CAUTION:

• Clean the fuel tank cap and its edges to prevent foreign bodies from entering the tank.
• Fill the fuel tank with a suitable funnel or a jerrycan with a suitable spout.
• For easy filling, place the machine in the operating position.
• Make sure that the machine remains in a stable position throughout this operation so that it does not fall over.

WARNING :

Petrol is extremely flammable and, in some circumstances, it is explosive.

Fill the fuel tank in a well ventilated area with the engine switched off.

Do not smoke and avoid any flames or sparks in the area where filling is performed and where the fuel is stored.

Do not overfill the fuel tank. (The fuel level must be below the filler neck).

After filling the tank, make sure that the tank cap is correctly fitted.

Take care not to spill fuel during the tank filling operation.

Petrol splashes or vapours could catch fire.

Make sure that any spilled petrol has evaporated and that vapours have dispersed before starting the engine.

Avoid direct contact of petrol with the skin and do not breathe the vapours.

KEEP FUEL OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

FUEL CONTAINING ALCOHOL

If you intend to use fuel with alcohol, ensure that its octane number is at least as high as that recommended by Honda (86). There are two types of fuel/alcohol mixtures: one contains ethanol and the other methanol.

Do not use mixtures containing more than 10% ethanol, or fuel containing methanol (methyl or wood alcohol), which do not contain cosolvents, or corrosion inhibitors for methanol.

In the case of a mixture containing methanol with addition of cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors, limit the proportion to 5% of methanol.

NOTE: The guarantee does not cover damage caused to the fuel system or engine performance problems resulting from the use of fuel containing alcohol. Honda does not give its approval to the use of fuels containing methyl alcohol since their suitability is not yet proven.

FILLING THE OIL TANK

! WARNING

The engine may be seriously damaged if it is run with insufficient oil.

Check the oil level on a flat horizontal surface with the engine switched off. The engine's service life may be shortened if non-detergent oil or 2-stroke engine oil is used.

SAFETY B3 C12

CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL

1. Place the engine in a horizontal position on a flat surface.

2. Remove the oil filler cap and check the oil level: oil must be level with the top of the oil tank neck [1].

3. If the level is too low, top up with the recommended oil to the top of the oil filler neck. Use Honda 4-stroke oil or an equivalent engine oil with high detergent properties, of prime quality and certified as complying with American automobile manufacturer standards for SG and SF classification.

! WARNING

The machine must always be resting on the ground when starting up. Make sure that it is stable and that the cutting attachment is not touching other objects or the ground.

BEFORE STARTING UP

Check that the guards are properly fitted and tightened and that you have the necessary protective equipment such as goggles, gloves, boots and ear-defenders.

• Do not release the recoil starter suddenly so that it strikes the engine. Return it gently to avoid damaging the starter mechanism.

NOTE: Always pull the recoil starter vigorously. If you pull too gently, sparks may not be produced on the spark plug and the engine will not start. Do not place your foot or knee on the transmission tube to hold the machine, as this could bend the tube, rendering the machine inoperable.

HOT START

The machine is considered to be "hot" if the engine has been running for more than 5 minutes in the 10 minutes before starting up.

The hot start procedure is the same as the cold start procedure except that the choke [1] is not needed. (The lever must be left in the low position).

[1]

NOTE: Should you have difficultie store-start a hot engine, follows this procedure:

1. Turn the engine to the OFF position (O).
2. Make sure that the choke lever is in OPEN position.
3. Keep the throttle control lever (throttle trigger) fully squeezed.
4. Pull the starter grip 3 to 5 times, and release the throttle control lever (throttle trigger).
5. Start the engine referring to the procédures described above.

CAUTION:

• Be sure to turn the engine switch to the OFF position (O).
• If this operation is executed with the engine switch at the ON position, the blade may rotate when the engine starts and a personal injury may result.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

[2] [2]

1. To stop the engine, press the Start/Stop button to engage the Stop position (O) [2].
2. This step can also be taken to stop the machine in case of emergency.

WARNING:

Note that the cutting attachment continues turning by inertia after the engine has been stopped.

OPERATION

Read the safety instructions

OPERATING POSITION

Once the machine has been started, attach it to the harness as already described in the section on preparation.

