What’s In The Box
You are now the proud owner of a powerful Petrol Grass
Strimmer Brush Cutter. With its 2-stroke engine it makes light
work of even the toughest of tasks. The strimmer is not only
extremely versatile, but very easy to operate and maintain. With
its twin line and 3 toothed cutting blade, the Trueshopping Petrol
Strimmer is ideal for professional clean-up jobs, including
clearing out tough weeds and bushes over a large surface area.
In addition, the Trueshopping Petrol Brush cutter has a very high
power to weight ratio and easily starts in all weathers. It also
boasts maximum efficiency, high torque and rapid acceleration.
The machine features an ergonomic harness, which spreads the
load, improving comfort and efficiency for the user, and a bikestyle handlebar that is angled relative to the shaft, to prevent an
uneven load being placed on the user's back. Please see our addons for this strimmer as you may want to add some useful
attachments to your order.

Fuelling
Fuelling. Always switch the engine off before
filling up. Do not smoke whilst fuelling.
The use of unleaded petrol is recommended for
environment protection reasons. Only use two-
stroke engine oil for air-cooled engines.
Ratio of mixture 25:1
Open the tank cap carefully so that any overpressure may be let
out and the fuel does not splash out.
High temperatures build up on the machine body when working
with the machine, therefore, leave the machine to cool down
before filling up the fuel, otherwise, the fuel could ignite
spontaneously and create a risk of burns.
Do not store or transport the fuel in the mixing container.
When replenishing the fuel, be careful not to overfill the tank. If
the fuel drips off, it should be removed immediately and the
machine cleaned. Safely dispose of any cloths that are used to
wipe up fuel. Change and then wash any clothes that fuel drips
onto.
www.TrueShopping.co.uk
Page: 34 of 69
Trueshopping
After filling up, check screw closure for the firm fit to prevent
loosening at work because of vibrations. Check that there is no
leakage on the tank cap and fuel lines. If there are leaks this
product should not be started. Never use a device with damaged
ignition cable and spark plug connector as there is a risk of
sparks.

Starting The Brush Cutter/Strimmer
Once you have assembled and fuelled the strimmer you are able
to start it. To do this you:
1. Turn the choke ON.
2. Switch on the engine using the switch located on right
handle.
3. Pump the rubber engine primer bulb 6 - 8 times until clear
fuel is flowing.
4. Ensuring engine is on firm ground, keep the engine firmly
held down with knee and one hand. Now pull the start
cord firmly.
5. Slowly feedback the starter handle to its original position.
6. Repeat above until engine has started.
7. Turn the choke OFF.
NOTE: Mastering the throttle is an art that is quickly learnt with
use. The “idling adjustment screw”, may need raising/lowering to
adjust the engine idling speed This is also something that is learnt
with usage.

All users must be at least 18 years of age.
Minors and those with infirmities should not
use the brush cutter/strimmer.
Wear appropriate protection. Wear safety
shoes with steel toes or rough sole. Wear
appropriate clothes that is tight fitting.
Wear goggles and ear protectors to protect
your face, hearing and eyes. Wear hard gloves
– gloves of leather give a good protection.
Vibrations from the machine make it difficult
to hold for long periods. You may prolong the
time of use by wearing suitable gloves and
taking regular breaks. Remember that available
time to use the power machine may get shorter
as a result of low outside temperature
or strong contact force with the machine while working.
Use the primer every time you start the
strimmer.
www.TrueShopping.co.uk
Page: 46 of 69
Trueshopping
Never work in closed or poorly ventilated areas.
After the engine is started, the machine will
produce poisonous flue gas. The gas may be
invisible and odourless. Contact with the
exhaust may cause burns.
Beware of poor working conditions. When
working in wet, snow or icy weather conditions
or on slopes or rough ground ensure that you
are able to remain stable and upright at all
times. Work in good lighting when operating
the Grass Strimmer/Brush Cutter. Do not
overestimate your abilities and always keep your balance when
working
Always be attentive. Watch what you are doing.
Use common sense. Do not use the Grass
Strimmer/Brush Cutter when tired or influenced
by alcohol, drugs or medicaments that may
affect your concentration or capability. Never
work alone. Always have someone close by, particularly if you
are due to work in remote areas.
www.TrueShopping.co.uk
Page: 47 of 69
Trueshopping
Kickback. When working with metal blades, a
kickback of the whole machine or a sudden pull
forwards may occur if fixed objects (trees,
branches, stones or the like) are hit. Such a
kickback occurs abruptly without advance
warning and may result in loss of control of the
machine and hazards to the operator and bystanders. There is a
particular hazard in badly visible and overgrown areas.
To keep the control in case of kickback:
Firmly hold the machine with both hands when working.
Make sure that you have a safe stand. Keep your feet
conveniently spread and always be alert to a possible
kickback.
Always turn the engine off prior to any
adjustment or maintenance of the machine.
The same applies to any works on the mowing
head.
www.TrueShopping.co.uk
Page: 48 of 69
Trueshopping
Protecting Others

feet. Do not let any unauthorised persons
approach the machine. While you are working,
observe any children very carefully and be
aware of their safety.
Brush cutter/Strimmer operation. Never work
with the cutting tool unprotected as there is a
danger of injury with thrown-off objects.
Similarly be careful when working in thick
shrubbery or grass as stones and other objects
may be thrown up.
The machine should not be used for other than
intended purposes. Any deviation may result in
injury to you or others.
In an emergency get qualified medical
assistance as quickly as possible. Apply pressure
to any cut. Protect the injured person from
more accidents and calm them down. Turn off
machine ONLY if safe to do so.
WARNING! Use of other accessories and parts that are NOT
expressly recommended for this brush cutter/strimmer may
result in injury to persons and damage to property.

done. E.g. avoid using small tools and
accessories for work that should be done with a
heavy tool. Use the tool only for the purposes it
was designed for.
Use only non metallic fibre in the strimmer
spool.
Make provision for the safe storage of the
Grass Strimmer/Brush Cutter. The machines,
when not in current use they should be kept in
a dry place that is locked where practical.

regular conditions of use. In severe conditions and longer
periods of workdays it is necessary to shorten the intervals as
appropriate.
Regularly check the function and quantity of the strimmer fibre
and the cutter blade.
Only authorised servicing centres may
undertake repair. Unprofessional action may
cause damage of the machine or put your safety
at risk.

Check the electrode gap.
The gap should be approx. 0.6 to 0.7 mm.
Clean the spark plug when it is contaminated.
Re-install the spark plug being careful not to over tighten
it.
Replace the spark plug with a similar make and model:
Every 100 hours or once in a year (whichever case comes

Adjusting the Strimmer Fibre
Warning! The thread spool still runs for a short
while after the engine has been turned off.
Keep your hands and feet away from the
rotation area. Wait until it comes to a dead stop
before adjusting the fibre.
When the strimmer fibre becomes too short due to wearing tap
the strimmer spool slightly on solid ground several times. The
thread is unlocked and extended due to centrifugal force and
then automatically cut to the required length.
Cleaning the Air Filter
Clean the air filter from dust and dirt on a regular basis,
approximately every 16 hours of use to prevent, starting
problems, loss of output and/or too high fuel consumption.

increase the filter performance. Wring out surplus oil and
put the filter into the case.
Re-insert the metal inlay (D) and filter (C).
Attach the cover (B); fasten the screw (A).
Do not puff/blow out dirt particles, otherwise there is a risk of
eye injury.
