SAFETY
SRM-3020T
Heavy protective clothing can increase operator fatigue, which may lead to heat stroke. Schedule heavy work for early morning or late afternoon hours when temperatures are cooler.
The components of this machine generate an electromagnetic field during operation, which may interfere with some pacemakers. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury, persons with pacemakers should consult with their physician and the pacemaker manufacturer before operating this machine. In the absence of such information, ECHO does not recommend the use of this machine by anyone who has a pacemaker.
Extended Operation / Extreme Conditions
Prolonged exposure to cold and/or vibration may result in injury. Read and follow all safety and operation instructions to minimize risk of injury. Failure to follow instructions may result in painful wrist/hand/arm injuries.
It is believed that a condition called Raynaud’s Phenomenon, which affects the fingers of certain individuals, may be brought about by exposure to vibration and cold. Exposure to vibration and cold may cause tingling and burning sensations, followed by loss of color and numbness in the fingers.
The following precautions are strongly recommended, because the minimum exposure, which might trigger the ailment, is unknown.
• Keep your body warm, especially the head, neck, feet, ankles, hands, and wrists.
• Maintain good blood circulation by performing vigorous arm exercises during frequent work breaks, and also by not smoking.
• Limit the hours of operation. Try to fill each day with jobs where operating the unit or other hand-held power equipment is not required.
• If you experience discomfort, redness, and swelling of the fingers followed by whitening and loss of feeling, consult your physician before further exposing yourself to cold and vibration.

SAFETY
Repetitive Stress Injuries (RSI)
It is believed that overusing the muscles and tendons of the fingers, hands, arms, and shoulders may cause soreness, swelling, numbness, weakness, and extreme pain in those areas. Certain repetitive hand activities may put you at a high risk for developing a Repetitive Stress Injury (RSI). An extreme
RSI condition is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), which could occur when your wrist swells and squeezes a vital nerve that runs through the area.
Some believe that prolonged exposure to vibration may contribute to CTS.
CTS can cause severe pain for months or even years.
To reduce the risk of RSI/CTS, do the following:
• Avoid using your wrist in a bent, extended, or twisted position.
Instead try to maintain a straight wrist position. Also, when grasping, use your whole hand, not just the thumb and index finger.
• Take periodic breaks to minimize repetition and rest your hands.
• Reduce the speed and force with which you do the repetitive movement.
• Do exercises to strengthen the hand and arm muscles.
• Immediately stop using all power equipment and consult a doctor if you feel tingling, numbness, or pain in the fingers, hands, wrists, or arms. The sooner RSI/CTS is diagnosed, the more likely permanent nerve and muscle damage can be prevented.
All over head electrical conductors and communications wires can have electricity flow with high voltages. This unit is not insulated against electrical current. Never touch wires directly or indirectly, otherwise serious injury or death may result.

OPERATION
Engine exhaust IS HOT, and contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a poison gas. Breathing CO can cause unconsciousness, serious injury, or death. Exhaust can cause serious burns. ALWAYS position unit so that exhaust is directed away from your face and body.
Operation of this equipment may create sparks that can start fires around dry vegetation. This unit is equipped with a spark arrestor to prevent discharge of hot particles from the engine.
Metal cutters can also create sparks if the cutter strikes rocks, metal, or other hard objects. Contact local fire authorities for laws or regulations regarding fire prevention requirements.
Operation With Blades
Metal blades are very sharp and can cause severe injuries, even if engine is off and blades are not moving. Avoid contact with blades. Wear gloves to protect hands.
Blade use demands specific brush cutter configuration.
Operation without specified shield, barrier bar or U-handle, and harness can result in serious personal injury. Follow installation instructions.

*ANSI standards require brush cutters be equipped with a barrier bar or restrictive harness. U-Handle ensures a higher safety factor.
Do Not install blades on GT (Curved Shaft) model trimmers.
• Use only ECHO approved parts. Failure to use the correct parts can cause the blade to fly off. Seriously injury to the operator and / or bystanders can occur.
• Arbor diameter of upper blade plate must match arbor diameter of blades.
• For barrier bar or u-handle, follow instructions supplied with either blade conversion kit or U-handle kit, and verify blade is secured properly.
• A new cotter pin is required each time a blade is installed.
• Brushcutters over 7.5 kg (16.5 lbs.) dry weight (without fuel) require a double shoulder harness.
Note: The barrier bar is used to restrict rearward movement of the unit. The barrier bar is not a handle and should not be gripped when using or carrying the unit.
Blade Selection
The type of blade used MUST be matched to the type and size of material cut. An improper or dull blade can cause serious personal injury. Blades MUST be sharp. Dull blades increase the chance of kick-out and injury to yourself and bystanders. Never use an edging blade, circular saw blade, or any other type of unapproved blade.

