Cutting (Fig. 26, 27, 28)

○ When cutting, operate engine at over 6,500 rpm.

Extended time of use at low rpm may wear out

the clutch prematurely.

○ Cut grass from right to left.

○ Cut grass from left to right (only curve shaft

model).

○ 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.

○ Wear the harness as shown in the fi gure (if so

equipped). The blade turns counter-clockwise,

therefore, be advised to operate the unit from

right to left for eﬃ cient cutting. Keep onlookers

out of working area at least 50 ft (15 m).
