the person using the product should be
considered a hazardous area into
which no one should enter. If
necessary, yellow warning rope,
warning signs should be placed around
the perimeter of the area. When work
is to be performed simultaneously by

be taken to constantly look around or
otherwise check for the presence and
locations of other people working so as
to maintain a distance between each
person sufficient to ensure safety.
2. Check the condition of working area to
avoid any accident by hitting hidden
obstacles such as stumps, stones,
cans, or broken glass.
Remove any obstacle before beginning
work.

fasteners and fuel leakage. Make sure
that the cutting attachment is properly
installed and securely fastened.
4. Be sure the cutting attachment guard is
firmly attached in place.
5. Always use the harness. Adjust the
harness for comfort before starting the
engine. The harness should be

STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Keep bystanders and animals at least
15 m away from the operating point. If
you are approached, immediately stop
the engine.
2. The product is equipped with a
centrifugal clutch mechanism, so the
cutting attachment begins to rotate as
soon as the engine is started by putting
the throttle trigger into the start
position. When starting the engine,
place the product onto the ground in a
flat clear area and hold it firmly in place
IMPORTANT
so as to ensure that neither the cutting
part nor the throttle trigger come into

engine starts.
Never place the throttle trigger into the
high-speed position when starting the
engine.
3. After starting the engine, check to
make sure that the cutting attachment
stops rotating when the throttle is
moved fully back to its original position.
If it continues to rotate even after the
throttle trigger has been moved fully
back, turn off the engine and take the
unit to your authorized ZENOAH