WARNING:

When handling the machine, take care to avoid striking any objects with the cutting attachment and keep the cutting attachment away from your body. Do not use the machine unless it is attached to the harness.

Hold the brush cutter firmly by both grips as shown. Always keep firm footing on both feet when working. Take appropriate breaks and vary your working position.

CAUTION:

- When using the machine, always allow the engine to idle between operations. If the machine is allowed to run at maximum speed with no load (no resistance on the cutting attachment) for long periods, the engine may be seriously damaged.

WITH NYLON LINE TYPE CUTTING HEAD

A4 C11

This attachment is designed to complete the job done with a lawnmower. It is especially handy and efficient for cutting grass along walls or fences, around trees or posts and on narrow or where a lawnmower cannot be used.

WARNING

Make sure the line cutting blade is properly mounted on the cutting attachment guard.

LINE LENGTH ADJUSTMENT

At maximum rotating speed, gently press the nylon line cutting head on the ground. The line is automatically extended. Repeat this operation until the optimal length is obtained.

When the engine is started and the cutting attachment starts rotating, the excess line will automatically be cut by the line cutter located on the guard.

CUTTING

The nylon line cuts grass cleanly without damaging tree bark and avoiding the violent impacts that would occur between a rigid cutting attachment and hard surfaces.

It is, however, recommended not to work too long in such areas in order to avoid damaging fragile, immature plant, in particular, and to avoid premature line wear.

Proceed in stages, when trimming, tilting the cutting attachment slightly.

For larger areas, hold the cutting attachment horizontal and sway it sideways from right to left and from left to right, alternately.

WITH 3-TOOTH AND 4-TOOTH BLADE

CAUTION:

- Do not use a blade larger than 255 mm in diameter.

Diagram illustrating a person using a sprinkler to measure vegetation, with labeled arrows and components.

CUTTING

The 3-tooth and 4-tooth grass-cutting blade is especially suitable for clearing dense and tangled weeds, bushes such as brambles or wild shrubs with a stem diameter of less than 2 cm.

To trim bushes, lower the cutting attachment from above while holding it horizontal so as to cut the branches in small pieces.

WARNING :

It is dangerous to use grass-cutting blades on very hard wood and/or plants with a large stem diameter. Kicking of the cutting attachment is difficult to control, and can seriously endanger the operator and cause serious damage to the equipment.

MAINTENANCE

REPLACING THE LINE

1. Press the lugs [2] located on either side of the head to open it.

1. Extract the reel and remove the rest of the nylon line.

2. Prepare 3 metres of 2.7 mm diameter line and fold it in half, lengthwise.

3. Place the middle of the line in the notch [5] in the reel and coil the wire by turning in the specified direction.

4. Secure the ends in the two opposite notches [3] (leaving an excess of 10 cm of line).

5. Reinstall the reel in its place and feed the lines through the two side holes [4].

6. Reinstall the cover.

[2] [3] [4]

Hand holding a mechanical component with two rods, labeled [5] (no text or symbols on the diagram itself)

CAUTION:

• Always use a line of the diameter recommended in the technical specifications.

- Poor results would be obtained if the line diameter is too large as this will result in an excessive load on the engine, so reducing its performance.

WARNING :

Never replace the nylon line with a line of a different material, such as steel wire.

To avoid severe personal injury, disconnect the spark plug cap to prevent accidental starting.

Wear heavy gloves to protect your hands when replacing the nylon head.

SHARPENING

3-TOOTH AND 4-TOOTH BLADES

Sharpening is essential to obtain good results. A slightly blunt cutting attachment can be sharpened with a file.

A grinding wheel should be used if the wear is more severe.

CAUTION:

- In all cases, the cutting attachment must be kept correctly balanced. If you do not have the required tools or if you think your cutting attachment may not be properly balanced, contact your authorized Honda dealer.

Remove the cutting attachment for sharpening and check that it is not cracked, out of true or bent.

If it is, replace it with a new one.

Both sides of 3-tooth and 4-tooth blades can be used.

When one side is worn, the cutting attachment should be turned over to use the cutting edges on the other side.

