bility. Use in the dark or poor visibility area may

cause unexpected accident.

2. Avoid using the machine when it is hard to

keep your balance, for example, working on a

steep surface or windy day.

3. During operation, never stand on an unstable

20-minute rest every hour.

Cutting Tools

1. Use a suitable cutting tool for your work.

— Nylon cutting heads (string trimmer heads)

are suitable for trimming lawn grass.

— Metal blades are suitable for cutting weeds,

high grasses, bushes, shrubs, underwood,

thicket, and the like.

Always use the cutting tool guard properly

suited for the cutting tool used.

2. When using a nylon cutting head, use only



manual. Never use wire or wirerope. They can

3. Never use metal multi-piece pivoting chains,

4. When handling the metal blade, always wear

gloves and put the blade cover on the blade.

The blade can cut bare hands.

5. When using metal blades, avoid “kickback”

and always prepare for an accidental kickback.

See the section Kickback.

Kickback (blade thrust)

Kickback (blade thrust) may occur when the spin-

unit and/or operator to be propelled in any direc-

tion, and possibly lose control of the unit, resulting

material being cut.

Kickback occurs particularly when applying the

blade segment between 12 and 2 o’clock to solids,

bushes and trees with 3 cm or larger diameter.

Fig.1

To avoid kickback:

1. Apply the segment between 8 and 11 o’clock.

2. Swing the tool evenly in half-circle from right

to left, like using a scythe. This allows the

proper segment of blade to contact plants to be

cut.

3. Never apply the segment between 12 and 2

o’clock.

4. Never apply the segment between 11 and 12

o’clock and between 2 and 5 o’clock, unless

the operator is well trained and experienced

and does it at his/her own risk.

Fig.2

5. Never use cutting blades close to solids, such

as fences, walls, tree trunks and stones.

6. Never use cutting blades vertically, for such

operations as edging and trimming hedges.

Maintenance

1. Have your machine serviced by our authorized

service center using only identical replace-

ment parts. Use only identical spare parts and

accessories supplied by MAKITA. Incorrect

repair and poor maintenance can shorten the life

of the machine and increase the risk of accidents.

2. Never alter or remove any components of the

machine.

3. After use, clean the machine and check all

screws and nuts for tightness.

4. Check the condition of the cutting tool, cutting

tool guard and shoulder harness. The cutting

blade must be sharp. Never straighten or weld

damaged cutting tools.

Storage

1. Before storing the machine, perform full clean-

ing and maintenance. Remove the battery

cartridge. Empty the fuel tank. Attach the cover

to the cutting blade.

2. Store the machine in a dry and high or locked

location out of reach of children.

3. Do not prop the machine against something,

such as a wall. Otherwise it may fall suddenly

Additional safety instructions

1. To avoid accident, leave more than 15m (50

ft) distance between operators when two or

more operators work in one area. Also, arrange

a person to observe the distance between

operators. If someone or an animal enter the

working area, immediately stop the operation.

2. Only use the cutting tools that are marked with

a speed equal or higher than the speed marked

on the tool.

3. Be sure to remove the cover on the cutting

blade before operation.

Using a nylon cutting head

During operation, use the tip of the nylon cutting cord

for cut. As the nylon cutting cord is worn and shortened

with the cutting operation, the operator needs to feed it

manually. To feed the nylon cutting cord, tap the nylon

cutting head against the ground while rotating.

NOTE: If the nylon cutting cord does not feed out,

rewind it. Refer to the chapter “MAINTENANCE.”

endommagement du réservoir de carburant et une

fuite, ce qui peut provoquer un incendie.

Fonctionnement

1. N’utilisez la machine qu’avec une bonne visibi-

endroit sombre ou avec une faible visibilité peut

entraîner un accident imprévu.

2. Évitez d’utiliser la machine si vous avez des
