WARNING

6. Oil / Fuel

NOTE

WARNING

❲15❳

Old fuel is usually the main reason for the unit not
running properly. Be sure to use fresh, clean,
unleaded fuel.

Alcohol-blended fuel absorbs moisture (water). As
little as 1% moisture in the fuel can cause it to
separate and form acids when stored. If this type of
fuel must be used, use fresh fuel (less than 60
days old).

■ DEFINITION OF BLENDED FUELS

Today's fuels are often a blend of gasoline and one
or more oxygenates such as ethanol, methanol or
MTBE (ether).

■ USE OF BLENDED FUELS

If you choose to use a blended fuel or its use is
unavoidable, the following precautions are
recommended.

1. Always use fresh unleaded fuel per your
operator's manual.

2. Use the special additive STA-BIL® or an
equivalent.

3. Always agitate the fuel mix before fueling the
unit.

4. Drain the tank and run the engine dry before
storing the unit.

■ USE OF FUEL ADDITIVES

The use of fuel additive, such as STA-BIL® Gas
Stabilizer or an equivalent, will inhibit corrosion and
minimize the formation of gum deposits. Add 0.8oz
(23ml) per gallon of fuel per instructions on
container. NEVER add fuel additives directly to the
unit's fuel tank. Using a fuel additive can keep fuel
fresh for up to six(6) months.

■ ADJUSTING THE MAXIMUM SPEED

• The screw at the throttle lever is for adjusting the
maximum speed. (OP6)

• Turning the screw crock-wise, the rpm becomes
down, the otherwise, the rpm becomes up.

(STANDARD OPERATION SPEED: 8000~9500
rpm)

Running engine with faster engine speed than
9500 rpm may damage the engine, slower
engine speed than 8000 rpm may cause of the
poor cutting ability.

(1) adjust screw (2) down (3) up

• Too large play causes wire out from the position.
Too small play causes throttle lever does not
stay at idling position.

■ USAGE

This machine does cutting not by a rotary cutter
like conventional trimmers but by a pair of special
blades, each upper blade and lower blade oscillate
opposite direction alternately within a limited angle
at a speed of approximately 1/30 of conventional
trimmers.

This unique mechanism brings you many benefits
like the following:

1. Since the blade does not cause grass chips and
pebbles to the thrown around, you may use less
care about your clothing or surroundings.

2. Should the blade hit a rigid object like stones,
trees or steel poles during operation, it does not
produce a bounce motion that can cause loss of
machine control.

3. Since the blade does not cause cut grass to
wrap around the neck, you need not to stop
operation to remove such wrappers.

What's more, since the whole circle of the blade is
available for cutting, you can move the cutting
head in all directions and cut grass growing on
such place difficult-to-get with conventional
trimmer.
You can even trim the waterside without splashing

■ CUTTING WORK

1. Always wear eye protection such as safety
goggles. Never lean over the rotating cutting
head. Rocks or other debris could be thrown
into eyes and face and cause serious
personal injury.

2. Keep the debris guard attached in place at
alltimes when the unit is operated.

• Adjust the front handle to the most comfortable
position.

• Start the engine and pull the throttle lever
gradually. The blades will start moving as the
engine speed goes up.

• To stop the blade motion, simply release the
throttle lever. The clutch will disengage and the
blades stop moving while the engine keeps
idling.

• Move the cutting head as sliding its bottom on
the ground. This will help you do the job with
less effort.

• Avoid running the engine at full throttle with no
load. Continuous no load full throttle operation
can cause damage to the engine and driveshaft.

• Operation at too slow engine speed can cause
abnormal vibration of the machine, resulting in
short life of driveshaft and clutch parts. If you felt
such vibration, use a higher speed range.

• Though the blades are made of harder steel
compared to conventional metal blades,
continuous cutting in soil will accelerate wear.

NOTE

8. Maintenance

To Sharpen Blade:

1. When the corners of cutter become rounded and
the cutting edges become dull, resharpen using
a small disk grinder, etc. (MA2)

2. When sharpening, offset the top and bottom
blade teeth by 1/8 inches (3.125mm), as shown
in the illustration. (MA3)

(1)Offset
(2)Top blade
(3)Bottom blade

Apply the grinder lightly and quickly. Pressing too
strongly or grinding for too long will generate heat
which can soften the temper of the blade and
accelerate wear.

3. The width of cutter decreases with repeated use
and resharpening. Replace with a new blade
when the width at the end becomes less than
5/16 in (7.75mm). (MA4)

(1)New blade
(2)Worn out blade

Using a worn blade can cause chipping of cutters,
resulting in a loss of operation time and shorter
service life of the machine.

To Rotate Blade By Hand: (MA4.5)

When resharpening an old blade or replacing with
a new blade, insert the accessory hex wrench into
the hex hole in the top of the crankcase and turn
strongly 2~3 times. This removes burrs and uneven
painting from the blade and makes starting easier.

■ OIL LEVEL

To prevent extensive engine wear and damage
to the unit, always maintain the proper oil level
in the crankcase. Never operate the unit with
the oil level below the bottom of the dipstick.

1. Make sure the engine is stopped and is cool so
the oil has had times to drain into the crankcase.

2. Place the unit on a flat, level surface to get a
proper oil level reading.

3. To keep dirt, grass clippings, etc., out of the

(3) Top of Dipstick

Be careful not to overfill the unit.

