the engine is idling. If it does rotate, adjust the idle speed
according to the instructions in “Idle speed adjustment” in
the “MAINTENANCE” section. If the cutting attachment
still rotates after this adjustment, immediately stop the
engine and cease use, then bring the tool to the nearest
HiKOKI Authorized Service Center.
CAUTION
For the CG24ECP / CG27EC / CG27ECP, ensure that
the throttle outer end is in the holder.
(1) Starting the cold engine
1. Set ignition switch (27) to ON position. (Fig. 18)
2. Push priming bulb (28) about ten times so that fuel flows
into carburetor. (Fig. 19)
3. Set choke lever (30) to START position (closed) (A).
(Fig. 20)
4. Pull recoil starter briskly, taking care to keep the handle
in your grasp and not allowing it to snap back. (Fig. 21)
5. When you hear the engine want to start, return choke
lever to RUN position (open) (B). (Fig. 20)
6. Pull recoil starter briskly again. (Fig. 21)
NOTE
If engine does not start, repeat procedures from 2 to 5.
7. Then allow the engine about 2–3 minutes to warm up
before subjecting it to any load.
8. Check that the cutting attachment does not rotate when
the engine is idling.
(2) Starting the warm engine
Use only 1, 2, 6 and 8 of the starting procedure for a cold
engine.
If the engine does not start, use the same starting
procedure as for a cold engine.
Cutting
WARNING
○Always use the harness (if so equipped) and wear the
proper attire and protective equipment when operating
the unit. (Fig. 22)
○Keep others including children, animals, bystanders and
helpers outside the 15 m hazard zone. Stop the engine
immediately if you are approached. (Fig. 23)
○When grass or vines wrap around attachment, stop
engine and attachment and remove them. Continuing
operation with grass or vines wrapped around the
attachment may result in damages such as early
abrasion of the clutch.
CAUTION
Use and points of caution will vary depending on the type
of cutting attachment. For safe use, make sure to follow
the instructions and guidelines provided with each type.
NOTE
○Press the quick release button or pull emergency release
flap (If so equipped) in the event of emergency. (Fig. 24)
○Use in accordance with local laws and regulations.
CG24ECMP/CG27ECMP only
●Governor mechanism
The tool is equipped with a feature that keeps the engine
rotation speed consistent at the speed that is set. This
maintains a stable engine rotation speed even when the
burden applied to the tool bit becomes large, allowing for
steady operation.
However, if a burden larger than the tolerance is applied,
the engine rotation will decrease; in this case, adjust the
burden by decreasing the amount of material being cut.
The governor mechanism does not function when the
throttle is fully open.
(1) Using a semi-auto cutting head
○Set the engine at high speed when using this attachment.
○Cut grass from left to right. The cut grass will be
discharged away from the body, minimizing transfer to
your clothes. (Fig. 25)
○With nylon cord, use about 2 cm of the end of the cord
to cut grass. Using the full length of the cord will reduce
rotation speed and make cutting difficult.
NOTE
Automatically feeds more nylon cutting line when it is
tapped at low rpm (not greater than 4500 min-1).
WARNING
○This product is equipped with a line limiter that will
automatically cut any excess cord. When operating the
unit, do not remove the guard or line limiter.
As the resistance is greater for nylon cords as opposed
to blades, mishandling could increase engine load and
result in damage.
○Do not use with the engine set at low speeds. If the
engine speed is low, grass may wrap around the
attachment, causing the clutch to slip which could result
in clutch abrasion.
○With nylon cord cutters, always use over 15 cm of cord.
If the length of the cord is too short, rotation speed will
increase and may cause damage to the nylon cord
cutter. As the curved drive shaft tube model in particular
is not equipped with a deceleration mechanism, the
possibility of increased rotation speed for the cutting
attachment is high.
(2) Using a blade
○Adjust engine speed according to the resistance of the
grass. For soft grass, use low speeds, For tough clumps
of grass, use high speeds.
○Cut grass from right to left, using the left side of the blade
to cut. (Fig. 26)
○Slightly tilting the blade to the left while cutting will pile
the cut grass to the left, making collection easy.
NOTE
Excessively increasing rotation speed may cause
increased blade wear, vibration and noise. It will also
result in increased fuel consumption.
WARNING
○Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade contacts
a solid object in the critical area.
A dangerous reaction may occur causing the entire unit
and operator to be thrust violently. This reaction is called
blade thrust. As a result, the operator may lose control
of the unit which may cause serious or fatal injury. Blade
thrust is more likely to occur in areas where it is difficult
to see the material to be cut.
○If cutting attachment should strike against stones or
other debris, stop the engine and make sure that the
attachment and related parts are undamaged.
Stopping (Fig. 27)
Decrease engine speed and run at an idle for a few minutes,
then turn offignition switch (27).
WARNING
A cutting attachment can injure while it continues to spin
after the engine is stopped or power control is released.
When the unit is turned off, make sure the cutting
attachment has stopped before the unit is set down.
Throttle adjustment knob (Fig. 28)
The cutting blade speed setting for when the throttle trigger
is fully pulled can be adjusted.