Only the bevelled edges of the teeth are to be sharpened.

It is important to keep their profile regular and to avoid incipient fractures.

All the teeth must be sharpened in the same way.

NOTE: If the machine vibrates abnormally after sharpening, this indicates that the blade is unbalanced. In this case, contact your authorized dealer Honda to have it checked.

CAUTION:

- Replace the blade when the wear limit shown in the illustrations below has been reached.

1. Install the oil filler cap [1].

CAUTION:

- Wash your hands with soap and water after handling used oil.

NOTE: Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible with the environnement. We suggest you take it in a sealed container to your local service station for reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash or pour it on the ground.

AIR CLEANER MAINTENANCE

The foam air filter element must be cleaned regularly to prevent impurities from entering the engine and causing premature wear. A dirty air filter will reduce engine power and increase fuel consumption.

CAUTION:

• Never run the engine without the air filter, as this could cause premature wear of the engine.
• Open the air filter cover [5] and remove the filter [6] from the filter housing [7].

[5] [6] [7]

1. Clean the filter with warm soapy water or in a nonflammable solvent and then leave to dry.
2. Dip the element in clean engine oil and squeeze out the excess oil.
3. Reinstall the foam filter element and the filter cover.

LUBRICATING THE TRANSMISSION HEAD

[8] [9]

1. Remove the bolt [9] from the transmission head.
2. Insert the nozzle of the tube of special lithium grease (available from your Honda dealer) and fill with grease while turning the cutting attachment so that the grease is properly distributed. Continue until grease comes out of the bolt hole [8].
3. Reinstall the bolt and tighten moderately.

TRANSPORT AND STORAGE

TRANSPORT

WARNING :

When transporting or carrying your brush cutter, the engine must always be stopped and the transport guard must be installed on the cutting attachment.

When carrying your brush cutter, hold it by the transmission tube in a balanced position. If it is to be transported in a vehicle, make sure that it is properly secured so it cannot move. It must be positioned so that there is no risk of fuel leakage.

STORAGE

If the machine is not to be used for more than two months, the following storage precautions should be taken:

• Drain the fuel tank and run the engine to empty the carburettor.
• Remove the spark plug and pour a few drops of oil (same quality as that used in the engine) into the cylinder.
• Gently pull the recoil starter to distribute the oil in the cylinder and on the piston. Then reinstall the spark plug.
• Clean the whole machine, paying special attention to plant residues accumulated around the cutting attachment, in the engine cooling fins and under the cowlings.
• Using a paint brush, apply a thin film of standard oil over the metal cutting attachments to prevent corrosion.
• Store the machine in its packaging, in a cool dry place.
• If the machine is to be stored in a vertical position, place it with the engine at the bottom so that it will not topple over.

FOLDING THE HANDLE (U TYPE ONLY)

For easier storage, the handle on your brushcutter can be swivelled round. Proceed as described below.

CAUTION:

• Turn the handle the clockwise only.
• Never swivel the handle through more than a quarter of a turn.
• Do not unscrew the knob [1] by more than 6 turns.

graph TD
    A["Component 1"] --> B["Component 2"]
    B --> C["Component 3"]
    C --> D["Component 4"]

USING THE AFTER A STORAGE PERIOD

1. Remove the spark plug, check that it is clean and that the electrode gap is correct. Pull the starter several times.
2. We recommend that the spark plug be screwed down as far as possible by hand until finger tight; then use a plug spanner to tighten it by an extra 1/8 or 1/4 turn.
3. Check the level and condition of the engine oil.
4. Fill the fuel tank and start the engine.

NOTE: If the cylinder has been coated with oil, the engine will smoke on start-up. This is normal.

FUEL STORAGE

NOTE:

• Ensure that you use containers or drums specifically designed for hydrocarbons [2]. This will prevent polluting the fuel through the dissolution of the container walls, which will lead to poor functioning of the engine.
• The warranty does not cover a blocked carburetor or valves jammed by old or polluted fuel.

- The quality of unleaded petrol alters very quickly (2 to 3 weeks in some cases). Do not use fuel more than 1 month old. Store the absolute minimum required for your monthly consumption.
