8.3 Running in the engine
1. During the first ten hours of work, run the engine at a moderate RPM.
2. We advise you in any case not to maintain your engine at a high speed as the different
components must settle with each other during the process of running in the engine.
3. It is at the end of the run-in period that the engine will reach its maximum power.
4. After the first two hours of work, stop and make sure that all nuts and screws are securely
fastened, and tighten them if necessary.
8.4 Use of the Grass Trimmer
 Cut the grass like you are in a corridor about 1.5m wide. Move step by step, moving the
machine from left to right and vice-versa. Make sure at each step that you are still well
balanced on your feet.
 The line trimmer has a bump feed mechanism which releases line without having to stop
the engine. To release additional line lightly tap the cutting line and spool assembly on the
ground while operating the unit at high speed.
NOTE. Always keep the trimming line fully extended. Line release becomes
more difficult as the cutting line becomes shorter.
 Each time the head is bumped, it releases approximately 2cm of line. The cut off knife on
the guard will automatically cut off any excess line. For best results tap the head on hard
soil or bare ground.
 Do not hit stones (even small ones), piles of earth, and small pieces of wood or anything
else that could be hidden or poorly visible in the grass.
