The knife integrated in the plastic guard then ensures the line is cut to the optimum length. (Too much line reduces engine speed and cutting performance.) 4) BLADES: you can cut any type of grass, brushwood or shrub. Operate the machine like a sickle always cutting at full throttle. 5) WARNING: always use a well sharpened blade. A blade with worn teeth besides providing poor performance might also generate a sudden thrust. This can result in a violent sideways kick caused when the blade touches against wood or solid bodies, such thrust might then cause the operator to loose control of the machine itself. Never attempt to work with a damaged blade but replace it with a new one. THRUST: can occur when using any type of circular blade within the risk area: therefore it is advisable to cut using the remaining area of the blade. 7 A ALWAYS USE GENUINE ACCESSORIES AND SPARE PARTS AVAILABLE FROM AUTHORISED SERVICING DEALERS. THE USE OF NON-ORIGINAL ACCESSORIES D. FUEL MIX Use only fuel recommended by this manual. This product is fitted with a 2-stroke engine and therefore requires a 2-stroke petrol and oil mix. Use leaded (4 Star) or unleaded petrol with a minimum octane rating of 90. Only use oil from sealed containers. In order to obtain a good fuel mix, put the oil into the container before the petrol. The use of sub-standard petrol or oil may reduce performance or reduce the life of certain components. Leaded Petrol If using leaded petrol, the correct fuel mix is achieved by either using 5% (20:1) of a well known brand of 2-stroke engine oil, or else 2.5% (40:1) of special engine oil. Unleaded Petrol If using unleaded petrol, you must use a totally synthetic 2-stroke engine oil or branded 2-stroke engine oil. In either case use 2.5% (40:1) of oil. IMPORTANT Always shake the fuel mix container thoroughly before pouring any fuel mix. Fuel mix properties may deteriorate with time and should be used up within 2 months. We recommend that you prepare fuel mix according E. SAFETY GUARD ASSEMBLY In the interest of safety, it is imperative that the unit is used with the correct guard which is delivered as standard with the unit. Only use blades or nylon string heads clearly marked with a MAXIMUM R.P.M. SPEED of at AND SPARE PARTS INCREASES THE RISK OF ACCIDENTS AND IN SUCH A CASE THE COMPANY IS NOT LIABLE FOR DAMAGE TO PEOPLE AND/OR THINGS. to your immediate requirements only. Never use fuel mix more than 2 months old so as to avoid possible engine damage. WARNING Do not smoke when re-fuelling. Always open the fuel cap slowly, to release any pressure build up in the tank. Re-fuel in open spaces only, keeping away from naked flames or sparks. Safe Storage of Fuel Petrol fuel mix is highly inflammable. Put out all cigarettes, pipes and cigars before working with fuel. Avoid spilling fuel. Store fuel in a cool, well ventilated place, in an approved container specifically designed for the purpose. Never store engine with fuel in the tank in enclosed, poorly ventilated areas, where fuel fumes may reach an open flame, spark or pilot light such as in a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer etc. Petrol fumes can cause an explosion or a fire. Never store large amounts of fuel. To prevent possible restarting problems avoid running the fuel tank dry. This also helps to extend engine life. least 10,500 min-1. Assemble the guard for nylon string head as illustrated. Tighten the attachment bolts (V). Line cutter blade (L): assemble as illustrated. F. BLADE AND NYLON STRING HEAD ASSEMBLY Always ensure the correct guard is assembled to suit the kind of blade or nylon string head to be used as well as the direction of rotation marked on the shaft or on the guard itself. (See section: SAFETY GUARD ASSEMBLY). 1) Assemble the nylon string head as illustrated: a) Upper cap - b) Nylon string head. Tighten clockwise. 2) Assemble metal blade as illustrated: a) Upper cap with blade centering - b) Metal blade with text facing downwards- c) Blade flange - d) Fixed Mower gauge - e) Blade locking nut - f) Safety split pin. 3) While tightening the blade assembly can be held fast by inserting a wrench or the screwdriver supplied into the cap and gearcase holes; to do this, rotate the cap until the two holes align. NB. Only use blades or nylon string heads marked with a maximum speed of at least 10.500 min-1. For instructions to replace the nylon string please refer to illustrations N1-5 in the front of this manual. 8 G. ENGINE/SHAFT ASSEMBLY A DANGER. Do not run engine without shaft attached as clutch could fly off. 1) Insert the shaft (A) into the engine joint (B) making the female squared end (C) inside the joint mates with the male squared end (D) of the shaft. Rotate the shaft from right to left to obtain a precise fit. Now tighten the locking bolt (E) clockwise to ensure the shaft is held firmly in the joint. 2) If the joint is not tightened onto the engine housing, first make sure the shaft is fully and correctly engaged up to the shank, then ...
