3. Use regular unleaded gasoline and fill the
container with half the required amount of
gasoline.
4. Pour the correct amount of oil into the container
then add the remaining amount of gasoline.

tarily before filling the fuel tank.
8 Always use a spout or funnel when fueling to
reduce fuel spillage.
9 Fill the tank only to within 1/4-1/2 inch (6 mm-13

1. Fill the fuel tank as instructed in the Before
Operation section of this manual (page US-10).
2. Rest the Trimmer on the ground.
3. Make sure the cutting attachment is clear of any
broken glass, nails, wire, rocks or other debris.
4. Keep all bystanders, children and animals away

Cold Starting Procedure
This Trimmer is equipped with a fuel primer and a
choke system. To start a "cold" engine properly,
perform the following procedure:
1. Pump the primer bulb at the bottom of the carbu-
retor until fuel can be seen flowing through the
fuel return line to the fuel tank. (Flowing fuel
should be almost clear, not foamy or full of
bubbles.)
2. Move the choke lever to the closed (
and move the stop switch to the "ON" position.
