WARNING

○ Always use the harness (if so equipped) and wear the

proper attire and protective equipment when operating

the unit. (Fig. 26)

○ Keep others including children, animals, bystanders and

helpers outside the 15 m hazard zone. Stop the engine

immediately if you are approached. (Fig. 27)

○ When grass or vines wrap around attachment, stop

engine and attachment and remove them. Continuing

operation with grass or vines wrapped around the

attachment may result in damages such as early

abrasion of the clutch.

CAUTION

Use and points of caution will vary depending on the type

of cutting attachment. For safe use, make sure to follow

the instructions and guidelines provided with each type.

NOTE

○ Press the quick release button or pull emergency release

ﬂ ap (If so equipped) in the event of emergency. (Fig. 28)

○ Use in accordance with local laws and regulations.

(1) Using a semi-auto cutting head

○ Set the engine at high speed when using this attachment.

○ Cut grass from left to right. The cut grass will be

discharged away from the body, minimizing transfer to

your clothes. (Fig. 29)

○ With nylon cord, use about 2 cm of the end of the cord

to cut grass. Using the full length of the cord will reduce

rotation speed and make cutting diﬃ cult.

NOTE

Automatically feeds more nylon cutting line when it is

tapped at low rpm (not greater than 4500 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 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.

(2) Using a blade

○ Adjust engine speed according to the resistance of the

grass. For soft grass, use low speeds, For tough clumps

of grass, use high speeds.

○ Cut grass from right to left, using the left side of the blade

to cut. (Fig. 30)

○ Slightly tilting the blade to the left while cutting will pile

the cut grass to the left, making collection easy.

NOTE

Excessively increasing rotation speed may cause

increased blade wear, vibration and noise. It will also

result in increased fuel consumption.

WARNING

○ Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade contacts

a solid object in the critical area.

A dangerous reaction may occur causing the entire unit

and operator to be thrust violently. This reaction is called

blade thrust. As a result, the operator may lose control

of the unit which may cause serious or fatal injury. Blade

thrust is more likely to occur in areas where it is diﬃ cult

to see the material to be cut.

○ If cutting attachment should strike against stones or

other debris, stop the engine and make sure that the

attachment and related parts are undamaged.

Stopping (Fig. 31)

Decrease engine speed and run at an idle for a few minutes,

then turn oﬀ ignition switch (31).

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.

MAINTENANCE

MAINTENANCE, REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF THE

EMISSION CONTROL DEVICES AND SYSTEMS MAY

BE PERFORMED BY ANY NON-ROAD ENGINE REPAIR

ESTABLISHMENT OR INDIVIDUAL.

Carburetor adjustment (Fig. 32)

WARNING

○ The cutting attachment may be spinning during

carburetor adjustments.

○ Never start the engine without the complete clutch cover

and tube assembled! Otherwise the clutch can come

loose and cause personal injuries.

In the carburetor, fuel is mixed with air. When the engine is

test run at the factory, the carburetor is adjusted. A further

adjustment may be required, according to climate and

altitude. The carburetor has one adjustment possibility:

T = Idle speed adjustment screw.

Idle speed adjustment (T)

Check that the air ﬁ lter is clean. When the idle speed is

correct, the cutting attachment will not rotate. If adjustment

is required, close (clockwise) the T-screw, with the engine

running, until the cutting attachment starts to rotate. Open

(counter-clockwise) the screw until the cutting attachment

stops. You have reached the correct idle speed when the

engine runs smoothly in all positions well below the rpm

when the cutting attachment starts to rotate.

If the cutting attachment still rotates after idle speed

adjustment, contact Hitachi Authorized Service Centers.

NOTE

Standard Idle rpm is 2500 – 3500 min

-1

.

WARNING

When the engine is idling the cutting attachment must

under no circumstances rotate.

Changing the engine oil

Dirty engine oil will considerably reduce the service life of the

engine. Check and change the engine oil regularly.

CAUTION

○ To avoid the risk of burn injuries, allow the engine to cool

thoroughly before changing the engine oil.

