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 ex-
cess 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

OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
It is recommended
that the engine
not be
operated
for longer than 1 minute
at full
throttle.
OPERATING
POSITION
ALWAYS WEAR:
Long pants
Heavy shoes
Always tap the trimmer head on a grassy area,
Tapping on surfaces such as concrete
or as-
phalt can cause excessive 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 ob-
tain the most efficient line length.
WARNING:
Use only 0,080"
(2 mm)
diameter
line, Other sizes of line will not ad-
vance properly
and can cause serious injury,
Do not use other
materials
such
as wire,
string,
rope,
etc, Wire
can break off during
cutting and become a dangerous
missile that
can cause serious
injury,
CUTTING
METHODS
AI_,WARNING:
Use
mh_imum
speed
and do not crowd the line when cutting around
hard objects (rock, gravel, fence posts, etc,),
which can damage the trimmer head, become
entangled
in the Ih_e, or be thrown
causing
a
serious
hazard.
• The tip of the line does the cutting.
You will
achieve
the
best
performance
and
minimum
line wear by not crowding
the line
into the cutting area. The right and wrong
ways are shown below,

Cut from your left to your right.
A
41 WAR NIN G: Alwayswear
eye
protec-
tion.
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.
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. The cutting line will last longer and will
be tess likely to %reid" onto the spool.
Always release the throttie trigger and allow the
engine to return to idle speed when not cuffing.
To stop engine:
• Release
the throttle
trigger.
• Push
and hold the STOP
switch
in the
STOP position
until the engine stops.
TRIMMER
LINE
ADVANCE
The trimmer line will advance
approximately
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
iength allowed by the line limiter. Always keep
the shield in piace when the tool is being oper-
ated.
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. Approximately
2 inches
(5 cm) of line witl be advanced with each tap.

W_'ong
• The
_ine will
easily
remove
grass
and
weeds from around walls, fences, trees and
flower beds, but it also can cut the tender
bark of trees or shrubs and scar fences,
• For trimming
or scalping,
use less than full
throttle
to increase
line life and decrease
head wear, especially:
• During light duty cutting.
• Near objects around
which the line can
wrap such as small posts, trees or fence
wire.
• Formowingorsweeping,

a good clean job.
TRIMMING
- Hold the bottom of the trimmer
head about 3 inches (8 cm) above the ground
and at an angle. Allow only the tip of the line to
make contact,
Do not force trimmer
line into
work area.
