What's the correct way to hold the machine?
Before you can actually start cutting, some initial preparations need to be made. It's important that your harness sits correctly so that the machine is perfectly balanced, for effortless, enjoyable working. We show you in the points below the things you need to bear in mind.
Loop handle versions
First, put on the harness and slip the hook through the eye on the machine. The hook should be roughly a hand's width below your right hip.
Always hold the brushcutter with both hands. Your left hand should be on the loop handle and your right hand on the shaft handle.
The cutting tool should always barely touch the ground.
