IMPORTANT!

Safety and Operation Information Labels: Make sure all

information labels are undamaged and readable. Imme-

diately replace damaged or missing information labels.

New labels are available from your local authorized

Shindaiwa dealer.

Be Aware of the Working Environment

Avoid long-term

operation in very hot

or very cold weather.

Make sure

bystanders

or observers

outside the

15 meter (50

feet) “danger

zone” wear eye

protection.

Be extremely careful

of slippery terrain,

especially during rainy

weather.

If contact is made with a hard object,

stop the engine and inspect the cutting

attachment for damage.

Be constantly alert for

objects and debris that

could be thrown either

from the rotating cutting

attachment or bounced

from a hard surface.

Reduce the risk of bystanders being

VWUXFNE\À\LQJGHEULV0DNHVXUHQR

one is within 15 meters (50 feet)—

that’s about 16 paces of an operating

attachment. Stop immediately if a child,

pet, or person comes within a 15 meter

(50 feet)radius. Outside this radius,

there is still a risk of injury from thrown

objects.

Beware of a coasting

blade when brushcutting or

edging. A coasting blade

can injure while it continues

to spin after the throttle

trigger is released or after

the engine is stopped.

ALWAYS clear your work area of trash

or hidden debris that could be thrown

back at you or toward a bystander.

When operating in rocky terrain or

near electric wires or fences, use

extreme caution to avoid contacting

such items with the cutting attachment.

The Properly Equipped Operator

Always wear a harness when operating the unit .

It adds comfort and helps ensure safety by limiting

movement fore and aft. When the harness is

adjusted properly, the unit should balance with the

cutting attachment parallel to the ground.

Always operate with both hands

¿UPO\JULSSLQJWKHXQLW

:HDUFORVH¿WWLQJFORWKLQJWR

protect legs and arms. Gloves

offer added protection and are

strongly recommended. Do not

wear clothing or jewelry that

could get caught in machinery

or underbrush. Secure long hair

so that it is above shoulder level.

NEVER wear shorts!

Wear hearing protection devices and a

broad-brimmed hat or helmet. A helmet

is required when using a blade-equipped

brushcutter to clear small trees.

Always wear eye protection such as

goggles or safety glasses to shield

against thrown objects.

When operating with a blade, make sure

the handle is positioned to provide you with

maximum protection from contacting the

blade. Always make sure the handlebar

is installed in accordance with the

manufacturers instructions.

Keep away from the rotating

trimmer line or blade at all

times, and never lift a moving

attachment above waist-high.

Wear appropriate footwear (non-skid

boots or shoes): do not wear open-

toed shoes or sandals. Never work

barefooted!

Keep a proper footing and do not

overreach. Maintain your balance at all

times during operation.

Always make sure the

appropriate cutting attachment

shield is correctly installed and

in good condition. Do not

operate the unit if the

cutting attachment shield

is missing, loose, or

broken.

Long-term exposure to vibration

can damage your hands.

Prolonged exposure to excessive noise

is fatiguing and could lead to impaired

hearing.

Do not operate the unit

if the cutting attachment

shield is missing, loose,

or broken.

Safety (continued)

CAUTION

Never use any type of gasoline contain-

ing more than 10% alcohol by volume!

Some types of gasoline contain alcohol

as an oxygenate. Oxygenated gaso-

line may cause increased operating

temperatures. Under certain condi-

tions, alcohol-based gasoline may also

reduce the lubricating qualities of some

2-cycle mixing oils.

oils should never be used in your

Shindaiwa engine.

Mixing fuel

Filling the fuel tank

CAUTION

This engine is designed to operate on

a 50:1 mixture consisting of unleaded

gasoline and ISO-L-EGD or JASO FD

class 2-cycle mixing oil only. Use of

non-approved mixing oils can lead to

excessive carbon deposits.

Use only fresh, clean unleaded gasoline Ŷ

with a pump octane of 87 or higher.

Mix all fuel with a 2-cycle air-cooled

mixing oil that meets or exceeds ISO-L-

EGD and/or JASO FD classiﬁed oils at

50:1 gasoline/oil ratio.

Starting A Flooded Engine

Hook the strap hook to the hanger on 1.

the outer tube.

Wear the shoulder strap so that the 2.

hook stays at your right hand side.

IMPORTANT!

Adjust the shoulder strap or harness so the

shoulder pad rests comfortably on the off-side

shoulder and the cutting path of the cutting

attachment is parallel to the ground. Make sure

all hooks and adjustment devices are secure.

Shoulder Strap

WARNING!

Always wear a shoulder strap

when operating this unit with a blade.

A shoulder strap is also recommened

when using trimmer line.

