace the reel in its housing and
thread the ends of the strings in their bushings.
Pull each string so that about 15 cm comes out
on each side. Reassemble the nylon string head
as shown (fig. H5). If the reel becomes
excessively worn, replace it with a whole new
reel.
After 50 hours of use
Add some high speed gear grease in the
gearbox through hole (C). Remove and clean the
spark plug (set the space between the electrode
at 0.5/0.6 mm). Replace if excessively
encrusted. In case of excessive encrustation
check the carburetor adjustment, the percentage
of oil in the fuel mixture and make sure the oil is
of excellent quality and suitable for two-stroke
engines.

Cutting techniques
Trimming borders
During the cutting operations, keep the
engine running at high speed. After every
cutting stage, decelerate the engine to
minimum speed as running it at top
speed without a load can damage the
engine severely.
Angle the nylon string head keeping it a short
distance from the ground. Cut using the end of
the string. Do not press the string against the
material to be cut.

Drawing out the string
I2. KICKBACK can occur when cutting is done
with the risk sector of the blade; we recommend
cutting with the rest of the blade. Take care that
the cup supporting the blade just grazes the
ground. This will prevent the blade from touching
the ground.
During cutting, the nylon string wears naturally
causing an increase in the speed of the engine
and a reduced cutting capacity. When this
happens, to bring out more string bump the head
against the ground: release the throttle trigger to
reduce the engine speed to less than 8000 rpm.
Tap gently on the ground with the button (A) as
shown in the figure and the string will come out
automatically. Accelerate again. If the string
does not come out make sure there is still some
left and try again.
Use of sawtooth blade

ƽ
Do not attempt to cut trees with a larger
than recommended diameter, to prevent
the risk of kickback or damage to the
blade.
Thinning grass with the grass cutter blade
2 16
The sawtooth blade serves to cut bushes and
small trees, with maximum diameter of seven
centimeters. Rest the left side of the special
shield on the trunk while cutting to limit the risk of
losing control of the machine.
ƽ
The grass is cut with swinging motions from side
to side, maintaining the blade parallel to the
ground. During the right to left swing the grass is
cut, while the backswing must be made without
using the blade.
