NOTE: Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission
control devices and system may be performed by any
non-road engine repair establishment, individual or
authorized service dealer.
In order to assure peak performance of your engine, inspection
of the engine exhaust port may be necessary after 50 hours of
operation. If you notice lost RPM, poor performance or general
lack of acceleration, this service may be required. If you feel
your engine is in need of this inspection, refer service to any
non-road engine repair establishment, individual or authorized
service dealer for repair. DO NOT attempt to perform this
process yourself as engine damage may result from
contaminants involved in the cleaning process for the port.
5. Push the trimmer line until it
lies flat against the cutting
head (Fig. 21). Make sure
the two lengths of cutting line
are of equal length. If they
are not, adjust until they are.
WARNING:
Always use the correct line length
when installing trimming line on the unit. If the
two lengths of cutting line are not of equal length,
the unit may develop a vibration.
