STEP by STEP OPERATION

STARTING

COLD STARTS

A. Place Supercut 2000NT on clear level

ground. B. Remove blade protector. C. Pour the fuel into the tank and fasten the

cap tightly. D. Pump fuel into the carburettor by pressing

the primer pump until fuel is visible in bulb. E. Set the throttle lever at the idling

(lowest) position. F. Ensure both Kill switch & Hold to run

control are in the “Run” position. G. Swing the choke located at the top of

the carburettor toward the engine to start. H. Turn off choke as engine begins to roughen.

You cannot set the Choke at the starting position unless the throttle lever is in the idle position.

WARM STARTS

You can restart the engine immediately after operation with the Choke “Off”.

STARTING

Put the machine on flat stable ground, and pull the zip cord with one hand and use the other to grip the Engine Stop Hold-to-run control and support the machine.

1. Pull the zip cord slowly at first and then as you feel the resistance pull quickly for

the rest of the action.

IMPORTANT

2. DO NOT pull the cord out completely. Do not let the zip cord go. Let it retract

slowly.

3. Ensure that the throttle lever remains at the idling position during warming up.

4. If you increase the throttle lever when the engines is not warm enough, the choke

will automatically set back at the operating position and it may stop the engine

5. Allow machine to warm up for 2 minutes before cutting

6. Increase engine speed before commencing cutting.

7. Reduce throttle to idle when not cutting.

8. When in position to begin cutting, engage the cutting blades by Operator A

gripping the Hold to Run Control on the throttle lever end. Always fully engage

the blades & only do this when the engine is running.

ACTIVATING THE CUTTING BLADES

9. To disengage the cutting blades, operator A should release the Hold to Run

Control on the throttle lever end.

STEP by STEP OPERATION

The Supercut 2000NT Nursery Trimmer is designed to be operated by three (3) trained persons.

WARNING

a) Once the Trimmer and its components have been inspected for safety and the

Collection Bag has been installed, the SuperCut 2000 NT is ready to be used.

b) Carefully inspect the area to be cut and remove any objects which may be

damaged or thrown up by the Trimmer.

c) Operator B should grip the Hold to Run control on the handle at the engine end

& pull the starter cord to start the engine.

d) Operator A should adjust the throttle to the engine speed that best suits the

type of plant being cut. Some experimentation with engine speed may be required to establish the most economical level for each plant type. Having the throttle fully open at the highest engine speed provides the best cut and collection method. However, high engine speed will consume more fuel and decrease engine life.

e) The handle at the engine end is provided with a sling type harness which

should be adjusted to fit over the operators shoulder to support the weight of the trimmer & reduce muscular strain.

f) Operator A can engage the blades (by gripping the Hold to Run control at the

non engine end) when ready to commence cutting.

NOTE

g) The Trimmer requires 3 operators. Operator B (on the

engine end) should proceed slightly behind operator A on the throttle lever end. This allows operator C to follow operator A & support the collection bag to prevent it dragging across the cut plants.

h) Both operators A & B control the cutting height - some

practice may be necessary to ensure a flat, even cut.

i) With the Trimmer raised to the correct height for the

plant, walk at an even pace down the row of plants to be cut.

CAUTION

j) The bag will become heavy with prunings & will require emptying when filled.

The ergonomic posture of each user and the weight of prunings have the potential to result in muscular strain. Nursery Supplies Australia P/L therefore recommend that the 3 users rotate positions every 10 minutes of operation, to reduce such risk.

k) Shut off the engine and remove cuttings from the Collection Bag as required. If

the Collection Bag becomes too heavy the Trimmer will be difficult and dangerous to operate.

IMPORTANT

l) If pruning larger or higher plants two or more cutting runs may be required.

Do not attempt to remove excessive amounts of foliage on the first pass and never cut stems greater than 7mm in diameter.

MAINTENANCE

SETTING AND ADJUSTMENT OF CUTTING BLADES

IMPORTANT

The fast, reciprocal movement of the blades can cause blades to lose their adjustment. If the quality of cutting is reduced, some adjustment of the blades may be necessary. Adjustments are made as follows:

• Whilst holding the screw (2) on the bottom of the blades, loosen nut (1) off completely. Use the special tool and screwdriver supplied.