To increase the speed setting, turn the throttle adjustment
knob (31) clockwise, and to decrease the speed setting, turn
the knob counter-clockwise.

or any objects.
MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE, REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF THE
EMISSION CONTROL DEVICES AND SYSTEMS MAY
BE PERFORMED BY ANY NON-ROAD ENGINE REPAIR
ESTABLISHMENT OR INDIVIDUAL.
Carburetor adjustment (Fig. 29)
The carburetor is a precision part that mixes air and fuel, and
it is designed to ensure high performance from the engine.
Before the tool is shipped from the factory, its carburetor is
adjusted during a test run. Only make adjustments if it is
necessary because of environmental conditions (the climate
or atmospheric pressure), the type of fuel, the type of two-
cycle oil, etc.
WARNING
○Because the carburetor is manufactured with a high
degree of precision, do not disassemble it.
○For this product, the only setting of the carburetor that
can be adjusted is the idle speed (T).
○Never start the engine without the complete clutch cover
and tube assembled! Otherwise the clutch can come
loose and cause personal injuries.
T = Idle speed adjustment screw.
Idle speed adjustment (T)
WARNING
○When the engine is stopped, do not excessively turn
the idle speed adjustment screw (T) in a clockwise
direction. Otherwise, when the engine starts, the cutting
attachment may unexpectedly rotate and cause an
injury.
○Do not adjust the idle speed adjustment screw (T) for
any reason other than to adjust the idling.
Run the engine while adjusting the idling.
(1) If the engine stops during idling
Start the engine, and slowly turn the idle speed
adjustment screw (T) in a clockwise direction until it is in
a position at which the engine rotates smoothly. At that
time, ensure that the cutting attachment is not spinning.
(2) If the cutting attachment rotates during idling
Slowly turn the idle speed adjustment screw (T) in a
counter-clockwise direction until it is in a position at
which the cutting attachment does not rotate. At that
time, ensure that the rotation of the engine is smooth.
WARNING
If the cutting attachment still rotates after adjustment of
the idle speed adjustment screw (T), immediately stop
the engine and cease use, then contact the nearest
HiKOKI Authorized Service Center.
Air filter (Fig. 30)
The air filter (32) must be cleaned from dust and dirt in order
to avoid:
○Carburetor malfunctions.
○Starting problems.
○Engine power reduction.
○Unnecessary wear on the engine parts.
○Abnormal fuel consumption.
Clean the air filter daily or more often if working in
exceptionally dusty areas.
Loosen the screw (33), then open the air filter cover and
remove the air filter (32). Rinse it in warm soap suds.
Check that the filter is dry before reassembly.
An air filter that has been used for some time cannot be
cleaned completely. Therefore, it must regularly be replaced
with a new one. A damaged filter must always be replaced.
Fuel filter (Fig. 31)
Remove the fuel filter (34) from the fuel tank, and replace it if
it is dirty.
NOTE
A blocked fuel filter (34) can prevent the supply of fuel and
cause a rotation malfunction of the engine.
Spark plug (Fig. 32)
The spark plug condition is influenced by:
○An incorrect carburetor setting.
○Wrong fuel mixture (too much oil in the gasoline)
○A dirty air filter.
○Hard running conditions (such as cold weather).
These factors cause deposits on the spark plug electrodes,
which may result in malfunction and starting difficulties. If
the engine is low on power, difficult to start or runs poorly at
idling speed, always check the spark plug first.
If the spark plug is dirty, clean it and check the electrode
gap. Re-adjust if necessary. The correct gap is 0.6 mm. The
spark plug should be replaced after about 100 operation
hours or earlier if the electrodes are badly eroded.
NOTE
In some areas, local law requires using a resistor spark
plug to suppress ignition signals. If this machine was
originally equipped with resistor spark plug, use same
type of spark plug for replacement.
Gear case (Fig. 33)
Check gear case or angle gear for grease level about every
50 hours of operation by removing the grease filler plug on
the side of gear case.
If no grease can be seen on the flanks of the gears, fill the
gear case with quality lithium based multipurpose grease up
to 3/4. Do not completely fill the gear case.
CAUTION
○Make sure to remove any dirt or grit when attaching the
plug to its original position.
○Before attempting inspection or maintenance of the gear
case, make sure the case has cooled.
Semi-auto cutting head
Nylon line replacement
1. Remove the case (35) by firmly pushing inward the

7. The initial cutting line length should be approx. 11–14 cm
and should be equal on both sides. (Fig. 39)
Blade (Fig. 40)
WARNING
Wear protective gloves when handling or performing
maintenance on the blade.
○Use a sharp blade. A dull blade is more likely to snag and
thrust.
Replace the fastening nut if it is damaged and hard to
tighten.
○When replacing blade, purchase one recommended by
HiKOKI, with a 25.4 mm (one inch) fitting hole.
○In the case of a 3 or 4 tooth blade (41), it can be used on
either side.
○Use the correct blade for the type of work.
○When replacing blades, use appropriate tools.
○When cutting edges become dull, re-sharpen or file
as shown in the illustration. Incorrect sharpening may
cause excessive vibration.
○Discard blades that are bent, warped, cracked, broken
or damaged in any way.
