Using Blended Fuels
If you choose to use a blended fuel, or its use is unavoidable,
follow recommended precautions:
• Always use the fresh fuel mix explained in the operator's manual
• Always shake the fuel mix before fueling the unit
• Drain the tank and run the engine dry before storing the unit
NOTE: Dispose of the old fuel/oil mix in accordance to
Federal, State and Local regulations.
_, WARNING: Operate this unit only in a well-
ventilated outdoor area. Carbon monoxide exhaust
fumes can be lethal in a confined area.
_ ARNING: Avoid accidental starting. Make sure
,_ you are in the starting position when pulling the starter rope (Fig. 5). To avoid serious injury, the operator and
unit must be in a stable position while starting.
STARTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Mix gas with oil.
2. Fill the fuel tank with the fuel/oil mixture. See Oil and
Fuel Mixing Instructions.
NOTE: There is no need to turn the unit on. The On/Off
Stop Control is in the ON ( I) position at all times.
3. Fully press and release the primer bulb 10 times,
slowly. Some amount of fuel should be visible in the
primer bulb and fuel lines (Fig. 4). If you can't see fuel
in the bulb, press and release the bulb as many times
as it takes until you can see fuel in it.
4. Crouch in the starting position (Fig. 5). Do not
squeeze the throttle, and pull the starter rope with a
controlled and steady motion until the unit starts.
Wait 10 to 15 seconds, then squeeze the throttle to
control the cutting speed.
IF... the engine does not start, go back to step 3.
NOTE: The unit uses the Incredi-Pull
TM
starting system
with MAX FIRE IGNITION
TM
, which significantly
reduces the effort required to start the engine. You
must pull the starter rope out far enough to hear the
engine attempt to start. There is no need to pull the
rope briskly-- there is no harsh resistance when pulling.
Be aware that this starting method is vastly different
from (and much easier than) what you may be used to.
STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Release your hand from the throttle control. Allow the
engine to cool down by idling.
2. Press and hold On/Off Stop Control in the OFF (O) position
until engine comes to a complete stop (Fig. 3)
