ENGLISH
Carefully read the safety regulations before assembly.
TRANSMISSION SHAFT ASSEMBLY
1. Put the rubber bellows (3) in the aluminum tube (16)
2. Loosen the 4 screws (15) of clamp (14)
3. Put the tube (16) into clamp (14), and tighten screws
(15)
4. Hook the rubber bellows (3) with spring (23)
ATWARNING: make sure screws are tightened
1. When using the machine, keep it on the right side of your
body (see fig. 1).
2. If you have never used this vehicle, familiarise yourself
with all the controls.
3. Regularly check the anti-vibration system.
4. Check hook gasket (1) fig. 9.
5. Check the harness connecting system (19) (fig. 10) and
make sure the release system is working properly.
6. Only cut during broad daylight, concentrate on what you
are doing and be prudent.
7. Do not work near live lines. ELECTROCUTION HAZARD
8. Hold the machine in a oblique direction, and do not stay
under the branches to be shaken; do not exceed 60°
angles, with respect ho a horizontal line.
HOW TO WORK Fig. 11:
To facilitate connection and positioning of hook (17) on the
branch, using the rear handgrip, transmission shaft (16),
fig.11, makes a turn and gasket (18), fig. 1, has a special
HARNESS fig. 10
The ACTIVE ergonomic harness has been designed to
ensure unparalleled comfort and work in full safety.
In order to exploit the advanced technology of this type of
machine, adjust the harness properly.
WARNING: The machine weight shall be supported
by cushion (A), fig.10
- Connect harness (21) to the machine using spring hooks
(19)
- Wear the harness, and place pad (A) at the center of
your shoulder.
- Adjust the machine position, by pulling or loosening
belts (B), fig. 10.
FUEL
WARNING: the machine is equipped with a two-stroke
engine; therefore, use only fuel mixed with oil.
Prepare only the mixture required for use. Us fuel with an
octane index not below 90.
Important: mix the fuel inside the tank thoroughly and for a
long time; repeat this step whenever you use the tank fuel. The

5. ASSEMBLY

ACCELERATOR CORD ASSEMBLY Fig. 4
1. Remove air filter cover (1)
2. Screw the terminal of accelerator cord (a) onto support
(B)
3. Connect the end of cord (C) to terminal (E)
4. Adjust the tensioning of cord (C), by loosening lock nut
(D) and turning cord tensioner (A)
After setting the correct tension, tighten lock nut (D). If the
adjustment is correct, the accelerator lever will have a
backlash of approx. 2mm, before moving lever (E).

6. USE OF BRUSHCUTTER

edge, in order to work also in positions not perfectly
perpendicular to the branch.
- Harness adjustment
- Connect spring hook to support, so that the machine weight
is transferred, in part, on the hook, and to prevent the hook
releasing the branch during work.
- For maximum shaking efficiency, select flexible branches
(Ø < 35mm).
- Select a branch far from the stem (see fig. 11)
- Position hook (17), fig.11, perpendicularly to the branch.
- The machine shall be supported only by the harness.
- Speed-up only for period not exceeding 5 seconds.
If not all the olives fall down, change the hooking position
and shake again.
- If the hook protrudes from the branch, set the accelerator
lever to minimum speed and make sure that the
transmission shaft is not moving.
- Hook the branch again, using handgrip (14) fig.11.
- Shake again.

7. PREPARING FOR USE

mixture characteristics are subject to aging and are likely to
change over the time (except for any mixture containing
ACTIV Echenon oil, that will last 12 months). Do not use
any mixture prepared several weeks ago, since it cold
damage the engine. Fill the ¾ of the tank with mixture, to allow
for fuel expansion.
ENGINE OIL fig. 11/A
Use 2-stroke ACTIVE oil, that has been specifically
produced to obtain optimum results (1:50 or 2%). If the
ACTIVE oil is not available, use another 2-stroke good-
quality oil (at least "API TC" class, 1:25 or 4%); see the
tables in Fig. 11/A
Poor-quality fuel or oil are likely to damage engine, piston
segments and seals.
REFUELLING
running. Carefully clean the area around the plug before
refuelling. Unscrew the tank plug slowly, to let excess
pressure out. Tighten the tank plug carefully after refuelling.
