English NOTE Automatically feeds more nylon cutting line when it is tapped at low rpm (not greater than 4,500 min-1). WARNING ● This product is equipped with a line limiter that will automatically cut any excess cord. When operating the unit, do not remove the guard or line limiter. As the resistance is greater for nylon cords as opposed to blades, mishandling could increase engine load and result in damage. ● Do not use with the engine set at low speeds. If the engine speed is low, grass may wrap around the attachment, causing the clutch to slip which could result in clutch abrasion. ● With nylon cord cutters, always use over 5-7/8" (15 cm) of cord. If the length of the cord is too short, rotation speed will increase and may cause damage to the nylon cord cutter. As the curved drive shaft tube model in particular is not equipped with a deceleration mechanism, the possibility of increased rotation speed for the cutting attachment is high. Stopping (Fig. 15) Decrease engine speed and run at an idle for a few minutes, then turn off ignition switch (8). 8 Fig. 15 WARNING A cutting attachment can injure while it continues to spin after the engine is stopped or power control is released. When the unit is turned off, make sure the cutting attachment has stopped before the unit is set down. 12 MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE, REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF THE EMISSION CONTROL DEVICES AND SYSTEMS MAY BE PERFORMED BY ANY NONROAD ENGINE REPAIR ESTABLISHMENT OR INDIVIDUAL. Carburetor adjustment (Fig. 16) Fig. 16 The carburetor is a precision part that mixes air and fuel, and it is designed to ensure high performance from the engine. Before the tool is shipped from the factory, its carburetor is adjusted during a test run. Only make adjustments if it is necessary because of environmental conditions (the climate or atmospheric pressure), the type of fuel, the type of two-cycle oil, etc. WARNING ● Because the carburetor is manufactured with a high degree of precision, do not disassemble it. ● For this product, the only setting of the carburetor that can be adjusted is the idle speed (T). ● Never start the engine without the complete clutch cover and tube assembled! Otherwise the clutch can come loose and cause personal injuries. T = Idle speed adjustment screw. Idle speed adjustment (T) WARNING ● When the engine is stopped, do not excessively turn the idle speed adjustment screw (T) in a clockwise direction. Otherwise, when the engine starts, the cutting attachment may unexpectedly rotate and cause an injury. ● Do not adjust the idle speed adjustment screw (T) for any reason other than to adjust the idling.