CHANGING THE OIL
For a new engine, change the oil after the first 10
hours of operation. Thereafter, change the oil after

every 50 hours or before storing the unit for an
extended period of time.
It is best to change the oil while the engine is still
warm. The oil will flow freely and carry away more
impurities.

Wear gloves to prevent injury when handing
the unit.

Change the oil as follow:

1. Remove the oil fill plug/dipstick.

2. Pour the oil into a container by tipping the unit to
a vertical position. Be sure to allow ample time
for complete drainage. (MA10)

3. Wipe up any oil residue on the unit and clean up
any oil that may have spilled. Dispose of the oil
according to Federal, State and local
regulations.

4. Refill the crankcase with 3.4 fluid oz (100ml) of
SAE30, SH oil.

5. Reinstall the oil fill plug/dipstick.

Make sure the O-ring is in place on the oil fill
plug/dipstick when checking and changing the oil.

■ VALVE TO ROCKER ARM CLEARANCE

After the first 20 hours and every 50 hours of
operation, inspect the valve to rocker arm
clearance using a flat feeler gauge.

This requires some disassembly of the engine. If
you feel unsure or unqualified to perform this, take
the unit to an authorized service center.

The engine must be cold when checking or
adjusting the valve clearance.

• This task should be performed inside, in a clean,
dust free area.

1. Loosen the four screws shown in (MA11 (2)).

2. Remove the three screws that secure the
engine cover. (MA11 (1), MA12 (1))

3. Disconnect the spark plug wire.

4. Remove the spark plug and then remove the
engine cover.

5. Remove the rocker arm cover and gasket.
(MA13)

(1)Rocker arm cover

6. While looking in the spark plug hole, pull the
starter rope slowly and bring the piston to the top
position. Check that both rocker arms should
move freely. If they do not, repeat this step. This
will be top of the compression stroke.

7. Using a flat feeler gauge, measure the clearance
between the valve stems and rocker arms.
(MA14)

(1) Feeler gauge (2) Rocker arm
(3) Adjusting nut (4) Gasket

The recommended clearance for both intake and
exhaust is .003 – .006in, (0.076 – 0.152mm).
The feeler gauge should side between the
rocker arm and valve stem with a slight amount
of resistance, without binding.

8. If the clearance is not within specification, adjust
as follows:
a. Turn the adjusting nut using a 5/16 inch

(8mm) wrench or nut driver.(MA14)
To increase the clearance, turn the adjusting
nut counterclockwise.
To decrease the clearance, turn the adjusting
nut clockwise.

b. Recheck both valve clearances and adjust as

necessary.

9. Reinstall the rocker arm cover using a new
gasket. Torque the screw to 37 – 43 in-lbs (4.1
– 4.7 N.m.).

10.Reinstall the engine cover. Check alignment of

the cover before tightening the screws.
Be sure to tighten the screws loosened in step

1.

11.Check the plug, see Replacing the Spark

Plug, and reinstall. Torque the spark plug to
100 – 110 in-lbs (11.3 – 12.3 N.m.).

Reinstall the spark plug wire.

■ FUEL FILTER

• When the engine runs short of fuel supply, check
the fuel cap and the fuel filter for blockage.
(MA15)

(1)Fuel filter

■ SPARK PLUG

• Starting failure and mis-firing are often caused
by a fouled spark plug. Clean the spark plug and
check that the plug gap is in the correct range.
For a replacement plug, use the correct type

specified by RedMax. (MA16)

Specified plug is Champion RDZ19H

1. Stop the engine and allow it to cool. Pull the wire
off of the spark plug.

2. Clean around the spark plug and remove it from
the cylinder head. Use a 5/8 inch (16mm) socket
to remove the plug.

3. Clean the electrode.

TIGHTENING TORQUE:

(11.3 – 12.3 N.m.)

■ MUFFLER

• Inspect periodically, the muffler for loose
fasteners, any damage or corrosion. If any sign
of exhaust leakage is found, stop using the
machine and have it repaired immediately.

• Note that failing to do so may result in the
engine catching on fire.

■ SPARK ARRESTER

• The muffler is equipped with a spark arrester to
prevent red hot carbon from flying out of the
exhaust outlet. Periodically inspect and clean as
necessary with a wire brush. In the State of
California it is required by law (Section 4442 of
the California Public Resources Code) to equip a
spark arrester when a gas powered tool is used
in any forest covered, brush covered, or grass
covered unimproved land. (MA17)

■ INTAKE AIR COOLING VENT

• Never touch the cylinder, muffler, or spark
plugs with your bare hands immediately after
stopping the engine. The engine can become
very hot when in operation, and doing so
could result in severe burns.

• When checking the machine to make sure
that it is okay before using it, check the area
around the muffler and remove any wood
chips or leaves which have attached
themselves to the reciprocator. Failing to do
so could cause the muffler to become
overheated, and that this in turn could cause
the engine to catch on fire. Always make
sure that the muffler is clean and free of
wood chips, leaves, and other waste before
use.

• Check the intake air cooling vent and the area
around the cylinder cooling fins after every 25
hours of use for blockage, and remove any
waste which has attached itself to the
reciprocator. Note that it is necessary to remove
the engine cover shown in (MA11,MA12) in
order to be able to view the upper part of the
cylinder.

• If waste gets stuck and causes blockage around
the intake air cooling vent or between the
cylinder fins, it may cause the engine to
overheat, and that in turn may cause mechanical
failure on the part of the reciprocator. (MA19)
