STARTING INSTRUCTIONS
,
,
iiii ii 6.
NOTE:
Mix gas with oil. Fill fuel tank with fuel/oil mixture.
See Oil and Fuel Mixing Instructions.
Make sure the On/Off Stop Control is in the ON [I]
position (Fig. 8).
Fully press and release the primer bulb 10 times,
slowly. Some amount of fuel should be visible in the
primer bulb and fuel lines (Fig. 9). If you can't see
fuel in the bulb, press and release the bulb as many
times as it takes before you can see fuel in it.
Push the blue EZ Fire
TM
Lever towards the primer
bulb until it clicks and locks into place (Fig. 9).
Lay the unit on the ground horizontally, with the ends
of the handles resting on the ground (Fig. 10).
Put your free hand on the fuel tank to stabilize the
unit. With your other hand, pull the starter rope out
with a smooth and steady pull until the engine
attempts to start. Repeat until the engine starts.
The unit uses the Incredi-Pull
TM
starting system
with MAX FIRE IGNITION
TM,
which significantly
reduces the effort required to start the engine. You
must pull the starter rope out far enough to hear
the engine attempt to start. There is no need to
pull the rope briskly-- there is no harsh resistance
when pulling. Be aware that this starting method is
vastly different from (and much easier than) what
you may be used to.
When the engine starts, squeeze the throttle control
for 15 to 30 seconds. This will warm up the unit. The
blue EZ Fire
TM
Lever will click off automatically
when you squeeze the throttle control.
.......................... IF... The engine does not start, go back to step 3.
IF,,, The engine stops while you are squeezing the
throttle, go back to step 4.
IF,,, The engine stops before you squeeze the throttle
control, hold the throttle control and pull the starter
rope until the trimmer starts.
NOTE: If you are having trouble starting the unit or are
operating in extreme temperatures (below 40° F,
above 90° F), refer to the Troubleshooting section.
STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Release your hand from the throttle control. Allow the
engine to cool down by idling.