Adjust the length of the shoulder strap 3.

so that you can hold and operate the

machine comfortably.

CAUTION!

Do not push the rotating line into trees, Ŷ

wire fences or any material that could

tangle or break line ends.

Operation of trimmer without a cutting

attachment shield and using exces-

sive line length can lead to premature

clutch failure.

Operation at low rpm can lead to Ŷ

premature clutch failure.

Operation

Your Shindaiwa unit may be equipped with

one of several Shindaiwa trimmer head mod-

els, each with features for speciﬁc applica-

tions and/or operational requirements.

Cutting grass with a trimmer head

Trimmer head styles:

Semi-automatic. Trimmer line is indexed

when the operator taps the trimmer head

on the ground during operation.

Manual. The operator indexes line manu-

ally with the grass trimmer stopped.

Fixed.

The operator must stop the unit and

add new lengths of trimmer line manually.

Flail.

This device, designed for clearing

weeds and light brush, features three nylon

blades attached to the head by pivots.

NOTE:

For proper operation, always refer to the

instructions accompanying the trimmer

head being used.

NOTE:

Additional hardware may be required to

mount the Fixed Line or the Flail type

trimmer heads.

CAUTION!

Operation at low rpm can lead to pre-

mature clutch failure.

Hold the grass trimmer so the trimmer head

is angled slightly into the area to be cut. To

ensure maximum trimmer-line service life, cut

only with the tip of the trimmer line. Cut grass

by swinging the unit's trimmer head from left

to right. Keep the trimmer head horizontal.

Engine Operating Speeds

Operate at full throttle while cutting grass.

Edging

Tilt the handle about 100° to the left (from

horizontal) and move forward, holding

the trimmer or brushcutter vertically as

shown.

Trimming and Mowing Grass

Tilt the handle about

100° to the left

Before working with a blade-equipped Ŷ

unit, always inspect and clean the

area of objects that could interfere

with or damage the blade.

Never use a blade near sidewalks,

fence posts, buildings or other objects

that could cause injury or damage.

Never use a blade for purposes other Ŷ

than those for which it was designed.

Whenever you strike a hard object with a Ŷ

blade, always stop the brushcutter and

carefully inspect the blade for damage.

NEVER OPERATE THE BRUSHCUT-

TER WITH A DAMAGED BLADE!

A blade-equipped unit must be Ŷ

equipped with a bicycle-type handle-

bar or barrier bar as well as a har-

ness or shoulder strap.

Always make sure the cutting attach-

ment shield is properly installed

before operating this unit.

Using a Blade

Blade Thrust

“Blade thrust” is a sudden sideways or

backward motion of the brushcutter. Such

motion may occur when the blade jams or

catches on an object such as a sapling tree

or tree stump. BE CONSTANTLY ALERT

FOR BLADE THRUST AND GUARD

AGAINST ITS EFFECTS!

Brushcutter harness

A harness provides additional protection

against blade thrust. In addition, a har-

ness gives signiﬁcant support and comfort

to help ensure safe and efﬁcient opera-

tion. When operating a unit with a blade,

make sure both the handle and harness are

adjusted to the size of the operator using

the unit.

Engine Operating Speeds

Operate the unit at full throttle while cut-

ting. Best fuel efﬁciency is obtained by

releasing the throttle when swinging back

after a cut.

To prevent possible engine damage, do

not allow the brushcutter to run at high

speeds without a load.

Avoid operating the engine at low speeds.

Doing so can lead to rapid clutch wear. In

addition, slow-speed operation tends to

cause grass and debris to wrap around

the cutting head.

The blade rotates counter-clockwise.

For best performance and to minimize

being stuck by debris, move the blade

from right to left while advancing on your

work. Position the blade so cuts are made

between the blade’s 8 o’clock and 10

o’clock positions (as viewed from above).

DO NOT cut between the 10 o’clock and 5

o’clock positions.

WARNING!

When cutting wood with a

blade, feed the blade slowly—never

strike or “slam” a spinning blade

against the wood.

WARNING!

DO NOT use 2-tooth or non-

Shindaiwa approved 4-tooth cutting

blades with Shindaiwa trimmers and

brushcutters.

Vertical Cuts

Hold the brushcutter with the blade at a

90° angle to the ground so the blade’s bot-

tom edge rotates toward the operator.

Move the blade from top to bottom through

the cut, and cut only with the bottom edge

of the blade.

Using a Blade

Cut on the left

side of the blade.

KEEP YOUR BODY

OUTSIDE THE

PATH OF BLADE

ROTATION

WARNING!

When making vertical cuts,

never allow the blade to exceed waist

height.

