Avoid Hot Surfaces
• During operation, the muffler or catalytic muffler and surrounding
cover may become extremely hot. Avoid contact during and immedi-
ately after operation. Always keep exhaust area clear of flammable
debris. Allow the engine and muffler to completely cool before
performing any maintenance activity.
Keep A Firm Grip
• Hold the front and rear handles with both hands with thumbs and
fingers tightly encircling the handles
Keep A Solid Stance
• Maintain footing and balance at all times. Do not stand on
slippery, uneven or unstable surfaces. Do not work in odd
positions or on ladders. Do not over reach.
• Never adjust blade angle of HCA while standing.
• Only adjust cutting angle with HCA resting flat on the ground, with
the switch in the "STOP" position.
• Adjust cutting angle by moving locking lever (A) up. Depress blade
indexing lever (B) and change blade angle with rear cutter assembly
handle. Release indexing lever into notch. Move locking lever down
to completely engage internal gears.
IMPORTANT
Lever (A) does not secure gearbox angle setting. Moving lever in
the down position reduces internal play in the gear box. Do not
over tighten nut (C) to insure gear box angle setting tightness
because damage to internal gears will occur. If the lever is loose or
very tight adjust nut (C) for snug 90° movement.
