Vibration and cold
It is believed that a condition called Raynaud's Phenome-
non which affects the fingers of certain individuals may be
brought about by exposure to vibration and cold. Expo-
sure 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 ail-
ment 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 hedge
trimmer or other hand-held power equipment is not re-
quired.
If you experience discomfort redness and swelling of
the fingers, followed by whitening and loss of feeling,
consult 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
diagnosed, the more likely permanent nerve and muscle
damage can be prevented.
Failure to observe these instructions could result in damage
to your health.

Preparing the fuel
Fuel
Fuel is a mixture of regular grade petrol and an air-cooled 2-
stroke engine oil.
Minimum 89 Octane unleaded petrol is recommended. Do not
use fuel containing methyl alcohol or more than 10 % of ethyl
alcohol.
Recommended mixture ratio; 50 : 1 (2 %) for ISO-L-EGD
Standard (ISO/CD 13738), JASO FC, FD grade and Shindai-
wa recommended oil.
- Never use two-stroke oil intended for water-cooled engines,
motor-cycle engines.
- Do not mix directly in engine fuel tank.
- Avoid spilling petrol or oil. Spilled fuel should always be
wiped up.
- Handle petrol with care, it is highly inflammable.
- Always store fuel in approved container.
Fuel supply
Fill the fuel tank outdoors over bare ground and install the fuel
cap securely. Do not pour fuel indoors.
Place the product and the refuelling tank on the ground when
performing the refuelling operation. Do not refuel the product
on the loading platform of a truck, or in other such places.
Always ensure that the fuel level remains below the shoulder
level of the fuel tank when refuelling.
There is a difference in pressure between the fuel tank and the
outside air. When refuelling, loosen the fuel tank cap slightly to
eliminate the difference in pressure.
Always wipe up any fuel spills.
Move at least 3m away from where you refueled before you
start the engine.
Keep the refuelling tank in a shaded area away from fire.
DANGER
Fuel is highly inflammable and there is a risk of fire if it is handled incorrectly. Carefully read and ob-
serve the precautions in the section of this manual titled "For safe use of your product".
Once the refuelling is complete, securely tighten the fuel tank cap and do not forget to check that there
are no leaks or discharges of fuel from the fuel pipe, fuel system grommets, or around the fuel tank
cap. If you do find fuel leaks or discharges, stop using the product immediately and contact your deal-
er to have it repaired.
If the fuel ignites, it could cause burns and fire.
CAUTION
There is difference in pressure between the fuel tank and the outside air. When refuelling, loosen the fuel tank cap
slightly to eliminate the difference in pressure.
Otherwise, fuel may get spewed.
NOTE
Stored fuel ages. Do not mix more fuel than you expect use in thirty (30) days. Do not mix directly in fuel tank.

Engine operation
Engine oper ation
Starting the engine
Starting a cold engine
(Connect the spark plug cap if the product has been in storage for
a long period of time)
The starting procedure depends on whether the engine is cold or
warm. A cold engine is started as follows.
1. Remove the blade cover and check the cutter blades. If an-
ything is wrong, replace it with a new one.
2. Placing the product on level ground, check to ensure that the
blades does not come into contact with the surface of the
ground or any other impediment using a beam or other such
implement.
3. Check that there are no fuel leaks.
4. Move the ignition switch away from the Stop position.
5. Move the choke lever to the "Cold Start" position.
6. Alternately press and release the purge bulb until the fuel is
sucked up into it.
7. Checking that the area around you is safe, hold the front
handle firmly with your left hand as shown in the illustration,
pulling several times on the starter grip.
8. If you hear an explosion-like sound and the engine stops im-
mediately, move the choke lever to the "Run" position and
continue pulling on the starter grip to start the engine.
9. If the engine starts immediately when you carry out the in-
structions in step 7, above, return the choke lever gently to
the "Run" position.
10. Leave the engine to warm up at idle speed for a while.
11. Depress the throttle trigger lockout and gradually squeeze
the throttle trigger.
WARNING
When starting the engine, observe the precautions described from Page 4 in the section "For safe use of your prod-
uct" to ensure that you operate the product correctly.
If the cutter blade moves even though the throttle trigger is in the idle speed position when the engine is started,
adjust the carburettor before using the product.
Cutter blade will start moving as engine attains clutch engagement speed.
Failure to observe the precautions could cause an accident or injury, or even lead to a fatality.
NOTE

Engine operation
Engine warm-up
1. Once the engine starts, allow it to warm up for 2 to 3 minutes
at idling (i.e. low speed).
2. Warming the engine helps to lubricate its internal workings
more smoothly. Allow the engine to warm up fully, especially
when it is cold.
Starting a warm engine
1. Move the ignition switch away from the Stop position.
2. Make sure that the throttle trigger is at the idle speed posi-
tion.
3. Check that the choke lever is in the "Run" position.
4. If fuel tank is not empty, pull on the starter grip to start the
engine.
5. If no fuel is visible in the purge bulb, alternately press and re-
lease the purge bulb until the fuel is sucked up into it.
6. Checking that the area around you is safe and pull on the
starter grip to start the engine.
Stopping the engine
1. Release the throttle trigger and set the engine to idling (i.e.
low speed).
2. Move the ignition switch to the Stop position.
3. In the event of an emergency, stop the engine immediately
using the ignition switch.
4. If the engine fails to stop, move the choke lever to the "Cold
Start" position. The engine will stall and come to a halt (a
choke stop).

Hedge and shrub trimming operation
Hedge and shrub trimm ing operati on
Basic hedge trimming operation
Pulling the throttle trigger after the engine is started will cause
the engine speed to rise and the cutter blades to start moving.
Adjust the engine speed depending on, for example, the
amount of the hedges to be cut.
Conduct cutting work with the cutter blades positioned away
from you. Do not orient the cutter blades toward yourself or put
it closer to yourself.
When cutting the top of the hedges or shrubs, do so by moving
the cutter blades from side to side. Tidy trimming will be made
possible by moving the blades slightly cast down.
When cutting sides, do so by moving the cutter blades in the
bottom-up direction for tidy trimming.
Do not press the cutter blades against the objects like trees.
Operate the product in accordance with the movement and the
speed of the cutter blades.
NOTE
This product is designed to cut shrubs and hedges with branches no larger than 6 mm in diameter.
When starting to trim, run the engine at full throttle. Cutting at less at than full speed can damage the clutch by allowing it to
slip. When you do not conduct trimming or cutting work, do not run the engine at full throttle.