Rotation

Brushcutter Handlebar

A brushcutter handlebar or barrier bar

helps prevent the operator from moving

forward, or the unit moving rearward, thus

preventing inadvertent bodily contact with

the blade. ALWAYS KEEP THE HANDLE-

BAR OR BARRIER BAR SECURELY IN

PLACE ON THE UNIT!

WARNING!

Operation (cont.)

Prior to each work day, perform the

following:

Remove all dirt and debris from the

engine, check the cooling ﬁns and

air cleaner for clogging, and clean as

necessary.

Carefully remove any accumulations

of dirt or debris from the mufﬂer and

fuel tank. Check cooling air intake

area at base of crankcase. Remove

all debris. Dirt build-up in these areas

can lead to engine overheating, ﬁre,

or premature wear.

Daily maintenance

Lubricate the blades before use and Ŷ

after refueling. Check the cutters for

damage or incorrect adjustment.

Clean any debris or dirt from the cut-

ting attachment.

carburetor adjusting screws) are tight.

General maintenancel

NOTE:

Using non-standard replacement parts

could invalidate your Shindaiwa warranty.

Air Filter

The C4 engine that powers your Shindaiwa

model is a hybrid 4-stroke engine. As a

hybrid, the engine is lubricated by oil mixed

with the gasoline and air from the carburetor

that moves through and around the internal

parts of the engine in a similar way that a

2-stroke engine is lubricated. Without the

heavy duty 2-stage air ﬁlter equipped on all

C4 engines, dust and dirt could also move

through the engine, decreasing engine life,

increasing valve wear and the need for more

frequent valve adjustments. To keep your

C4 engine strong and reliable, Shindaiwa

recommends that you check and service the

air ﬁlter as instructed in the 10-Hour Mainte-

nance section that follows.

Check for loose or missing screws or Ŷ

components. Make sure the cutter

attachment is securely fastened.

Check the entire unit for leaking fuel

or grease.

Make sure nuts, bolts, and screws

(except carburetor idle speed adjusting

screws) are tight.

Remove and inspect spark plug

Hooked wire

Maintenance (continued)

50-hour maintenance

Remove and replace the fuel ﬁlter

element.

Use a hooked wire to extract the fuel ﬁlter

from inside the fuel tank. Inspect the fuel

ﬁlter element. If it shows signs of contam-

ination, replace with a genuine Shindaiwa

replacement fuel ﬁlter element.

CAUTION!

Make sure you do not pierce the fuel line

with the end of the hooked wire. The line

is delicate and can be damaged easily.

139/150-Hour Maintenance

Maintenance after ﬁrst 139-hours,

then every 150-hours thereafter.

Combustion chamber should be decar-

bonized, and the valve clearance should

be adjusted. It is highly recommended

that this is done by a Shindaiwa-trained

service technician.

Replace the spark plug annually: Use

only the type recommended in the

”Speciﬁcations” section or an equivalent

resistor type spark plug of the correct

heat range. Set spark plug electrode

gap to 0.6 -0.7 mm.

The valve clearance should be adjusted

annually or every 135 hours. It is

highly recommended that this is

done by a Shindaiwa-trained service

technician.

Before reinstalling the new ﬁlter element,

inspect the condition of all the fuel system

components (fuel pick-up line, fuel return

line, tank vent line, tank vent, fuel cap

and fuel tank). If damage, splitting or

deterioration is noted, the unit should

be removed from service until it can be

inspected or repaired by a Shindaiwa-

trained service technician.

IMPORTANT!

If a new gasket is not available and/or the

old gasket is not damaged, the old gasket

may be reused. Never use cracked or dam-

aged gaskets!

Turn engine over several times, and 6.

returnthe to TDC-compression.

Recheck with proper feeler gauge to

make sure clearance adjustment did

not change as a result of tightening the

locknut. Readjust as necessary.

Replace rocker arm cover gasket to 7.

assure proper sealing and install cover.

Remove cylinder cover, rocker arm cover, 1.

and spark plug.

Rotate the crankshaft

while observing the piston through the

spark plug opening. When the piston

is at the top of the compression stroke

(TDC), the valves can be adjusted.

Loosen adjuster locknut so that the 2.

2.5 mm Allen socket head adjustment

screw can turn freely.

Insert 0.10 mm feeler gauge between 3.

valve stem tip and rocker arm.

Turn adjustment screw (clockwise = 4.

tighter, counter-clockwise = looser)

until feeler gauge is almost snug. Back

off just enough to allow gauge to slip

out with limited resistance.

While holding the adjustment screw in 5.

place with the Allen driver, tighten the

locknut with a wrench.

CAUTION!

Performing a valve adjustment

incorrectly may cause hard starting

and/or can damage the engine.