• Re-tighten the nut fully and then turn back 1/2 to 3/4 turn so the blades will move freely.

• Repeat for all other nuts on the blades.

• Oil the blades after adjusting the nuts and bolts.

CHECK THE ADJUSTMENT OF BLADES

To check the adjustment of the nuts and bolts on the blades:

• Start the engine and engage the blades. Run the Trimmer at the highest possible speed for approximately one minute. Disengage the blades and turn off the engine.

• If the nuts on the cutting blades are warm to touch, adjustment and clearance is correct. If the nuts are hot to touch, they are too tight and need to be loosened 1/3 to 1/2 turn.

• Repeat steps 1 + 2 above.

ADJUSTMENT AND CLEANING OF BLOW-DUCT.

The Blow-duct will not require adjustment under normal conditions of use. The direction of the outlets on the frame is crucial to the way the cuttings are blown into the bag. The openings on the blower should remain free from blockages.

If the Blow-duct direction is not correct then optimal performance pick-up of cuttings will not occur.

1. Loosen off screws on the base of the duct and rotate duct back into the correct position.

2. Re-tighten screws.

CLEANING OF BLOWER

If performance of blow-duct is noticeably reduced, it could be due to a blockage or debris build up on the fan air intake.

1. With engine off, carefully clean the area on the fan cover of any dust or debris with a soft brush.

WARNING

2. Do not insert anything into the Air Intake when engine is running as the rotating parts may cause personal injury or result in damage to the machine.

MAINTENANCE

COOLING FINS

Inspect the engine cylinder cooling fins before each operation & remove any debris which may clog the fins. When cooling fins are clogged, the engine may overheat resulting in breakdown.

CLEANING OF AIR FILTER

A. Remove dust inside the air filter cover after every 25-hours of operation.

(more often in Dusty conditions). To open the air filter, press the hook to

detach the air filter cover. B. If the element is heavily soiled, clean it thoroughly with petrol and dry it well. C. Check internal surfaces of body & Carburettor intake throat & ensure no dust

or debris is present. Reinsert air filters D. If the element is deformed or damaged, replace it with new one. Refer to

Nursery Supplies Australia Pty Ltd or Authorised Agent for replacement

parts.

IMPORTANT

A clogged or damaged air-cleaner element may lead to the reduction of engine performance.

Do not operate the engine without element or with deformed or damaged element. This can damage the engine.

CARBURETTOR ADJUSTMENT

TENSION OF THE THROTTLE CABLE

One to two millimetres of clearance is appropriate with the throttle lever at the idle position. You can adjust the clearance by loosening or tightening the throttle cable adjustment nut located at the upper side of the carburettor.

To increase the idle rpm, turn the screw to the right, and to reduce, turn the screw to the left.

FUEL TANK AND FUEL FILTER

Inspect the inside of the fuel tank after every 25 hours operation. If dust or moisture is found, remove the tank from the machine and clean it thoroughly. Dry well and replace.

To clean the fuel filter, empty the fuel tank and then take out the fuel filter.

If the filter is clogged up, replace it with new one. Refer to Nursery Supplies Australia Pty Ltd or Authorised Agent for replacement.

FUEL TANK CAP

Inspect the air vent, and if it is clogged up, take the cap off and carefully dislodge dust using a soft wire. Take care to avoid contaminating fuel in tank.

IMPORTANT

Clogging of the fuel filter or the air vent can cause low power or sub-standard engine performance.

Do not operate the engine without the fuel filter. Sediment may enter the carburettor and may cause damage to the engine

PLANT HYGIENE

In order to reduce the risk of spreading disease, it is recommended that the cutting blades of the Supercut 2000NT Nursery Trimmer be sterilised after each row of plants, or between cutting of different species plants. The sterilising solution used for your pruning equipment should be sprayed on to the upper & lower blades, before moving on to the next group of plants.
