1. The engine of the RedMax product is designed
to run on a mixed fuel which contains highly
flammable gasoline. Never store cans of fuel or
WARNING
5. For safe operation
refill the tank of the unit in any place where there
is a boiler, stove, wood fire, electrical sparks,
welding sparks, or any other source of heat or
fire which might ignite the fuel.
2. Never smoke while operating the unit or refilling
its fuel tank.
3. When refilling the tank, always turn off the
engine and allow it to cool down. Take a careful
look around to make sure that there are no
sparks or open flames anywhere nearby before
refueling.
4. Wipe spilled fuel completely using a dry rag if
any fuel spillage occurs during refueling.
5. After refueling, screw the fuel cap back tightly
onto the fuel tank and then carry the unit to a
spot 10feet (3m) or more away from where it
was refueled before turning on the engine.
■ WARNING CONSIDERING CUTTING BLADE
a. Diamond wheel use only. Do not use abrasive
wheels with this product.
b. Treat the wheel with special care. Never roll,
drop or bump the wheel.
c. Use proper wheel for the cutting material.
Improper wheels may shatter or break, exposing
the operator to serious injury or death.
d. Check the wheel for broken, loose, or damaged
parts before attaching it to the engine unit.
Repair or replace before using.
e. When replacing the blade, run the engine
without load in low speed for more than 3
minutes so as to check the unit for abnormal
noise or vibration before the actual cut.
f. Never do the zigzag cut, curve cut, diagonal cut
(without guide) or chape. Never use the side
surface of the wheel.
■ WARNING ON STARTING THE ENGINE
a. Check the condition and safety of working area
and cutting object.
b. Remove any obstacle from working area.

the other one’s presence and how to sign the
danger etc.
d. Fix the cutting object if it is unfixed.
e. Never operate the engine without wheel guard.
f. Adjust the wheel guard to deflect sparks, dust,
and material away from the operator and
flammable materials.
g. Inspect the entire unit for loose fasteners and
fuel leakage. Make sure that the blade is
properly installed and securely fastened.
h. The product is equipped with a centrifugal clutch
mechanism, so the wheel begins to rotate as
soon as the engine is started when the throttle is
in the start position. When starting the engine,
place the unit on firm ground or other solid
surface in an open area and hold it firmly in
place so as to ensure that neither the wheel
comes into contact with any obstacle when the
engine starts.
i. Never attempt to drop-start the engine.
j. Be sure the wheel does not turn while the engine
is idling. Adjust the carburetor if necessary.
■ OPERATION SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
a. Grip the handles firmly with both hands. Place
your feet slightly apart so that your weight is
distributed evenly across both legs, and always
be sure to maintain a steady, even posture while
working.
b. Keep all parts of your body away from rotating
wheel.
c. Never raise the engine speed above the
maximum spindle speed (3000 1/min(rpm)).
d. If the unit start to shake or vibrate, turn off the
engine and check the whole unit. Do not use it
until the trouble has been properly corrected.
e. Keep the wheel always sharp. While using the
unit, if the wheel won’t cut well caused by
clogging, set the teeth of the saw by cutting
concrete block, clayware or sandstone.
f. Avoid standing in a direct line with the cutting
wheel.
g. Never force to push off the wheel on the cutting
object.
h. Use only downward pressure on the saw, as
lateral pressure may cause the blade to brake
and shatter.

■ RECOMMENDED MIXING RATIO
GASOLINE 50:OIL 1
• Exhaust emission are controlled by the
fundamental engine parameters and
components(eq., carburation, ignition
timing and port timing) without
addition of any major hardware or the
introduction of an inert material during
combustion.
• These engines are certified to operate on
unleaded gasoline.
• Make sure to use gasoline with a
minimum octane number of 89 RON
(USA/Canada: 87AL)
• If you use a gasoline of a lower octane
value than prescribed, there is a danger
that the engine temperature may rise and
an engine problem such as piston seizing
may consequently occur.
• Unleaded gasoline is recommended to
reduce the contamination of the air for the
sake of your health and the environment.
• Poor quality gasolines or oils may damage
sealing rings, fuel lines or fuel tank of the
engine.
■ HOW TO MIX FUEL
Pay attention to agitation.
1. Measure out the quantities of gasoline
and oil to be mixed.
2. Put some of the gasoline into a clean,
approved fuel container.
3. Pour in all of the oil and agitate well.
4. Pour In the rest of gasoline and agitate
IMPORTANT
• Gasoline is very flammable. Avoid
smoking or bringing any flame or
sparks near fuel. Make sure to stop the
engine and allow it cool before
refueling the unit. Select outdoor bare
ground for fueling and move at least
3m (10ft) away from the fueling point
before starting the engine.
• The RedMax engines are lubricated by oil
specially formulated for air-cooled 2-cycle
gasoline engine use. If RedMax oil is not
available, use an anti-oxidant added
