4. Add the correct amount of oil to the container, then add the remaining amount of gasoline.
5. Close the container and shake it momentarily to evenly mix the oil and gasoline before filling
the tank on the String Trimmer.
6. When refilling the fuel tank, clean around the fuel tank cap to prevent dirt and debris from
entering the tank during cap removal.
7. Always shake the premix fuel container momentarily before filling the fuel tank.
8. Always use a spout or funnel when fueling, to reduce spillage.
9. Fill the tank only to within 1/4 to 1/2 inch from the top of the tank.
Starting and Stopping
Before Starting the Engine
1.
Fill the fuel tank as instructed in the Before Operation section of this manual.
2. Rest the String Trimmer on the ground.
3.
Make sure that the cutting blades are clear of any broken glass, nails, wire, rocks or other debris.
4. Keep all bystanders, children and animals away from the working area.
Cold Starting the Engine
This String Trimmer is equipped with a fuel primer and a choke system.
To start a "cold" engine properly, perform the following operations:
1. Push and release the fuel primer bulb located on the
bottom of the carburetor until fuel may be seen flowing
through the fuel-return hose back into the fuel tank.
Flowing fuel should be almost clear, not foamy or
full of air bubbles.
2. Move the choke lever to the closed position and
set the engine stop switch to the "ON" position.
3. Lock the throttle trigger in the fast-idle start
position, then pull the starter grip. Grasping
the starter grip, slowly pull the starter cord
out until you feel resistance, then pull the cord
quickly and powerfully. Pull the starter grip
until the engine starts.
4.
After the engine has started, move the choke
lever to the open position. Then, squeeze and
release the throttle trigger to allow it to return to
the idle position.
