RedMax BC2200E Trimmer User Manual


 
LINE HEAD USAGE
• HOW TO USE
1.Always wear eye protection such as
safety goggles. Never lean over the
rotating cutting head. Rocks or other
debris could be thrown into eyes and
face and cause serious personal Injury.
2.Keep the debris guard attached in place
at all times when the unit is operated.
• TRIMMING GRASS AND WEEDS
Always remember that the TIP of the line
does cutting. You will achieve better results
by not crowding the line into the cutting area.
Allow the unit to trim at its own pace.
1.Hold the unit so the cutting head is off the
ground and tilted about 30 degrees toward
the sweep direction.
2.Use full throttle when cutting.
3.You can avoid thrown debris by sweeping in
the correct direction, I.e., from your right to
the left for BT2200LDC & BC2200E, and
from your left to the right for BC2200LDC.
4.Use a slow, deliberate action to cut heavy
growth. The rate of cutting motion will
depend on the material being cut. Heavy
growth will require slower action than will
light growth.
5.Never swing the unit too hard because you
may lose your balance or control of the unit.
6.Try to control the cutting motion with the hip
rather than placing the full workload on the
arms and hands.
7.Take precautions to avoid wire, grass and
dead, dry, long-stem weeds from wrapping
around the cutting head shaft. Such
materials can stall the cutting head and
cause the clutch to slip, resulting in damage
to the clutch system, if repeated frequently.
WARING!!!
• ADJUSTING LINE LENGTH
Your trimmer is equipped with a bump head
that allows the operator to advance the line
without stopping the engine. When the line
becomes short, lightly tap the head on the
ground while running the engine at full
throttle. Each time the head is bumped, the
line advances about 1 inch (25.4 mm). For
best results, tap the head on bare ground or
hard soil. If line release is attempted in tall
grass, the engine may stall.
NOTE :
Always keep the trimming line fully extended.
Line release becomes difficult as the cutting
line becomes shorter.
