Engine Idle Adjustment

The engine must return to idle speed

whenever the throttle lever is released.

Idle speed is adjustable, and must be set

low enough to permit the engine clutch

to disengage the cutting attachment

when the throttle is released.

Idle Speed Adjustment

WARNING!

The cutting attachment must

NEVER rotate at engine idle! If the

idle speed cannot be adjusted by the

proceedure described here, have

the unit inspected at an authorized

Shindaiwa dealer.

Place the unit on the ground, then

start the engine and allow it to idle for

2-3 minutes until warm.

If the attachment rotates when the

engine is at idle, reduce the idle speed

by turning the idle adjustment screw

counter-clockwise. See Figure 21.

NOTE:

Carburetor fuel mixture adjustments are

preset at factory on units with emission

control systems and cannot be serviced

in the eld.

If a tachometer is available, the

engine idle speed should be ﬁnal

adjusted to 3,000 (±250) min

-1

(rpm).

Checking Unit Condition

NEVER operate the unit with the cutting

attachment shield or other protective

devices (harness, ignition switch, blade

retention clip, etc.) removed!

Use only authorized Shindaiwa parts and

accessories with your Shindaiwa trimmer

or brushcutter. Do not make modiﬁca-

tions to the unit without the written

approval of Shindaiwa, Inc.

WARNING!

A cutting attachment shield

or other protective device is no

guarantee of protection against

thrown objects. YOU MUST ALWAYS

GUARD AGAINST FLYING DEBRIS!

ALWAYS make sure the cutting attach-

ment is properly installed and ﬁrmly

tightened before operation.

NEVER use a cracked or warped cutting

attachment: replace it with a serviceable one.

ALWAYS make sure the cutting attach-

ment ﬁts properly into the appropriate

cutter holder. If a properly installed

attachment vibrates, replace the attach-

ment with a new one and re-check.

ALWAYS stop the engine immediately

and check for damage if you strike a

foreign object or if the unit becomes

tangled. Do not operate with broken or

damaged equipment.

NEVER allow the engine to operate at

high RPM’s without a load. Doing so

could damage the engine.

NEVER operate a unit with worn or dam-

aged fasteners or attachment holders.

NEVER cut with dull blades. Doing so

will increase the risk of blade thrust and

may also damage your equipment.
