Checking Unit Condition

NEVER operate the unit with the cutting
attachment shield or other protective
devices removed!

A cutting attachment shield or
other protective device is no guarantee

FLYING DEBRIS!
Idle the engine briefly before stopping
(about  minutes), then slide the ignition
switch to the "O" (Engine OFF) position.
The engine must return to idle speed
whenever the throttle lever is released.
Idle speed is adjustable, and must be set
low enough to permit the engine clutch to
disengage the cutting attachment.

WARNING!
The cutting attachment must
NEVER rotate at engine idle! If the idle
speed cannot be adjusted by the proce-
dure described here, return the trimmer
to your Shindaiwa dealer for inspection.
Use only authorized Shindaiwa parts and
accessories with your Shindaiwa trimmer. Do
not make modifications to this unit without
written approval from Shindaiwa, Inc.
ALWAYS make sure the cutting attachment
is properly installed and firmly tightened
before operation.
NEVER use a cracked or warped cutting
attachment: replace it with a serviceable one.

holder. If a properly installed attachment
vibrates, replace the attachment with new
one and re-check.
