STARTING A WARM ENGINE
1. Move the choke lever to the HALF
CHOKE position.
2.
Pull starter rope with a controlled
and steady motion until engine
runs, but no more than 6 pulls.
3. Allow engine to run 15 seconds,
then move the choke lever to OFF
CHOKE and begin normal operation.
NOTE: If engine has not started, pull
starter rope 5 more pulls. If engine still
does not run, it is probably flooded.
STARTING
A FLOODED
ENGINE
Flooded engines can be started by
placing the choke lever in the OFF
CHOKE position; then, pull the rope to
clear the engine of excess fuel. This
could require pulling the starter handle
many times depending
on how badly
the unit is flooded.
If the unit still doesn't start, refer to
TROUBLESHOOTING TABLE or call
1-800-235-5878.
OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
To maximize operating efficiency, do
not run the engine for longer than 1
minute at a time at full throttle.
OPERATING
POSITION

yourle_to
yourright.
_/L WARNING:
Always wear eye
protection and hearing protection. Never
lean over the trimmer head. Rocks or
debris can ricochet or be thrown into
eyes and face and cause blindness or
other serious injury.
When operating
unit, stand as shown
and check for the following:
• Wear eye protection,
hearing protec-
tion and heavy clothing.
• Hold trigger handle with right hand
and assist handle with left hand.
• Hold unit so that engine is below
waist level.
• Cut only from your left to your right to
ensure debris is thrown away from
you. Without bending over, keep line
near and parallel to the ground and
not crowded into material being cut.
Do not run the engine at a higher speed
than necessary. The cutting line will cut
efficiently when the engine is run at less
than full throttle. At lower speeds, there
is less engine noise and vibration.
Always
release the throttle trigger and
allow the engine to return to idle
speed when not cutting.
HOW TO STOP YOUR UNIT
• Release the throttle trigger.
• Push and release the engine ON/
STOP switch.
LINE ADVANCE
IN BUMP FEED
TRIMMER
HEAD
The trimmer line will advance
approxi-
mately 2 inches (5 cm) each time the
bottom of the trimmer head is tapped
on the ground with the engine running
at full throttle.
The most efficient line length is the
maximum
length allowed by the line
limiter. Always keep the shield in place
when the tool is being operated.
To advance
line:
• Operate the engine at full throttle.
• Hold the trimmer head parallel to
and above the grassy
area.
• Tap the bottom of the trimmer head
lightly on the ground one time. Ap-
proximately
2 inches (5 cm) of line
will be advanced
with each tap.
Always tap the trimmer head on a
grassy area. Tapping on surfaces such
as concrete or asphalt can cause ex-
cessive wear to the trimmer head.
If the line is worn down to 2 inches (5
cm) or less, more than one tap will be
required to obtain the most efficient
line length.
