MOUNTING THE DOUBLE-SHOULDER STRAP AND
HOLDING THE MACHINE
1. Put the double-shoulder strap on your body and
insert the two parts of the strap buckle into each
other until a click is heard (Fig. F1).
2. Align the hook of hip pad into eyelet of the shoulder
strap loop fixed on the shaft, and press the shaft
down softly (Fig. F2 & F3 & F4).
3. Hold the brush cutter with both hands on the right
side of your body (Fig.F5). The trimmer head should
be parallel to the ground so that it easily contacts
the material to be cut without the operator having to
bend over.
4. Releasing the string trimmer can be achieved in two
ways; Release the strap buckle (Fig. F6) or press the
hook of the strap and take it apart from the eyelet
fixed on the shaft (Fig. F2).
WARNING:
When an emergency occurs, take it off
from your shoulder immediately, no matter what way the
strap is in. Releasing the strap buckle (Fig. F6) and both
hands taking off your shoulders at each side is a quick
release method
WARNING:
You should not use the single-shoulder
strap and double-shoulder strap simultaneously.

same time.
To Stop
Move the machine away from the cutting area and release
the trigger switch to stop it.
