Operation
g. Cut only from your right to your left.
h. Keep your path of advance clear of
material that has been cut and other
debris.
3. How you can maintain the best control:
a. Keep a good, firm grip on the unit with
both hands. A firm grip can help
neutralize bounce. Keep your right and
left hands completely around the
respective handles.
b. Keep both feet spread apart in a
comfortable stance and yet braced for
the possibility that the unit could
bounce. Do not overreach. Keep firm
footing and balance.
c. Always use the shoulder harness.
Adjust the harness for comfort before
starting the engine. The harness should
be adjusted so the left hand can
comfortably hold the handlebar grip
approximately waist high.
d. Do not cut material waist high or over to
avoid loss of unit control.
e. Do not swing the unit with such force
that you are in danger of losing your
balance.
Stop engine before removing grass
or weed wrappings to avoid injury
from accidental blade rotation.
TO SHARPEN BLADE:
1. Grind away each cutting edge and its back
evenly and maintain similar shape to
original.
2. Sharpen each cutting edge and make sure
the bottom corner is rounded.
• If edge bottom is finished square,
the blade will tend to crack from the
corner during operation.
• Do not cool the blade with water in
case of using grinder. It may cause
cracks on blade.
