Do not let others use this device unless these persons have been fully instructed, have
read and understood the device manual and have been trained in the operation of the
device.
More extended use of the device exposes the user to vibrations, which can
lead to white finger disease (Raynaud's syndrome) or carpal tunnel
syndrome. This condition reduces the hand's ability to feel and regulate
temperatures, causes numbness and heat sensations and can lead to nerve and
circulatory damage and tissue death.
Not all factors leading to white finger disease are known. Still, cold weather, smoking
and other diseases affecting the blood vessels and blood circulation, as well as extensive
or prolonged exposure to shocks are mentioned as factors in the development of white
finger disease. To reduce the risk of white finger disease and carpal tunnel syndrome,
please note the following
● Wear gloves and keep your hands warm
● Take regular breaks
All the above precautions cannot exclude the risk of white finger disease or carpal tunnel
syndrome. Long-term and regular users are, therefore recommended to monitor the
condition of their hands and fingers closely. Consult a doctor immediately if any of the
above symptoms occur.
The operating noise of the tool may damage your hearing. Wear a
sound-proofing (Oropax or ear muffs) to protect it. Long-term and
regular users are recommended to check your hearing regularly. Be
especially vigilant and careful when wearing hearing protection as it limits your
ability to hear warnings (cries, alarms, etc.).
WARNING: Some noise exposure from this device cannot be avoided. Do not
work in noisy environments during approved and designated times. If necessary,
observe rest periods and limit the working time to the absolute minimum. For your
protection and protection of persons in the vicinity, wear suitable hearing protection.

8. Fuels
FUEL AND 2-STROKE OIL
Use unleaded gasoline with 2-stroke engine oil in a 40:1 ratio. During the first few
operations, a mixing ratio of 25:1 can be selected in order to lubricate all device parts
optimally initially.
WARNING: Never use pure gasoline in your device. This will cause permanent
engine damage and voids the manufacturer's warranty for this product. Never use a fuel
mixture that has been stored for more than 90 days.
WARNING: It must be a first-class oil for 2-stroke air-cooled devices.
We recommend the FUXTEC two-stroke oil ''MADE IN GERMANY''.
FUEL MIXTURE
Mix fuel with 2-stroke oil in a particular container. Please note the mixture table on the
following page for the correct ratio of gasoline to oil. Shake the tank to ensure complete
mixing.
WARNING: Lack of lubrication excludes the liability of the device manufacturer.
Gasoline and oil must be mixed in a 40:1 ratio.
Gasoline
Two-stroke engine oil
(40:1) Gasoline

1 liter 0.025 liter 5 liter 0.125 liter
2 liter 0.050 liter 10 liter 0.250 liter

Recommended fuel
It is recommended to use unleaded gasoline with an octane number of 90 # or higher to
reduce carbon deposition in the combustion chamber. Do not use old or dirty gasoline.
Keep the fuel tank dust-free and avoid water getting into the tank. Sometimes overload
will cause misfiring, which is normal.
If the backfiring is heard under average load, we recommend replacing the gasoline. If
the misfire is still present afterwards, please contact an authorized workshop.
WARNING
 Gasoline is highly flammable and can cause an explosion in case of sparks
 Refuel only in well-ventilated rooms and let the engine cool down before filling.
Smoking and open fire, as well as any sparks, must be avoided during refuelling
 Do not overfill the tank (see figure max. filling level)
 After refuelling, check that the fuel filler cap is properly closed
 Avoid any spillage of gasoline
 Keep the device away from children
Gasoline with an ethanol content
The engine can be operated with E10 gasoline.
However, do not use gasoline with
a higher ethanol content than 10%.

9. Cold start of the device
WARNING
The cutting head rotates immediately when the engine is started.
1) Ensure a secure stand and a firm and level surface.
Slide the engine stop switch on the right handle to the position I
Push the switch to position 0 you have no ignition spark and the engine cannot be started
2) Move the choke lever upwards to "COLD START".
3) Press the carburettor pump about 8-10 times (until gasoline flows in the line)
4) Pull out the starter rope with a short-stroke until resistance is felt
(about 100mm). A continuous fast train will provide a vital spark and start the engine
5) Then set the choke lever to the "WARM START" position
6) Let the engine warm-up for a few minutes at idle

NOTE: If the device does not start after repeated attempts, refer to troubleshooting
chapters.
NOTE: Always pull the starter cord straight out. Pulling the starter at an angle will cause
the rope to rub against the eyelet. Pulling the starter at an angle can cause the starter
cord to fray or break. Always hold the starter handle firmly when the rope pulls back.
Never let the hoist be thrown back from the pulled-out position. This could damage the
starter unit.
10. Warm start of the device
1) Place the device on a firm and level surface.
2) Move the engine stop switch to position I
3) Slide the choke to the "WARM START" position
4) Pull out the starter rope with a short-stroke until resistance is felt
(about 100mm). A continuous fast train will provide a vital spark and start the engine
If the device does not start, please proceed again according to "Cold start of the device
11. Stopping the device
Unlock the throttle lever. Let the device return to idle. Push the engine stop switch on
the handle upwards until the device stops. If it does not stop, pull out the spark plug
connector in an emergency. Never leave the device unattended while it is running.
12. Trimming techniques
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Before running your device, read the notes in chapters 3 and 4 of this manual.
CAUTION
ALWAYS TRIM AT HIGH ENGINE SPEEDS. Do not let the device run slowly at the
beginning or in trim mode.
ALWAYS MAKE DISTANCE IN WORKING AREAS from cans, bottles, rocks, etc. Whirling
objects can cause serious injury to users or bystanders and damage the device. If an
object is accidentally knocked against, immediately turn OFF the DEVICE and check the
device. Never run the device with damaged or defective parts.
DO NOT use the device for any purpose other than trimming grass.

Original User Manual FUXTEC FX-FSR152_rev05

Never lift the nylon cutting head above knee height during operation.
Do not run the device on a slope if there is a chance of slipping or losing stability.
Always remember that the tip of the thread will cut. You will get better results if you do
not push into the cutting area. Let the device trim at its
own pace
Hold the device in such a way that the thread head does
not touch the ground and is inclined slightly 20 degrees
to the swing direction.
You can make your work easier by trimming from right
to left
THE NYLON THREAD
CAUTION: Remove grass deposits regularly to prevent overheating of the
drive axle. Grass deposits occur when fibres of the weed become entangled
around the shaft under the protective shield. That prevents the shaft from
cooling properly. Remove grass deposits with a screwdriver or similar tool only when the
device is switched off.
If the device is properly equipped with a protective shield and nylon cutting head, your
device will trim unsightly weeds and large diameter tall grass in areas along fences,
walls, land and around trees.
NOTE: Pay special attention when trimming on brick or stone walls, etc., which will cause
rapid weed wear.
TRIMMING MORE ACCURATELY
Swing the trimmer's nylon cutting head horizontally from side to side. Do not tilt the
nylon cutting head while working. For correct cutting height, trim in advance in a test
area. Keep nylon cutting head at the same level for even depth of cut.
