Recommendations (cont.):
5 .
Do not allow the trimmer head metal bowl to ride on
top of concrete or asphalt surfaces . This will cause
wear to the metal bowl . The bowl was designed to ride
on grass surfaces .
6 .
It is recommended that the line be replaced when it is
worn to approximately ½ the original length . This will
help maintain a high tip speed and result in a clean
cut . It is strongly recommended that the engine
cooling air screen be wiped clean at every string
change . This will prevent engine overheating .

Before Starting Engine:
Mixing Fuel / 2-Cycle Oil
WARNING
Do not smoke or allow smoking near fuel or the Trimmer . Mix and pour fuel outdoors WHERE THERE ARE NO SPARKS
OR FLAMES .
The 2-cycle engine on your Trimmer requires that fuel and
2-cycle engine oil be pre-mixed before adding to the
trimmer's fuel tank. To mix the fuel/ 2-cycle oil:
1 .
Use fresh unleaded gasoline with an octane rating
of 87 or higher . Do not use gasoline containing more
than 10% ethanol .
NOTICE
Use of gasoline containing more than 10% ethanol can
damage Trimmer . Use of non-ethanol gasoline is best .
We recommend the continuous use of a fuel additive/
stabilizer to counteract the effects of ethanol . These
additives also prolong the shelf life of gasoline .
2 .
Always use 2-cycle oil that meets or exceeds
JASO – FC specifications and is intended for mixing at
a fuel/oil ratio of 50:1
3 .
Do not use automotive or 2-cycle marine outboard oil .
These will damage your Trimmer's engine and void
the warranty .
4 .
Always mix the gasoline and 2-cycle oil in a container

Choose your line diameter according to the
following criteria:
a. 0.095 / 0.105 inch diameter: Best overall choice
for yard use . This diameter results in a good
quality of cut and moderate wear rate .
b. 0.155 diameter: Ability to cut larger diameter
stalks and has the best wear rate .
trimmer's fuel tank.
