CAUTION: Ensure you have reassembled the brush cutter completely before starting it. € Insert the Allen key through the hole in the gear case and rotate the receiver washer (3) until it is locked with the Allen key. € Loosen the nut (1) (left-hand thread) with the socket wrench, and remove the nut (1) and clamp washer (2). (1) (2) (3) With the Allen key still in place – Mount the cutter blade onto the shaft so that the guide of the receiver washer (3) fits in the arbor hole in the cutter blade. Install the clamp washer (2) and secure the cutter blade with the nut (1). This will not affect the engine, but it may cause poor operating behaviour. Similar problems will arise from the use of leaded fuel. To obtain optimum engine operation and to protect your health and the environment, use only unleaded fuel!To lubricate the engine, add two-stroke engine oil (quality grade: JASO FC or ISO EGD) to the fuel. The engine has been designed to use the specified twostroke engine oil at mixture ratio of 50:1 to protect the environment. Additionally, long service life accompanied by reliable operation and minimum emissions are guaranteed through the use of this mixture ratio. Reliable functioning of the brush cutter cannot be guaranteed unless this mixture ratio of 50:1 (specified 2-stroke engine oil) is strictly observed. Correct mixture ratio: Gasoline: Specified two-stroke engine oil = 50 : 1 or Gasoline: Other manufacturer’s two-stroke engine oil = 25 : 1 recommended NOTE: To prepare the fuel-oil mixture, first mix the entire oil quantity with half of the fuel required, then add the remaining fuel. Thoroughly shake the mixture before pouring it into the brush cutter tank. To ensure safe operation, do not add more engine oil than the specified amount. Doing so will only result in a higher production of combustion residues which pollute the environment and clog the exhaust channel in the cylinder as well as the muffler. [. . . ] € Remove the sponge element (2), wash it in lukewarm water and dry it completely. € After cleaning, put back the air cleaner cover (3) and fasten it with screw (1). NOTE: If there is excessive dust or dirt adhering to the air cleaner, clean it every day. A clogged air cleaner may make it difficult or impossible to start the engine, or may increase the engine rotational speed. [. . . ]
