gas can damage
the fuel system
of an engine
while

storage.
To avoid
engine
problems,
the

should
be emptied
before

and let it
run until the fuel lines and carburetor

TRIMMING
TIPS
• Set the throttle
control
in the FAST posi-
tion.
If the weeds
or grass are tall and
thick,
operate
the trimmer
at a slower
walking
speed.
• Frequently
clean
the underside
of the
trimmer
to remove
any grass
build
up.
Keep top of engine
around
starter
clear
and clean
of grass
clippings
and chaff.
This will help engine
air flow and extend
engine
life.
• For best results
and longer
lasting
line, use the ends of the line to do the
cutting.
This is easily
done by moving
slowly
through
very thick
and heavy
weeds.
• Use the left side of trimmer
when
trim-
ming
along
fences,
walls,
flowerbeds
and other
such objects.
• If trimmer
lines become
too short,
it
will take longer
to complete
the job.
If
trimmer
lines are worn to less than
half
their
original
length,
they should
be
replaced.
See "TO REPLACE
TRIMMER
LINE"
in the Maintenance
section
of this
manual.
• Trimmer
head contact
with concrete,
as-
phalt
or other
hard surfaces
may cause
premature
wear
of the ball on bottom
of
trimmer
head.