OPERATION
SRM-3020T
Use Shoulder/Waist Harness
Use of the shoulder/waist harness is recommended for ALL Trimmer/ brushcutter use, not just blade operation. The shoulder/waist harness when used in a trimming operation with nylon line head suspends the trimmer from the operator's shoulder and reduces operator fatigue.
During blade operation, the same fatigue reduction is achieved. Safety to the operator is also enhanced by reducing the possibility of blade contact with the operator's hands and feet by restricting trimmer movement.
Make sure the warning sign on the back of the shoulder harness can be read easily.
Note: In case of Emergency, disconnect the trimmer from the harness.
Fuel
Diesel fuels and alternative fuels, such as E-15 (15% ethanol),
E -85 (85% ethanol) or any fuels not meeting ECHO requirements are NOT approved for use in ECHO 2-stroke gasoline engines. Use of diesel or alternative fuels may cause performance problems, loss of power, overheating, fuel vapor lock, and unintended machine operation, including, but not limited to, improper clutch engagement. Diesel or alternative fuels may also cause premature deterioration of fuel lines, gaskets, carburetors and other engine components.
Fuel Requirements
Gasoline
- Use 89 Octane [R+M/2] (mid grade or higher) gasoline known to be good quality. Gasoline may contain up to 10% Ethanol (grain alcohol) or
15% MTBE (methyl tertiary-butyl ether). Gasoline containing methanol
(wood alcohol) is
NOT
approved. Use of ECHO branded fuel is recommended to extend engine life in all air-cooled 2-stroke and 2/4-stroke hybrid engines.

OPERATION
Two Stroke Oil
- A two-stroke engine oil, such as ECHO branded 2-stroke oils, meeting ISO-L-EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and J.A.S.O. FD Standards must be used. ECHO branded 2-stroke oils meet these standards. Engine problems due to inadequate lubrication caused by failure to use an ISO-L-
EGD (ISO/CD 13738) and J.A.S.O. M345-FD certified oil will void the twostroke engine warranty.
2-Stroke engine oil contains petroleum distillates and other additives that may be harmful if swallowed. Heated oil can release vapors that can cause flash fire, or ignite with explosive force. Read and follow the oil manufacturer’s instructions, and observe all safety warnings and precautions for handling flammable liquids. For more detailed safety and first aid information, visit www.echo-usa.com for a copy of the Material
Safety Data Sheet.
◆
◆
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. CALL PHYSICIAN OR
A POISON CONTROL CENTER IMMEDIATELY.
WEAR SAFETY GLASSES when mixing or handling.
◆
◆
◆
AVOID repeated or prolonged skin contact.
AVOID inhaling oil mists or vapors.
ECHO branded 2-stroke oils may be mixed at 50:1 ratio for application in all ECHO engines sold in the past regardless of ratio specified in those manuals.
Handling Fuel
Fuel is VERY flammable. Use extreme care when mixing, storing or handling, or serious personal injury may result.
◆
Use an approved fuel container. Mark fuel containers as containing 2-stroke mixture fuel.
◆
◆
DO NOT smoke near fuel.
DO NOT allow flames or sparks near fuel.
◆
Fuel tanks/cans may be under pressure. Always loosen fuel caps slowly allowing pressure to equalize.

DO NOT fill fuel tanks indoors. ALWAYS fill fuel tanks outdoors over bare ground.
DO NOT overfill fuel tank. Wipe up spills immediately.
Securely tighten fuel tank cap and close fuel container after refueling.
Inspect for fuel leakage. If fuel leakage is found, do not start or operate unit until leakage is repaired.
Move at least 3 m (10 ft.) from refueling location before starting the engine.
Gasoline vapor is heavier than air, and can travel along the ground to nearby sources of ignition such as electrical motors, pilot lights, and hot or running engines. Vapors ignited by an ignition source can flash back to the fuel container, resulting in an explosion, fire, serious or fatal injuries, and extensive property damage.
Mixing Instructions
1.
Fill an approved fuel container with half of the required amount of gasoline.
2.
Add the proper amount of
2-stroke oil to gasoline.
3.

Applications
Nylon line heads may be used for trimming, scything, edging, and scalping of grass and light weeds
Trimming
Feed the spinning line into the material to be cut. Tilt the line head to one side to direct cutting debris away from you:
• Model SRM/PAS/SB (Straight shaft, counter-clockwise line head rotation)
- Tilt the cutting head down on the right side (muffler side) while cutting to direct cutting debris away from operator. Feed the line gradually into the material you wish to cut, avoiding contact with fences or other barriers
Scything
Scything - Swing the cutting head in a level arc, gradually feeding the line into the material being cut. Move forward with each arc to cut a swath. Width of cutting swath depends on arc. Use a larger arc for a wider swath, or a smaller arc for a narrow swath. Keep line head tilted to direct cutting debris forward or away from you.
Operating Techniques
• Debris flows in direction of lne head rotation. Change line head position to assure debris flow is directed away from operator.

