When the machine is equipped with a grass-cutting disc, the disc
must be fitted with the stabilizer
Correct balancing is obtained when the stabilizer just gently touches
the ground [2].
[2]
It must be possible to raise the cutting attachment off the ground
with only a slight effort on the handles. If adjustment is required,
move the attachment point [4] forwards if the cutting attachment
feels too heavy or rearwards if it feels too light. Loosen the bolts with
the Torx wrench [3] supplied to move the harness attachment point
to the desired position.

CAUTION: (U type )
• Be careful not to pull the throttle cable too tight when moving
the handle [5]. Check that the throttle trigger operates
smoothly.
Adjust the position of the loop handle or the bike handle [5] by
loosening the four bolts to obtain a comfortable operating position.
When you have found the ideal position, check the balance again
and adjust if necessary.
Then securely tighten the bolts to lock the handle in position.
For reference, the standard adjustments are as follows for the
specified types of brushcutter:

FILLING THE FUEL TANK
The pressure inside fuel
tanks may increase when
the ambient temperature
rises. The cap should be
removed with care to avoid
any splashing of fuel. Fuel
should be stored in a cool
place, for short periods of
time, and must never be
left in direct sunlight.

Tank capacity
Recommended fuel
CAUTION:
• Clean the fuel tank cap and its edges to prevent foreign bodies
from entering the tank.
• Fill the fuel tank with a suitable funnel or a jerrycan with a suitable
spout.
• For easy filling, place the machine in the operating position.
• Make sure that the machine remains in a stable position
throughout this operation so that it does not fall over.
Petrol is extremely flammable and, in some circumstances, it
is explosive.
Fill the fuel tank in a well ventilated area with the engine
switched off.
Do not smoke and avoid any flames or sparks in the area where
filling is performed and where the fuel is stored.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. (The fuel level must be below the
filler neck).
After filling the tank, make sure that the tank cap is correctly
fitted.
Take care not to spill fuel during the tank filling operation.
Petrol splashes or vapours could catch fire.
Make sure that any spilled petrol has evaporated and that
vapours have dispersed before starting the engine.
Avoid direct contact of petrol with the skin and do not breathe
the vapours.
KEEP FUEL OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