○ To prevent breakdown, ensure that no sand or dirt gets

into the tank while refueling.

When to change the oil: When ﬁ rst using the unit, after

approximately 10 hours of operation or after 1 month,

whichever occurs earlier; subsequently, after every 50 hours

of operation or every 6 months, whichever occurs earlier.

Speciﬁ ed engine oil: Multigrade oil of classiﬁ cation SAE 10W-

30

Engine oil capacity: 80 ml

1. Turn oﬀ the ignition switch.

2. Check that the fuel cap is securely tightened.

3. Remove the oil cap, tilt the unit so that the oil tank

opening is on the underside and drain the engine oil into

a container. (Fig. 33)

4. When all the engine oil has been drained, place the unit

horizontally on a clean, ﬂ at surface.

5. Fill the oil tank with engine oil up to the mouth of the oil

tank opening. (Fig. 21)

6. Tighten the oil cap securely by hand.

NOTE

○ Do not dispose of waste engine oil with garbage or into

the ground.

Dispose of the oil according to the speciﬁ ed method in

your area.

If you are unsure, contact the retailer where the oil was

purchased.

○ Fill the oil tank with the speciﬁ ed amount of engine oil.

Too much or too little engine oil may result in engine

breakdown.

○ Engine oil deteriorates naturally even if unused.

Change the engine oil regularly.

Air ﬁ lter (Fig. 34)

The air ﬁ lter (35) must be cleaned from dust and dirt in order

to avoid:

○ Carburetor malfunctions.

○ Starting problems.

○ Engine power reduction.

○ Unnecessary wear on the engine parts.

○ Abnormal fuel consumption.

Clean the air ﬁ lter daily or more often if working in

exceptionally dusty areas.

Cleaning the air ﬁ lter

Remove the air ﬁ lter cover and the ﬁ lter (35). Rinse it in warm

soap suds. Check that the ﬁ lter is dry before reassembly. An

air ﬁ lter that has been used for some time cannot be cleaned

completely. Therefore, it must regularly be replaced with a

new one. A damaged ﬁ lter must always be replaced.

Fuel ﬁ lter (Fig. 35)

Check the fuel ﬁ lter occasionally for clogging as insuﬃ cient

fuel ﬂ ow could aﬀ ect engine speed.

Drain all fuel from fuel tank and pull fuel ﬁ lter (36) from tank.

Rinse it in warm water with detergent.

Rinse thoroughly until all traces of detergent are eliminated.

Squeeze, away excess water and allow element to air dry.

NOTE

If the fuel ﬁ lter (36) is hard due to excessive dirt buildup,

replace it.

Spark plug (Fig. 36)

The spark plug condition is inﬂ uenced by:

○ An incorrect carburetor setting.

○ A dirty air ﬁ lter.

○ Hard running conditions (such as cold weather).

○ Too much engine oil

These factors cause deposits on the spark plug electrodes,

which may result in malfunction and starting diﬃ culties. If

the engine is low on power, diﬃ cult to start or runs poorly at

idling speed, always check the spark plug ﬁ rst.

If the spark plug is dirty, clean it and check the electrode

gap. Re-adjust if necessary. The correct gap is 0.6 mm. The

spark plug should be replaced after about 100 operation

hours or earlier if the electrodes are badly eroded.

NOTE

In some areas, local law requires using a resistor spark

plug to suppress ignition signals. If this machine was

originally equipped with resistor spark plug, use same

type of spark plug for replacement.

Gear case (Fig. 37)

Check gear case or angle gear for grease level about every

50 hours of operation by removing the grease ﬁ ller plug on

the side of gear case.

If no grease can be seen on the ﬂ anks of the gears, ﬁ ll the

gear case with quality lithium based multipurpose grease up

to 3/4. Do not completely ﬁ ll the gear case.

CAUTION

○ Make sure to remove any dirt or grit when attaching the

plug to its original position.

○ Before attempting inspection or maintenance of the gear

case, make sure the case has cooled.
