OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS

FUEL AND REFUELING
HANDLING THE FUEL SAFELY
• Always handle fuel with care, it is highly
flammable.
• Always refuel outdoors where there are no
sparks and flames. Do not inhale fuel vapors.
• Do not let gasoline or oil come in contact
with your skin.
• Keep gasoline and oil away from the eyes. If
gasoline or oil comes in contact with the eyes,
wash them immediately with clean water. If
irritation is still present, see a doctor immedi-
ately.
• Clean up spilled fuel immediately.

MIXING THE FUEL

• This product is powered by a 2-cycle engine
and requires the mixing of gasoline and 2-cycle
oil. Mix unleaded gasoline and 2-cycle engine
oil in a clean container approved for gasoline.
• Do not use any type of pre-mixed gasoline/oil
from fuel service stations, this includes the pre-
mixed gasoline/oil intended for use in mopeds,
motorcycles, etc.
• Use high a quality 2-cycle self mixing oil for
air cooled engines. Do not use automotive oil
or 2-cycle outboard oil.
• Mix the oil into the gasoline with a 25:1 ratio.
• Mix the fuel thoroughly and also each time
before fueling.
• Mix in small quantities. Do not mix quanti-
ties larger than usable in a 30 day period. A
2-cycle oil containing a fuel stabilizer is recom-
mended.

FILLING THE TANK

1. Clean surface around fuel cap to prevent
contamination.
2. Loosen fuel cap slowly to release pressure
and to keep fuel from escaping around the
cap.
3. Carefully pour fuel mixture into the tank.
Avoid spillage.
4. Prior to replacing the fuel cap, clean and in-
spect the gasket.

5. Immediately replace fuel cap and hand
tighten. Wipe up any fuel spillage. Move 9 m
(30 ft.) away from refueling site before start-
ing engine.
NOTE: It is normal for smoke to be emitted
from a new engine during and after first use.
WARNING: Always shut off engine before
fueling. Never add fuel to a machine with a
running or hot engine. Move at least 9 m (30
ft.) from refueling site before starting engine.
Do not smoke near the engine!

OPERATING THE TRIMMER

WARNING: Always place the motor head to
your right side. If you place the trimmer motor
on your left side, you will be exposed to the
motor heat and muffler outlet, this can cause
posible serious injury.
Hold the trimmer with
the right hand on the
handle at the the right
and the left hand on
the left of the "by-
cicle" handle. Keep
a firm grip with both
hands while in opera-
tion. Trimmer should
be held at a comfort-
able position with the
rear handle about hip
height.
Always operate trimmer at full throttle. Cut tall
grass from the top down. This will prevent grass
from wrapping around the driveshaft housing
and string head which may cause damage from
overheating. If grass becomes wrapped around
the string head, STOP THE ENGINE, disconnect
the spark plug wire, and remove the grass. Pro-
longed cutting at partial throttle will result in
oil dripping from the muffler.
ADVANCING THE STRING
String advance is con-
trolled by tapping
string head on grass
while running engine
at full throttle.
1. Run engine at full
throttle.
2. Tap string head on ground to advance string.
String advances each time the head is tapped.
