Vibration and cold
It is believed that a condition called Raynaud's Phenomenon which affects the fingers of certain individuals may be
brought about by exposure to vibration and cold. Exposure to vibration and cold may cause tingling and burning,
followed by loss of colour and numbness in the fingers. The following precautions are strongly recommended be-
cause the minimum exposure which might trigger the ailment is unknown.
Keep your body warm, especially the head and neck, feet and ankles, and hands and wrists.
Maintain good blood circulation by performing vigorous arm exercises during frequent work breaks, and also by
not smoking.
Limit the number of hours of operation. Try to fill each day with jobs where operating the trimmer or other hand-
held power equipment is not required.
If you experience discomfort redness and swelling of the fingers, followed by whitening and loss of feeling, con-
sult your physician before exposing yourself further to cold and vibration.
Failure to observe these instructions could result in damage to your health.
Repetitive stress injuries
It is believed that over-using the muscles and tendons of the fingers, hands, arms and shoulders may cause sore-
ness, swelling, numbness, weakness and extreme pain to the areas just mentioned. Certain repetitive hand activities
may put you at a high risk for developing a repetitive stress injury (RSI). To reduce the risk of RSI, do the following:
Avoid using your wrist in a bent, extended or twisted position.
Take periodic breaks to minimize repetition and rest your hands. Reduce the speed and force in which you do the
repetitive movement.
Do exercises to strengthen hand and arm muscles.
See a doctor if you feel tingling, numbness or pain in your fingers, hands, wrists or arms. The sooner RSI is diag-
nosed, the more likely permanent nerve and muscle damage can be prevented.
Failure to observe these instructions could result in damage to your health.

Maintenance and care
Replacing fuel filter
1. Use a piece of metal wire or the like to pick up fuel filter (A)
through fuel tank opening.
2. Pull old filter from fuel line (B).
3. Install new fuel filter.
Carburettor adjustment
Every unit is test run at the factory and the carburettor is fine
tuned for maximum performance.
Before adjusting carburettor, clean or replace air filter, start en-
gine and run several minutes to bring it to operating temperature.
The engine must return to idle speed whenever the throttle lever
is released. Idle speed is adjustable, and must be set low enough
to permit the engine clutch to disengage the attachment.
To adjust the carburettor proceed as follow:
1. Place the unit on the ground, then start the engine, and then
allow it to idle 2-3 minutes until warm.
2. If the attachment moves when the engine is at idle, reduce
the idle speed by turning the idle adjustment screw(T) coun-
ter-clockwise.
3. Repeat the process of accelerating to full throttle and return
to idle a few times. Check that the attachment stops moving
at idle.
4. If a tachometer is available, the engine idle speed should be
final adjusted to the settings recommended in the Specifica-
tions section.
NOTE
If filter is excessive dirty or no longer fits properly, replace it.
WARNING
YOU MAY ADJUST THE IDLE SPEED ONLY by turning the idle speed adjustment screw (T).
During carburettor adjustment, the attachment may move. Pay utmost attention and care to the attachment so as not
to get injured by the moving object.
When carburettor adjustment is completed, the attachment should not move at idle speed, otherwise serious per-
sonal injury may result.
You must NOT carry out any Carburettor adjustment, other than the idle speed. All other adjustments MUST be per-
formed by an authorized service dealer, or serious personal injury may result due to malfunction of the engine.
CAUTION
When there is trouble with the carburettor, contact an authorized service dealer.
NOTE
When the carburettor cannot be adjusted properly with the idle
speed adjustment screw (T), you must contact an authorized
service dealer.
15
Maintenance and care
Cooling system maintenance
Remove dust and dirt from between fins (A).
Before each use, remove accumulated debris from bottom en-
gine intake grille located between the fuel tank and starter.
Cleaning silencer
Carbon deposits in silencer (A) will cause a drop in engine out-
put and overheating. Spark arrestor screen must be checked
periodically. Clean deposits from silencer.
Check fuel system
Check before every use.
After refuelling, make sure fuel does not leak or exude from
around fuel pipe (A), fuel grommet (B) or fuel tank cap (C).
In case of fuel leakage or exudation, there is a danger of fire.
Stop using the machine immediately and request your dealer
to inspect or replace.
Check spark plug
IMPORTANT
To maintain proper engine operating temperature, cooling air must pass freely through the cylinder fin area. This
flow of air carries combustion heat away from the engine. Overheating and engine seizure can occur when:
Air intakes are blocked, preventing cooling air from reaching the cylinder.
Dust and grass build up on the outside of the cylinder. This build-up insulates the engine and prevents the heat
from leaving.
Removal of cooling passage blockages or cleaning of cylinder fins is considered "Normal Maintenance". Any resultant failure
attributed to lack of maintenance is not warranted.
Air intake
IMPORTANT
Do not remove the silencer cover. If necessary, Please consult
your dealer.
NOTE
When remove the spark plug cap, pry it with using the socket
wrench.
16
Maintenance and care
1. Check plug gap. Correct gap is 0.6 mm to 0.7 mm.
2. Inspect electrode for wear.
3. Inspect insulator for oil or other deposits.
4. If the spark plug is dirty, clean it. Do not sandblast to clean.
Remaining sand will damage engine.
5. If the electrodes or terminals are worn, or if there are cracks
in the ceramics, replace them with new parts. (see Specifi-
cations page 19)
6. Tighten to 10 N·m - 15 N·m (100kgf·cm to 150 kgf·cm).
The spark test (for checking whether the spark plug is spark-
ing) must be carried out by your dealer.
