17CAUTION: The cutting tools mentioned below must only be resharpened by anauthorized facility. Manual resharpening will result in imbalances ofthe cutting tool causing vibrations and damage to the equipment.– cutter bladeAn expert resharpening and balancing service is provided by AuthorizedService Agents.NOTE: To increase the service life of the cutter blade it may be turned overonce, until both cutting edges have become blunt.RESHARPENING THE CUTTING TOOLADJUSTMENT OF LOW-SPEED ROTATION (IDLING)When it is necessary to adjust the low-speed rotation (idling), perform it by the carburetor adjusting screw.CHECKUP OF LOW-SPEED ROTATION– Set the low-speed rotation to 3,000 min-1.If it is necessary to change the rotation speed, regulate the adjusting screw(illustrated on the right), with Phillips screwdriver.– Turn the adjusting screw to the right, and the engine rotation will increase.Turn the adjusting screw to the left, and the engine rotation will drop.– The carburetor is generally adjusted before shipment. If it is necessary toreadjust it, please contact Authorized Service Agent.CarburetorAdjustingscrewNYLON CUTTING HEADThe nylon cutting head is a dual string trimmer head capable of both automaticand bump & feed mechanisms.The nylon cutting head will automatically feed out the proper length of nyloncord by the changes in centrifugal force caused by increasing or decreasingrpms. However, to cut soft grass more efficiently, bump the nylon cutting headagainst the ground to feed out extra cord as indicated under operation section.Operation– Increase the nylon cutting head speed to approx. 6,000 min-1.Low speed (under 4,800 min-1) is not suitable, the nylon cord will not feed outproperly at low speed.– The most effective cutting area is shown by the shaded area.If the nylon cord does not feed out automatically proceed as follows:1. Release the throttle lever to run the engine idle and then squeeze thethrottle lever fully. Repeat this procedure until the nylon cord feeds out tothe proper length.2. If the nylon cord is too short to feed out automatically with the aboveprocedure, bump the knob of the nylon cutting head against the ground tofeed out the nylon cord.3. If the nylon cord does not feed out with procedure 2, rewind/replace thenylon cord by following the procedures described under “Replacing thenylon cord.”Most effective cutting areaIdle speed Full speedKnobSTOPPING1) Release the throttle lever (2) fully, and when theengine rpm has lowered, set the I-O switch toSTOP the engine will now stop.2) Be aware that the cutting head may not stopimmediately and allow it to slow down fully.STOP (1)(2)STOP(1)(2)EM2650LHEM2650LHNEM2651LHEM2650UHEM2650UHNEM2651UH
