General Use - The Handy THMC-A Operators Manual & Parts Lists

ENGINE ADJUSTMENT
Your Multicutter Power Unit is fitted with a fuel mixture/idle screw. This can sometimes need
adjustment if the engine is running lumpy, cutting out or the attachments are rotating with the
throttle trigger released. Adjustment can assist with the running of the machine.

The screw is bronze, positioned below the Choke Lever and has a spring located behind the
screw head.

Using a small flat head screwdriver (not supplied), tighten the screw clock wise, finger tight.

Using the same flat head screwdriver, loosen the screw (anti-clockwise) 1¼ turns, to ensure the
machine is operating to its optimum level.

GENERAL USE

WARNING
Prior to using the Multicutter, ensure all hardware (bolts, screws & nuts) are securely tightened.

Always have a firm footing and use two hands.

Always position the Power Unit on your right side, with all attachments. Using it on the left
side will expose the user to the exhaust. The trigger handle should be positioned at waist
height. Hot surfaces can result in burns.

Operate the trigger with your right hand & hold the barrier handle with your left hand.

The trigger increases and decreases the power of the engine to the attachment, increasing the
revolution/reciprocation of the attachment.
