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 so as to ensure that neither the cutting part nor the throttle trigger come into contact with any obstacle when the 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 servicing dealer for repair. USING THE PRODUCT IMPORTANT Cut only materials recommended by the manufacturer. And use only for tasks explained in the manual. 1. Grip the handles firmly with both hands using your whole hand. Place your feet slightly apart (slightly further apart than the width of your shoulders) so that your weight is distributed evenly across both legs, and always be sure to maintain a steady, even posture while working. 2. Keep cutting attachment below waist level. 3. Maintain the speed of the engine at the level required to perform cutting work, and never raise the speed of the engine above the level necessary. 4. If the unit starts to shake or vibrate, turn off the engine and check the whole unit. Do not use it until the trouble has been properly corrected. 5. Keep all parts of your body away from rotating cutting attachment and hot surfaces. 6. Never touch the muffler, spark plug, or other metallic parts of the engine while the engine is in operation or immediately after shutting down the engine. Doing so could result in

7 4. Safety precautions serious burns or electrical shock. IF SOMEONE COMES 1. Guard against hazardous situations at all times. Warn adults to keep pets and children away from the area. Be careful if you are approached. Injury may result from flying debris. 2. If someone calls out or otherwise interrupts you while working, always be sure to turn off the engine before turning around. MAINTENANCE 1. In order to maintain your product in proper working order, perform the maintenance and checking operations described in the manual at regular intervals. 2. Always be sure to turn off the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire before performing any maintenance or checking procedures. The metallic parts reach high temperatures immediately after stopping the engine. 3. When replacing the cutting attachment or any other part, or when replacing the oil or any lubricant, always be sure to use only ZENOAH products or products which have been certified by ZENOAH for use with the ZENOAH product. 4. In the event that any part must be replaced or any maintenance or repair work not described in this manual must be performed, please contact a representative from the store nearest ZENOAH authorized servicing dealer for assistance. 5. Do not use any accessory or attachment other than those bearing the ZENOAH mark and recommended for the unit. 6. Under no circumstances should you ever take apart the product or alter it in any way. Doing so might result in the product becoming damaged during operation or the product becoming unable to operate properly. HANDLING FUEL 1. The engine of the ZENOAH product is designed to run on a mixed fuel, which contains highly flammable gasoline. Never store cans of fuel or refill the tank of the unit in any place where there is a boiler, stove, wood fire, electrical sparks, welding sparks, or any other source of heat or fire which might ignite the fuel. 2. Never smoke while operating the unit or refilling its fuel tank. 3. When refilling the tank, always turn off the engine and allow it to cool down. Take a careful look around to make sure that there are no sparks or open flames anywhere nearby before refueling. 4. Wipe spilled fuel completely using a dry rag if any fuel spillage occurs during refueling. 5. After refueling, screw the fuel cap back tightly onto the fuel tank and then carry the unit to a spot 3 m or more away from where it was refueled before turning on the engine. TRANSPORTATION 1. When hand-carrying the product, cover over the cutting part if necessary, lift up the product and carry it paying attention to the blade. 2. Never transport the product over rough roads over long distances by vehicle without removing all fuel from the fuel tank. If doing so, fuel might leak from the tank during transport. CONTROLLING BLADE THRUST Blade thrust can cause serious personal injury. Carefully study this section. It is important that you understand what causes blade thrust, how you can reduce the chance of blade thrust and how you can remain in control of the unit if blade thrust does occur. 1. What causes blade thrust: Blade thrust can occur when the moving blade contacts an object that it cannot cut. 7 G B

8 4. Safety precautions This contact causes the blade to stop for an instant and then suddenly move or bounce away from the object that was hit. The operator can lose control of the unit and the blade can cause serious personal injury to the operator or any person nearby if the blade contacts any part of the body. 2. How you can reduce the chance of blade thrust: (1) Recognize that blade thrust can happen. By understanding and knowing about bounce, you can help eliminate the element of surprise. (2) Cut fibrous weeds and grass only. Do not let the blade contact materials it cannot cut such as hard, woody vines and brush or rocks, fences, metal, etc (3) Be extra prepared for blade thrust if you must cut where you cannot see the blade making contact such as in areas of dense growth. (4) Keep the blade sharp. A dull blade increase the chance of blade thrust. (5) Avoid feeding the blade too rapidly. The blade can bounce away from material being cut if the blade is fed faster than its cutting capability. (6) Cut only from your right to your left. (7) Keep your path of advance clear of material that has been cut and other debris. 3. How you can maintain the best control: (1) Keep a good, firm grip on the unit with both hands. A firm grip can help neutralize bounce. Keep your right and left hands completely around the respective handles. (2) Keep both feet spread apart in a comfortable stance and yet braced for the possibility that the unit could bounce. Do not overreach. Keep firm footing and balance. 8

