Remove the air cleaner element from

the air cleaner housing and clean it

thoroughly with soap and water. Rinse

and dry thoroughly. Add a few drops of

oil and work it in, then reassemble.

CAUTION!

Do not operate the unit if the air

cleaner or element is damaged, or

if the element is wet.

Every 10 to 15 hours of operation:

Remove and clean the spark plug.

Adjust the spark plug electrode gap

to 0.6 - 0.7mm. If the plug must be

replaced, use only: NGK BMR6A or

an equivalent spark plug of the correct

heat range.

CAUTION!

Before removing the spark plug,

clean the area around the plug to

prevent dirt and debris from getting

into the engine’s internal parts.

■ Clean any debris or dirt from the

hedge trimmer cutter blades.

Lubricate the blades before use and

after refueling. Check the cutters for

damage or incorrect adjustment.

■ Check for loose or missing screws

or components. Make sure the cutter

attachment is securely fastened.

■ Check the entire unit for leaking fuel

or grease.

Connect a grease gun to the grease

¿ tting on the left side of the gearcase.

Top off the gearcase grease level by

adding a high quality lithium-based

grease. Three pumps of the grease

gun handle should be adequate. DO

NOT OVERFILL THE GEARCASE!

(more frequently in dusty or dirty

conditions or before long-term

storage):

Remove the gearcase cover. Use

solvent and a soft brush to remove

all old grease from the gearcase. To

re¿ ll, hand-pack the gearcase with

approximately 40-50 grams of high

quality lithium-based grease (50-70%

of capacity). DO NOT OVERFILL!

■ Use a hooked wire to extract the

fuel ¿ lter from inside the fuel tank.

Inspect the fuel ¿ lter element. If it

shows signs of contamination from

debris, replace it with a genuine

Shindaiwa replacement fuel ¿ lter

element. Before reinstalling the ¿ lter,

inspect the fuel line. If you discover

damage or deterioration, the unit

should be removed from service until

it can be inspected by a Shindaiwa-

trained service technician.

(30 days or longer)

■ Thoroughly clean the exterior of the

machine.

■ Remove all clippings and other

debris from the cylinder ¿ ns and

other components (as previously

described under Daily Maintenance).

■ Drain all unused fuel from the fuel

tank, and then clear the carburetor

and fuel lines by running the trimmer

until it stops from lack of fuel.

IMPORTANT!

All stored fuel should be stabilized with

fuel stabilizer such as STA-BIL™

■ Remove the spark plug, and pour

about 7 grams of 2-cycle mixing oil

into the cylinder through the spark

plug hole. Before reinstalling the

spark plug, slowly pull the recoil

starter 2-3 times to distribute the oil

over the cylinder wall.

■ Service the air cleaner element as

previously described in the daily

maintenance section of this manual.

■ Repair or replace any damaged

components as required, and then

store the unit in a dean, dry, and

dust-free area.

CAUTION!

Over-lubricating may cause the

gearcase to run slower than

normal, and may also cause

leakage from excess grease.

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.

CAUTION!

Never store this unit with any fuel

remaining in the tank, fuel lines or

carburetor!

NOTE:

Your Shindaiwa warranty does not

include coverage for damage caused by

stale or contaminated fuels.

Seasonally (or whenever you

experience hard starting or poor

performance):

WARNING!

Never operate this machine

with a damaged or missing

mufÀ er or spark arrester? Operating

with missing or damaged exhaust

components is a ¿ re hazard, and

may also damage your hearing.

■ Hard starting or a gradual loss

of performance can be caused

by carbon deposits lodged in the

mufÀ er’s spark arrester screen.

Remove the spark arrester screw

and remove the screen from the

mufÀ er with the point of a small

pliers. Thoroughly clean the screen

with a stiff bristle brush. A damaged

or otherwise unserviceable screen

must be replaced. Reinstall by gently

tapping the screen into place and

retightening the screw.

Cutter performance of this unit

depends in great measure on cutter

blade clearance. Properly adjusted

blades will oscillate freely yet help

prevent binding of cut material between

blades. Adjust blades as follows:

1. Loosen all blade locknuts at least

one full turn.

2. Tighten each blade shoulder bolt

¿ rmly, and then loosen the shoulder

bolts 1/4 to 1/2 turn.

3. Working from the gearcase end, lock

each bolt in place by ¿ rmly tightening

its locknut while preventing the

shoulder bolt from turning.

When shoulder bolt adjustment is

correct, there should be a gap of 0.25-

0.50 mm between the cutter blades

and the ¿ at washers, and the ¿ at

washer beneath each bolt head should

turn freely.

WARNING!

The cutter blades are very

sharp! Always wear gloves

when working around the cutter

assembly!

CAUTION!

Operating the hedge trimmer with

worn or improperly adjusted cutters

will reduce cutter performance and

may also damage this unit.
