Refueling
Stop the engine before refueling. Keep away
1.
from open flames and sparks. Never smoke
during refueling. Otherwise fire and/or explosion
may result.
2.
Refuel outdoors. Refueling in a closed room can
cause explosion of fuel vapor.
Avoid contact with fuel or engine oil. Do not
3.
inhale fuel vapor. If fuel or oil spills, wipe it off
from the machine and/or ground immediately.
If fuel spills on your clothes, change it immedi-
ately to prevent it from catching fire.
4.
After refueling, carefully tighten the fuel tank
cap and check for fuel leak. Move at least 3 m
(10 feet) away from the fueling source and site
before starting engine.
5.
Only transport and store fuel in approved con-
tainers. Keep children away from the stored
fuel.
Starting up the cultivator
1.
Before assembling or adjusting the machine,
switch off the motor and remove the spark
plug cap or the battery cartridge.
2.
Before handling the rotor blades, wear protec-
tive gloves.
3.
Wear the personal protective equipments
before starting the motor.
4.
Before starting the motor, inspect the machine
for damages, loose screws/nuts or improper
assembly. Check all control levers and switches
for easy action. Clean and dry the handles.
5.
Never attempt to start the motor if the machine
is damaged or not fully assembled with proper
guards, plates, or other safety protective
devices. Otherwise serious injury may result.
6.
Before starting the motor, carefully check that
the rotor blade is not touching the ground,
your body, and other objects. Starting the motor
with the rotor blade contacting with foreign object
can cause serious accident.
7.
Before starting the motor, make sure that there
is no person or animal in the work area.
8.
Adjust the shoulder harness and hand grip to
suit the operator's body size.
9.
Replace the rotor blades if they are cracked,
bent, or damaged. Damaged rotor blades may
shatter during operation and cause serious injury.
10. Start and operate the machine only outdoors
in a well ventilated area. Operation in a confined
or poorly ventilated area can result in death due to
suffocation or carbon monoxide poisoning.
11.
When starting the engine, place the machine
on firm ground and then maintain good bal-
ance and secure footing.
12. When pulling the starter knob of the engine,
hold the power unit firmly against the ground
by your left hand. Never step on the drive shaft
of the power unit.
13. If the rotor blades rotate at idle, stop the
engine and adjust the idle speed down.
Otherwise unintentional contact with moving rotor
blade may result in serious injury.
14. Stop the motor immediately if you notice any
trouble.
15. Follow the instruction manual of the power
unit for starting the motor.
Transportation
1.
Stop the motor during transportation.
Otherwise unintentional start-up may cause injury.
2.
Ensure safe position of the machine during car
transportation to avoid fuel leakage.
Lift the entire machine from the ground when
3.
carrying the machine. Dragging the machine
causes fuel tank damage and fuel leakage, result-
ing in fire.
4.
When transporting the equipment, carry it in a
horizontal position by holding the shaft. Keep
the hot muffler away from your body.
Operation
1.
During operation, keep bystanders or ani-
mals at least 5 m (17 ft) away from the culti-
vator. Stop the motor as soon as someone
approaches.
2.
In the event of an emergency, switch off the
motor immediately.
3.
If you feel any unusual condition (e.g. noise,
vibration) during operation, switch off the
motor. Do not use the machine until the cause
is recognized and solved.
4.
With the engine running only at idle, attach the
shoulder harness.
5.
During operation, use the shoulder harness.
Keep the machine on your right side firmly.

Hold the front handle with the left hand and the
rear grip with the right hand, no matter you are
right-hander or left-hander. Wrap your fingers
and thumbs around the handles.

hand. Loss of control may result in serious or
fatal injury. To reduce the risk of cut injuries, keep
your hands and feet away from the rotor blades.
When operating, do not raise the rotor blades