OPERATION
• Keep cutting line away from wire fences to avoid entanglement.
• Operate trimmer only with cutting head below knee height.
Reaction Forces
Push or Pull - Kickback or Kickout
During normal use, operating a brushcutter with a circular metal blade can produce sudden strong reaction forces that are difficult to control. Strong reaction forces can cause a loss of balance or loss of control of the equipment, resulting in serious injury to operator and bystanders.
Understanding what causes these reactive forces may help you to avoid them, and can help you to maintain control of the equipment if you experience a sudden reaction during cutting. Reactive forces occur when the force being applied by the cutting teeth of a blade meet resistance, and some of the cutting force is directed back toward the equipment. The greater the cutting force or the amount of resistance, the greater the reactive force.
Push and Pull Forces
Push and pull forces are reactive forces that push the equipment directly toward the operator, or that pull the equipment directly away from the operator. These forces are the result of cutting on the sides of the blade. The direction of the force depends on the side of the blade being used, and the direction of blade rotation at the point of contact. The reactive force is in the opposite direction of blade rotation at the contact point, regardless of where the contact is being made.
These types of reactive forces are also called “Blade
Thrust.

ECHO Incorporated
29
OPERATION
SRM-3020T
As shown in the illustration, a blade turning counterclockwise will cause the equipment to pull away from the operator if the point of cutting resistance is on the left side of the blade. If the point of cutting resistance is on the right side of the blade, the equipment will push back toward the operator. In both examples, the reactive force is in the opposite direction of blade rotation at the contact point where resistance occurs.
Kickout
Kickout is also a reactive force caused by resistance to cutting, but the direction of blade thrust is lateral (to the left or right of the blade), instead of forward or back toward the operator.
In most cases, Push, Pull, and Kickout can be reduced or eliminated by:
• Using the correct blade for the cutting job
• Using properly sharpened blades
• Applying consistent, even force to the blade during the cut
• Avoiding obstacles and ground hazards
• Using extra care when cutting harder materials such as extremely dry brush, saplings, and small trees
• Cutting from a stable, secure position
Blade Cutting Problems
Binding - Blades may bind in the cut if dull or forced. Binding can damage blade, and result in blade breakage or injury from fragments and flying debris. If a blade binds in a cut, don’t try to get it out by applying “up and down” force to pry the cut open. Applying prying force to the blade can bend the blade, and result in blade failure and injury.
To free a blade that is bound in the cut, stop the engine, and support the trimmer or brushcutter to keep stress off the blade. Push the tree away from the entry point of the cut to open the cut, and pull the blade directly away from the cut in a straight-line motion. Use caution when releasing the tree to avoid being struck by spring-back or falling.

SRM-3020T
MAINTENANCE
Inspect the blade for damage before proceeding. Sharpen teeth if dull, or replace blade if cracked, bent, missing teeth, or otherwise damaged.
To prevent binding:
• Keep blades sharp
• Avoid excessive pressure during cuts
• Don’t exceed cutting capacity of blade
• Don’t use blades with damaged or missing cutting teeth
• Don’t rock blades in cut
MAINTENANCE
Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries.
Keep hands, clothing and loose objects away from all openings.
Always stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all moving parts have come to a complete stop before removing obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit. Allow unit to cool before performing service. Wear gloves to protect hands from sharp edges and hot surfaces.
Operating a poorly maintained unit can result in serious injuries to operator or bystanders. Always follow all maintenance instructions as written, otherwise serious personal injury may result.
Your unit is designed to provide many hours of trouble free service. Regular scheduled maintenance will help your unit achieve that goal. If you are unsure or are not equipped with the necessary tools, we recommend that you take your unit to a Servicing Dealer for maintenance. To help you decide whether you want to DO-IT-YOURSELF or have the Dealer do it, each maintenance task has been graded. If the task is not listed, see your Dealer for repairs.
The use of emission control components other than those specifically designed for this unit is a violation of federal law.

Cooling System
Level 2.
SRM-3020T
To maintain proper engine operating temperatures, cooling air must pass freely through the cylinder fin area. This flow of air carries combustion heat away from the engine.
Overheating and engine seizure can occur when:
• Air intakes are blocked, preventing cooling air from reaching the cylinder.
• Dust and grass build up on the outside of the cylinder. This build up insulates the engine and prevents the heat from leaving.
Removal of cooling passage blockages or cleaning of cooling fins is considered “Normal Maintenance.” Any failure attributed to lack of maintenance is not warranted.

MAINTENANCE
Sharpening Metal Blades
Several styles of metal blades are approved for use on the Brushcutter.
The 8-tooth blade can be sharpened during normal maintenance. The clearing blade and 80-tooth blade require professional service.
Before sharpening, CLOSELY inspect blade for cracks (look at the bottom of each tooth and the center mounting hole closely), missing teeth and bending. If ANY of these problems are discovered, replace the blade.
When sharpening a blade, always remove the same amount of materials from each tooth to maintain balance. A blade that is not balanced will cause unsafe handling due to vibration and can result in blade failure.
1.
File each tooth at a 30° angle a specific number of times, e.g., four strokes per tooth. Work your way around the blade until all teeth are sharp.
2.
DO NOT file the ‘gullet’ (radius) of the tooth with the flat file. The radius must remain. A sharp corner will lead to a crack and blade failure.
30º
30º
If an electric grinder is used, use care not to overheat teeth, do not allow tips/tooth to glow red or turn blue. DO NOT place blade in cooling water. This will change the temper of the blade and could result in blade failure.
