STEEL BLADE OPERATIONS
Your ECHO Trimmer/Brushcutter is designed for
fast, efficient weed and brush control in areas
which are otherwise inaccessible to power
equipment. Standard configuration includes a
handle bar and nylon line head for light trimming
and weed clearing. Two special steel blades are
available as options and recommended for use in
extended heavy weed and brush clearing
operations: ⎯
1.Blade:weed and grass 8 tooth 20 cm (8 in)
diameter
2.Blade:brush 80 tooth 25 cm (10 in) diameter
MOWING
• The nylon line will effectively mow large areas
of heavy grass and/or weeds. Use the standard
12.5 to 15 cm (5 to 6 in) of line and operate at
full throttle.
• When mowing cultivated areas such as lawns
hold the cutter head parallel to the ground to
avoid scalping.
SCALPING
1. The cleaning of weeds and grass right down to
the earth can be accomplished very easily with
the nylon line.
2. Scalping around trees and brushes is
particularly effective, but care should be
exercised not to bruise the bark of young and
sensitive growth.
3. In flower beds, always remember that the nylon
line will cut in a complete circle to avoid cutting
flowers instead of weeds.
TREE
SWEEPING
1. Sweeping grass and other debris from a hard
surface can be done very quickly.
