Before Operation
Chain Oil (Multi-Cutter with Pruner Attachment)
The chain and guide bar are lubricated by a centrifugal pump.
The oil discharge rate is controlled by the oil discharge adjustment screw on the top of the pruner head. Remove the oil tank filler cap fill the tank, then replace the cap.
Oil Tank Filler Cap
Oil Discharge
Adjustment Screw
IMPORTANT: Only use oil designed for lubricating chain saw chains and guide bars. Do not use waste oil. Never run the chain dry. In temperatures below freezing, check the chain oil viscosity
(pour point). If the oil is not rated for use below freezing, it may not provide adequate lubrication, resulting in damage to the oil pump, chain and guide bar.
IMPORTANT: When filling the oil tank for the first time, or when the tank is completely empty, wait approximately 60-90 seconds before starting the Pruner. This will give the oil time to flow from the tank to the pump. Otherwise, an air lock can occur which will prevent oil from moving through the pump. This will result in damage to the chain and guide bar.
Engine Oil and Fuel
1. Mix and pour fuel outdoors and where there are no sparks or flames.
2. Always shut off the engine before refueling. Never remove the Multi-Cutter fuel tank cap while the
engine is running or immediately after stopping the engine.
POTENTIAL HAZARD
WARNING
・Gasoline contains gasses that can build up pressure inside a fuel tank.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
・fuel can be sprayed on you when removing fuel tank cap.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
・Remove fuel tank cap slowly to avoid injury from fuel spray.
- 12 -
3. Always open the fuel tank cap slowly to release any possible
pressure inside the tank.
4. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Stop filling 10mm from the top of the
tank.
5. Tighten the fuel tank cap carefully but firmly after refilling.
6. Wipe up any spilled fuel before starting the engine.
7. Move the Multi-Cutter at least 3m (10ft.) away from the fueling
3m (10ft.)
Minimum
POTENTIAL HAZARD
DANGER
・In certain conditions gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
・A fire or explosion from gasoline can burn you, others and cause property damage.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
・Use a funnel and fill the fuel tank outdoors, in an open area, when the engine is cold.
Wipe up any gasoline that spills.
・Do not fill the fuel tank completely. Add gasoline to the fuel tank until the level is 10mm
below the bottom of the filler neck. This empty space in the tank allows gasoline to expand.
・Never smoke when handling gasoline, and stay away from an open flame with gasoline in an
approved container and keep it out of the reach of children.
・Do not mix fuel for more than two month use.
Recommended Oil Type
Only use a two-cycle engine oil formulated for use in high-performance, air-cooled two-cycle engines.
IMPORTANT: Do not use two-cycle oil intended for water cooled outboard motors. This type of two-cycle engine oil does not have the additives for air-cooled two-cycle engines and can cause engine damage.
Do not use automotive motor oil. This type of oil does not have the proper additives for air-cooled two-cycle engines and can cause engine damage.
Recommended Fuel Type
Use clean, unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 85 or higher. Use of unleaded gasoline results in fewer combustion chamber deposits and longer spark plug life. Use of premium grade fuel is not necessary or recommended.
IMPORTANT: Never use gasohol or alcohol blended fuels in this engine.
Mixing Gasoline and Oil
IMPORTANT: The engine used on this Trimmer/ Brushcutter is of a two-cycle design. The internal moving parts of the engine, i.e., crankshaft bearings, piston pin bearings and piston to cylinder wall contact surfaces, require oil mixed with the gasoline for lubrication.
Failure to add oil to the gasoline or failure to mix oil with the gasoline at the appropriate ratio will cause major engine damage which will void your warranty.
- 13 -
Fuel Mixture
The fuel: oil ratio is 25 parts gasoline to 1 part oil or 25:1.

IMPORTANT: Never mix gasoline and oil directly in the Multi-cutter fuel tank.
1. Always mix fuel and oil in a clean container approved for gasoline.
2. Mark the container to identify it as fuel mix for the Multi-cutter.
3. Use regular unleaded gasoline and fill the container with half the required amount of gasoline.
4. Pour the correct amount of oil into the container then add the remaining amount of gasoline.
5. Close the container tightly and shake it momentarily to evenly mix the oil and the gasoline before filling
the tank on the Multi-cutter.
6. When refilling the Multi-cutter fuel tank, clean around the fuel tank cap to stop dirt and debris from
entering the tank during cap removal.
7. Always shake the premix fuel container momentarily before filling the fuel tank.
8. Always use a spout or funnel when fueling to reduce fuel spillage.
9. Fill the tank only to within 10mm from the top of the tank. Avoid filling to the top of the tank filler neck.
