The quality of the cut is directly related to ground speed during cutting. Under most conditions cutting should be done in first or second gear. Third gear should be reserved for conditions where weeds and brush are thinned out or not very tall. If the quality of the cut is not satisfactory, shift into a lower gear. 1. Move shift lever to correct position (1, 2, 3 or Reverse) for desired gear. Gear Shift Lever 2. Press blade clutch handle down to engage blade. Allow blade to spin up to normal operating speed.

This is particularly useful for cutting grasses that tend to lay over when overgrown (i.e., Bermuda, Johnson, etc). When cutting brush and normal field grasses it is recommended that you operate the brush cutter at the standard (top) cutting height. 1. Shut engine off and wait for blade to stop completely. 2. Disconnect spark plug wire. 3. Remove bolts, nuts and washers (items 119, 103, 107, 141 and 117) from skid items (155, 156). To lower the cutting height, remount the skid with the hardware in lower holes on skid bracket. To raise the cutting height use the top holes on the skid. Repeat for the opposite side. Tighten the hardware securely. 4. Reconnect the spark plug wire. CLEARING A CLOGGED CUTTING DECK DISCONNECT spark plug wire before servicing unit. 1. Shut engine off and wait for blade to stop completely. 2. Disconnect spark plug wire. 3. Remove clog from cutting deck. WEAR durable gloves. Clog may contain sharp materials. 4. Reconnect spark plug wire. Part No 500264 14 F091506B BC2402 Series Brush Cutter Owner’s Manual l HANDLING and TRANSPORTING Using four people to lift unit is recommended. Lift holding the handles and front deck guard. Make sure equipment is properly secured before transporting. NEVER lift the machine while the engine is running. STORAGE DO NOT store engine in an enclosed or poorly ventilated area where fuel fumes may reach an open flame or spark from a furnace, water heater, clothes dryer or similar devices. DO NOT drain fuel in an enclosed or poorly ventilated area. DO NOT smoke when draining fuel. DO NOT remove gas cap while engine is running. DO NOT park equipment on a steep grade or slope. ALWAYS remove spark plug wire when servicing equipment to prevent accidental starting. ALWAYS keep hands and feet away from moving or rotating parts. ALWAYS store fuel in approved safety containers. If the equipment will not be used for 30 days or more, prepare as follows: 1. Make sure engine is cool. 2. Drain gasoline from carburetor and fuel tank to prevent gum deposits from forming. 3. Run engine until tank is empty and engine runs out of gas. Fuel stabilizer (such as Sta-Bil) is an acceptable alternative for minimizing the formation of gum deposits during storage. Add stabilizer to gasoline in storage container or fuel tank. Follow stabilizer manufacturer’s instructions to determine proper mix ratio. Run engine at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer to allow it to reach carburetor.
