CUTTING TIPS

(See Fig 6)
■ Do not push into the grass to be cut. Move from side to
side, moving forward a little at the end of each sweep.
■ Keep the product tilted towards the area being cut.
■ Do not cut in dangerous cutting area.
■ Use the tip of string to do the cutting; do not force
string head into uncut grass.
■ Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear, even
breakage. Stone and brick walls, kerbs and wood may
wear string rapidly.
■ Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood mouldings,
cladding and fence posts can easily be damaged by
the string.
ADVANCING THE LINE
Line advance is controlled by tapping the string head on
grass while running engine at full throttle.
■ Run engine at full throttle.
■ Tap the knob on ground to advance string. The string
advances each time the knob is tapped. Do not hold
the knob on the ground.
OPERATING THE BRUSCHUTTER
(See Fig 5-6)
RBC254SESO: Hold the product with the right hand on the
rear handle and the left hand on the front handle.
RBC254SBO: Hold the product with the right hand on the
trigger handle and the left hand on the left handle.
Keep a fi rm grip with both hands while in operation. The
product should be held at a comfortable position with the
trigger handle about hip height. Maintain your grip and
balance on both feet. Position yourself so that you will not
be drawn off balance by the kick-back reaction of the cutting
blade.
Adjust the shoulder strap to position the product at a
comfortable operating position and to assure that the
shoulder strap will reduce the risk of operator contact with
the blade.
Exercise extreme caution when using the blade with this
product. Blade thrust is the reaction which may occur
when the spinning blade contacts anything it cannot cut.
This contact may cause the blade to stop for an instant,
and suddenly "thrust" the product away from the object that
was hit. This reaction can be violent enough to cause the
operator to lose control of the product. Blade thrust may
occur without warning if the blade snags, stalls or binds.
English (Original instructions)
This is more likely to occur in areas where it is diffi cult to
see the material being cut. For cutting ease and safety,
approach the weeds being cut from the right to the left.
In the event that an unexpected object or woody stock is
encountered, this could minimise the blade thrust reaction.
TRI-ARC
The Tri-ArcTM blade is suited only for thicker weeds and
pulpy stalks. When the blade becomes dull, it can be
turned over to extend the life of the blade. Do not sharpen
the Tri-ArcTM blade.