11 6. Fuel Gasoline is very flammable. Avoid smoking or bringing any flame or sparks near fuel. Wipe up all spills before starting the engine. Make sure to stop the engine and allow it cool before refueling the unit. Keep open flames away from the area where fuel is handled or stored. G B IMPORTANT Never use oil for 4 cycle engine use or water cooled 2-cycle engine. Never use "FUEL WITH NO OIL (RAW GASOLINE)". Never use fuel laced with water. Mixed fuels which have been left unused for a period of one month or more may clog the carburetor or result in the engine failing to operate properly. Put remained fuel into an air-tight container and keep it in the dark and cool room. Please ask for mixed gasoline for air-cooled 2-cycle engines at your nearest gas station, or use fuel made by putting unleaded gasoline for automobiles and air-cooled 2-cycle engine oil into a mixing container in accordance with the following ratios and then shaking to mix well. Mixing ratios: When using Zenoah genuine 2-cycle oil (FC grade): 50:1 (100 ml of oil for every 5 liters of gasoline) When using commercially available 2-cycle oil (FB grade): 25:1(160 ml of oil for every 4 liters of gasoline) 11

12 7. Operation STARTING THE ENGINE Before starting the engine, inspect the entire unit for loose fittings or fuel leaks, and the cutting attachment is properly installed and securely fastened. Place the unit on a flat, firm place. Keep the cutting head clear of everything around it. 1. Turn the cap to the fuel tank to make sure that it is fixed on tightly. (F11) When restarting immediately after stopping the engine, move the throttle lever to the idling position. 5. While holding the unit firmly, pull out the starter rope quickly. (F14) 6.

Turn on the engine, return the throttle lever to the lowest speed position, and put the shawl band hook to the hanging part of the machine. 3. Adjust the length of the shawl band so that the blade may be parallel to the ground in the working position. In order to prevent slack during operation, turn up the extra part of the band from the buckle. F16 12

13 7. Operation HOW TO OPERATE EMERGENCY UNBUCKLING KNOB In case of getting the body away from the machine immediately in emergency, pull up the red knob on the top of the hanging part. You can be separated from the machine with the shawl band equipped. (F17) F17 IMPORTANT Operating at low speed makes it easier for grass, weeds, or twigs to become caught up in the blades, and also it makes the shaft and clutch wear down more quickly. G B CUTTING OPERATION METAL BLADE USAGE Always cut by guiding the head from your right to left. A metal blade cut best up to the point 1/3 from the edge. Use that area for cutting shrubs, tough and thick weeds. For cutting young grass, you can use up to 2/3 from the tip of blade. Adjust the engine speed according to the cutting objects. Cut the young grass at middle speed, and cut shrubs or tough and thick weeds at high speed. NYLON CUTTER USAGE Nylon cord consumes large power. Please note that the engine rotation speed in operation should be 50% as large as when using metal blade. Nylon cutter cut grass with the power of cord rotation. If you try to cut grass for the length of cord at one time, rotation speed becomes lower due to resistance and you cannot cut grass well. In case of large resistance, get the nylon cutter away from grass once, make the rotation speed higher, and cut a small amount of grass at one time. If you try to cut grass by swinging the brushcutter in the reverse way (from left to right), scraps fly in the direction away from the body. You can avoid getting your clothes dirty.

14 8. Maintenance REFILLING TRIMMING LINE For safety reasons, do not use metalreinforced line. 1. For replacement line, use a diameter of.095 in (2.4 mm). The cord holder is capable for a line up to 20 feet (6 m) on the 4 head. Avoid using a larger line as it may cut down the trimmer performance. 2. Pinch the slotted area on the both sides of the case to unhook the cover. (F18) 5. Hook each end of the line in the slot on the edge of the cord holder. (F21) F21 F18 (1) case (2) cover (3) cord holder 6. While holding the cord holder against the cover, pull the line ends to release them from the slot, and then put the ends through the eyelets on the cover. (F22) F22 3. Take out the cord holder and pull off the old line. Fold new line so that one half line is 4.7 in. (12 cm) shorter than another half. And then, hook bended end in the slot of the cord holder. (F19) F19 7. Line up the slot on the cover with the hook on the case. Make sure the spring is in place on the case. Press the cover against the case until it clicks. (F23) F23 4. Wind up the line in the correct direction as indicated on the spool. (F20) F20 14

15 8. Maintenance BLADE Sharpen each cutting edge and make sure the bottom corner is rounded. (F24) Do not cool the blade with water in case of using grinder. It may cause cracks on blade.
