Cutting (Fig. 24, 25, 27)
○ When cutting, operate engine at over 6500 rpm. Extended time
of use at low rpm may wear out the clutch prematurely.
○ Cut grass from right to left.
○ Cut grass from left to right (only curve shaft model).
○ Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade contacts a
solid object in the critical area.
A dangerous reaction may occur causing the entire unit and
operator to be thrust violently. This reaction is called blade
thrust. As a result, the operator may lose control of the unit
which may cause serious or fatal injury. Blade thrust is more
likely to occur in areas where it is diffi cult to see the material to
be cut.
○ Wear the harness as shown in the fi gure (if so equipped). The
blade turns counter-clockwise, therefore, be advised to operate
the unit from right to left for effi cient cutting. Keep onlookers out
of working area at least 15 m.
NOTE
Press the quick release button or pull emergency release fl ap
(If so equipped) in the event of emergency. (Fig. 26)
