ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALL CUTTING ATTACHMENT SHIELD
WARNING:
To prevent serious personal injury,
never operate the trimmer without the cutting
attachment shield in place.
Use the following instructions if the cutting attachment shield on
your unit is not installed. Use only the instructions that apply to
the type of shaft and shield that your unit is equipped with.

1. Place the cutting attachment shield onto the shaft housing.
Be sure the guard mounting bracket slides into the slot on
the edge of the cutting shield. Rotate the shield into place,
counterclockwise. The holes in the guard mounting bracket
and cutting attachment shield will line up (Fig. 1).
2. From inside the cutting attachment shield, push the square
bolt through the hole until the threaded end protrudes
through the guard mounting bracket (Fig. 2).
3. Put the washer on the bolt, then screw the wing nut onto
the bolt and tighten. Figure 3 shows the installation
process from underneath the unit.
CC4175
1. Slide the cutting attachment shield into the shield mount
on the cutting attachment. Align the screw holes in the
shield with the holes in the cutting attachment (Fig. 3).
2. Place a hex lock nut into one of the three recessed holes
on the top of the cutting attachment shield (Fig 4).
3. Install a screw into the hole from the bottom of the cutting
attachment shield and screw it into the nut installed in step
2 (Fig. 4). Do not tighten.

started, then tighten securely.

WARNING:
Oil Fill Plug
INJURY. Check and maintain the proper oil level in the crank case; it is important and cannot be
overemphasized. Check the oil before each use and change it as needed. See Changing the Oil.
RECOMMENDED OIL TYPE
Using the proper type and weight of oil in the
crankcase is extremely important. Check the oil before
each use and change the oil regularly. Failure to use the correct
oil, or using dirty oil, can cause premature engine wear and
failure. Use a high-quality SAE 30 weight oil of API (American
Primer
Bulb
Petroleum Institute) service class SF, SG, SH.
Adding Oil to Crankcase: Initial Use
NOTE: This unit is shipped without oil. In order to avoid
damage to the unit, put oil in the crankcase before
you attempt to start the unit.
Your unit is supplied with one 3.04 fluid oz. (90 ml.) bottle of SAE
30 SF, SG, SH oil (Fig. 6).
NOTE: Save the bottle of oil. It can be used to measure the
correct amount during future oil changes. See
Changing the Oil.
Fuel Cap
1. Unscrew the top of the bottle of oil and remove the paper
seal covering the opening. Replace the top. Next, cut the
tip off the funnel spout (Fig. 6).
2. Place the unit on a flat level surface (Fig. 7).
3. Remove the oil plug / dipstick from the crankcase (Fig. 8).
4. Pour the entire bottle of oil into the oil fill hole (Fig. 7).
NOTE: Never add oil to the fuel or fuel tank.
5. Wipe up any oil that may have spilled and reinstall the oil
fill plug / dipstick.
Check oil before each use and change as needed. Refer to
Changing the Oil.
RECOMMENDED FUEL TYPE
Old fuel is the primary reason for improper unit performance. Be
sure to use fresh, clean, unleaded gasoline.
NOTE: This is a four cycle engine. In order to avoid damage
to the unit, do not mix oil with gasoline.
Definition of Blended Fuels
Today's fuels are often a blend of gasoline and oxygenates such as ethanol, methanol or MTBE (ether).
Alcohol-blended fuel absorbs water. As little as 1% water in the fuel can make fuel and oil separate or
form acids when stored. Use fresh fuel (less than 60 days old), when using alcohol-blended fuel.
Using Blended Fuels
If you choose to use a blended fuel, or its use is unavoidable, follow recommended precautions:
• Always use fresh unleaded gasoline
• Use the fuel additive STA-BIL® or an equivalent
• Drain tank and run the engine dry before storing unit
