					OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR   
					BRUSHCUTTER ATTACHMENT   
					S Blade Thrust is a reaction that only occurs   
					when using a bladed unit. This reaction can   
					cause serious injury such as amputation.   
					Carefully study this section. It is important that   
					you understand what causes blade thrust,   
					how you can reduce the chance of its occur-   
					ring, and how you can remain in control of unit   
					if blade thrust occurs.   
					S Keep blade below waist level. It will be eas-   
					ier to maintain control of unit.   
					S Do not raise the engine above your waist as   
					the blade can come dangerously close to   
					your body.   
					S Do not swing the unit with such force that   
					you are in danger of losing your balance.   
					Bring the powerhead engine to cutting speed   
					before entering the material to be cut.   
					If the blade does not turn when you squeeze   
					the throttle trigger of the powerhead, make   
					sure the attachment is fully inserted into the   
					coupler.   
					Always release the throttle trigger and allow   
					powerhead engine to return to idle speed   
					when not cutting. The blade should not turn   
					while the engine is running at idle. If the blade   
					turns at idle, do not use your unit. Refer to the   
					CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT section of   
					the powerhead manual or contact your autho-   
					rized service dealer.   
					S WHAT CAUSES BLADE THRUST -- Blade   
					Thrust can occur when spinning blade con-   
					tacts an object that it does not cut. This contact   
					causes blade to stop for an instant and then   
					suddenly move or “thrust” away from object   
					that was hit. The “thrusting” reaction can be   
					violent enough to cause operator to be pro-   
					pelled in any direction and lose control of unit.   
					The uncontrolled unit can cause serious injury   
					if blade contacts operator or others.   
					S WHEN BLADE THRUST OCCURS   
					- 
					Blade Thrust can occur without warning if   
					the blade snags, stalls, or binds. This is   
					more likely to occur in areas where it is diffi-   
					cult to see the material being cut. By using   
					the unit properly, the occurrence of blade   
					thrust will be reduced and the operator will   
					be less likely to lose control.   
					S Maintain good firm footing while using the   
					unit. Do this by planting feet firmly in a com-   
					fortable apart position.   
					S Cut only grass, weeds, and woody brush up to   
					1/2 inch in diameter with weed blade. Do not   
					let blade contact material it cannot cut such as   
					stumps, rocks, fences, metal, etc., or clusters   
					of hard, woody brush with a diameter greater   
					than 1/2 inch.   
					S Cut while swinging the upper part of your   
					body from left to right.   
					S As you move forward to the next area to cut,   
					be sure to maintain your balance, and footing.   
					RECOMMENDED CUTTING POSITION   
					2 o’clock   
					S Use asharp blade. A dull bladeis more likely   
					to snag and thrust.   
					S Cut only at full throttle. The blade will have   
					maximum cutting power and is less likely to   
					bind or stall.   
					Cut using the 2   
					o’clock to 4 o’clock   
					4 o’clock   
					position of the   
					S “Feed” the blade deliberately and not too   
					rapidly. The blade can thrust away if it is fed   
					too rapidly.   
					blade   
					S Cut only from your left to your right. Cutting on   
					right side of the shield will throw debris away   
					from the operator.   
					WARNING: The operator or others   
					must not try to clear away cut material with the   
					engine running or the blade turning to avoid   
					serious injury. Stop engine and blade before   
					removing materials wrapped around blade or   
					shaft.   
					S Use the shoulder strap and keep a firm grip   
					on the unit with both hands. A properly ad-   
					justed shoulder strap will support the weight   
					of the unit, freeing your arms and hands to   
					control and guide the cutting motion.

				MAINTENANCE   
					BLADE MAINTENANCE   
					WARNING: Always stop unit and dis-   
					connect spark plug wire before performing   
					maintenance.   
					WARNING: The blade will continue to   
					spin after the engine stops or after the throttle   
					trigger has been released. To avoid serious   
					injury, make sure the blade has stopped   
					coasting anddisconnect the spark plug before   
					performing work on the blade.   
					CHECK FOR DAMAGED OR   
					WORN PARTS   
					Contact an authorized service dealer for re-   
					placement of damaged or worn parts.   
					S Blade Shield -- Discontinue use of brushcut-   
					ter attachment if shield is damaged.   
					WARNING: Always replace a blade   
					that is bent, warped, cracked, broken, or dam-   
					aged in any other way. Never attempt to   
					straighten and reuse a damaged blade. Use   
					only specified replacement blade. Wear pro-   
					tective gloves when handling or performing   
					maintenance on the blade to help avoid injury.   
					S Check blade for flatness periodically. Lay   
					the blade on a flat surface to inspect for flat-   
					ness. Throw away a blade that is not flat.   
					CHECK FOR LOOSE FASTENERS   
					AND PARTS   
					S Blade nut   
					S Fasteners   
					INSPECT AND CLEAN UNIT   
					AND DECALS   
					S After each use, inspect complete unit for

					6. Place the cupped washer onto the shaft.   
					Make sure the cupped side of the washer   
					is toward the blade.   
					7. Install blade nut by threading onto the shaft   
					counterclockwise as you are facing the nut.   
					NOTE: Make sure all parts are in place as illus-   
					trated, and the blade is sandwiched between the   
					dust cup and the retaining washer. There should   
					be no space between the blade and the dust cup   
					or the retaining washer.   
					8. Tighten blade nut firmly with a wrench   
					while holding screwdriver in position.   
					9. Remove the screwdriver.   
					10. Turn blade by hand. If the blade binds   
					against the shield, or appears to be un-   
					even, the blade is not centered, and you   
					must reinstall.   
					2. Insert a small screwdriver into aligned   
					holes. This will keep the shaft from turn-   
					ing while loosening the blade nut.   
					3. While holding the screwdriver in position,   
					remove blade nut by turning clockwiseas   
					you are facing the nut.   
					4. Remove both washers and the blade   
					from the blade shaft. Leave the dust cup   
					on the gearbox.   
					5. Install new blade and retaining washer onto   
					the threaded shaft extending from the gear-   
					box (blade must be between the dust cup   
					and the retaining washer). Make sure the   
					raised part of the retaining washer is facing   
					the gearbox, and the raised area fits into the   
					hole in the center of the blade.
