8. Operation
• Each time the head is bumped, the line advances
about 1 inch (25.4 mm). For better effect, tap the
head on bear ground or hard soil. Avoid bumping in
thick, tall grass as the engine may stall by over-
load.
CHOOSE THE BLADE
Choose a suitable recommended cutting attachment
according to the object to be cut.
• When replacing blade always be sure to use prod-
ucts, which have been certified by ZENOAH.
WARNING
When sharpening, removing, or reattaching the
blade, be sure to wear thick, sturdy gloves and use
only proper tools and equipment to prevent injury.
STARTING THE ENGINE
Please refer to 5. For safe operation (P. 5 ~ 7), 8. Ope-
ration (P. 10 ~ 13).
WARNING
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 attachment
nor the throttle trigger come into contact with any
obstacle when the engine starts.
CUTTING METHOD
a) Use the front left side cutting.
b) Guide the blade from your right to left with it tilted
slightly to your left.
c) When mowing a wide area, start working from your
left end to avoid interference of cut grass.
d) The blade may be seized by weeds if the engine
speed is too low, or the blade cuts too deep into
weeds. Adjust the engine speed and cutting depth
according to the condition of object.
WARNING
• If the grass or other object gets caught in the
blade, or if the unit starts to shake or vibrate, turn
off the engine and check the whole unit. Change
the blade if it has been damaged.
• Turn off the engine and make sure the blade has
completely stopped before checking the blade,
and removing any object got caught in.
OPERATION
1. Check the bolt to fasten the blade and be sure the
bolt has no fault, and no abrasion.
2. Be sure that the blade and the holder have been
fastened according to instruction and that the blade
turns smoothly without abnormal noise.
WARNING
• The rotating parts fastened incorrectly may cause
serious accident to the operator.
• Make sure that the blade is not bent, warped,
cracked, broken or damaged.
• If you find any error to the blade, discard it and
replace with a new one, which is certified by ZE-
NOAH.
