(7) Then allow the engine about 2–3 minutes to
warm up before subjecting it to any load.
(8) Check that the cutting attachment does not rotate
when the engine is idling.
2. Starting the warm engine
Use only 1, 6 and 8 of the starting procedure for a
cold engine.
If the engine does not start, use the same starting
procedure as for a cold engine.
Cutting
WARNING
Always use the harness (if so equipped)
and wear the proper attire and protective
equipment when operating the unit. (Fig. 12)
Keep others including children, animals,
bystanders and helpers outside the 15 m
hazard zone. Stop the engine immediately if
you are approached. (Fig. 13)
When grass or vines wrap around
attachment, stop engine and attachment
and remove them. Continuing operation
with grass or vines wrapped around the
attachment may result in damages such as
early abrasion of the clutch.
Fig. 12 Fig. 13
NOTE
Use in accordance with local laws and
regulations.
Using a semi-auto cutting head
Set the engine at high speed when using this
attachment.
Cut grass from left to right. The cut grass will
be discharged away from the body, minimizing
transfer to your clothes. (Fig. 14)
Cut grass from right to left as the cutting
attachment of the curved drive shaft tube model
rotates clockwise.
With nylon cord, use about 3/4” (2 cm) of the end
of the cord to cut grass. Using the full length of
the cord will reduce rotation speed and make
cutting di cult.
Fig. 14
12
English
NOTE
Automatically feeds more nylon cutting line
when it is tapped at low rpm (not greater than
4,500 min
-1
).
WARNING
This product is equipped with a line limiter
that will automatically cut any excess cord.
When operating the unit, do not remove the
guard or line limiter.
As the resistance is greater for nylon cords
as opposed to blades, mishandling could
increase engine load and result in damage.
Do not use with the engine set at low
speeds. If the engine speed is low, grass
may wrap around the attachment, causing
the clutch to slip which could result in clutch
abrasion.
With nylon cord cutters, always use over
5-7/8” (15 cm) of cord. If the length of
the cord is too short, rotation speed will
increase and may cause damage to the
nylon cord cutter. As the curved drive shaft
tube model in particular is not equipped with
a deceleration mechanism, the possibility
of increased rotation speed for the cutting
attachment is high.
Stopping (Fig. 15)
Decrease engine speed and run at an idle for a few
minutes, then turn o ignition switch (8).
8
Fig. 15
WARNING
A cutting attachment can injure while it
continues to spin after the engine is stopped
or power control is released. When the
unit is turned o , make sure the cutting
attachment has stopped before the unit is
set down.
MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE, REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR
OF THE EMISSION CONTROL DEVICES AND
SYSTEMS MAY BE PERFORMED BY ANY NON-
ROAD ENGINE REPAIR ESTABLISHMENT OR
INDIVIDUAL.
Carburetor adjustment (Fig. 16)
Fig. 16
The carburetor is a precision part that mixes air and
fuel, and it is designed to ensure high performance
from the engine. Before the tool is shipped from
the factory, its carburetor is adjusted during a
test run. Only make adjustments if it is necessary
because of environmental conditions (the climate or
atmospheric pressure), the type of fuel, the type of
two-cycle oil, etc.
WARNING
Because the carburetor is manufactured
with a high degree of precision, do not
disassemble it.
For this product, the only setting of the
carburetor that can be adjusted is the idle
speed (T).
Never start the engine without the complete
clutch cover and tube assembled! Otherwise
the clutch can come loose and cause
personal injuries.
T = Idle speed adjustment screw.
Idle speed adjustment (T)
WARNING
When the engine is stopped, do not
excessively turn the idle speed adjustment
screw (T) in a clockwise direction.
Otherwise, when the engine starts, the
cutting attachment may unexpectedly rotate
and cause an injury.
Do not adjust the idle speed adjustment
screw (T) for any reason other than to adjust
the idling.
13
English
Run the engine while adjusting the idling.
(1) If the engine stops during idling
Start the engine, and slowly turn the idle speed
adjustment screw (T) in a clockwise direction
until it is in a position at which the engine rotates
smoothly. At that time, ensure that the cutting
attachment is not spinning.
(2) If the cutting attachment rotates during idling
Slowly turn the idle speed adjustment screw (T)
in a counter-clockwise direction until it is in a
position at which the cutting attachment does not
rotate. At that time, ensure that the rotation of the
engine is smooth.
WARNING
If the cutting attachment still rotates after
adjustment of the idle speed adjustment
screw (T), immediately stop the engine and
cease use, then contact the nearest Hitachi
Authorized Service Center.
Air lter (Fig. 17)
The air lter (12) must be cleaned from dust and dirt
in order to avoid:
Carburetor malfunctions

Engine power reduction
Unnecessary wear on the engine parts
Abnormal fuel consumption
Clean the air lter daily or more often if working in
exceptionally dusty areas.
12
Fig. 17
Cleaning the air lter
Open the air lter cover and remove the air lter (12).
Rinse it in warm soap suds. Check that the lter is
dry before reassembly. An air lter that has been
used for some time cannot be cleaned completely.
Therefore, it must regularly be replaced with a new
one. A damaged lter must always be replaced.
Fuel lter (Fig. 18)
Remove the fuel lter (13) from the fuel tank, and
replace it if it is dirty.
NOTE
A blocked fuel lter (13) can prevent the supply
of fuel and cause a rotation malfunction of the
engine.
13
Fig. 18
Spark plug (Fig. 19)
The spark plug condition is in uenced by:
An incorrect carburetor setting
Wrong fuel mixture (too much oil in the gasoline)
A dirty air lter
Hard running conditions (such as cold weather)
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug
electrodes, which may result in malfunction and
starting di culties. If the engine is low on power,
di cult to start or runs poorly at idling speed, always
check the spark plug rst. If the spark plug is dirty,
clean it and check the electrode gap. Re-adjust
if necessary. The correct gap is 0.024˝ (0.6 mm).
The spark plug should be replaced after about 100
operation hours or earlier if the electrodes are badly
eroded.
