Wipe off any 8 Throttle control_ Starterhandle__ TRIMMING TIPS _ _ _ • Set the throttlecontrol in the fast position. If the wends or grass are fall and thick, operate the trimmer at a slower walking speed. • Frequently clean the undersideof the tdmmer to remove any grass build up. Keep top of engine around starter clear and clean of grass clippings and chaff. This will help engine air flow and extend engine life. • For best resultsand longer lastingline, use the ends of the line to do the cutting. This is easily done by moving slowly through very thickand heavy weeds. • Use the left side of tdmmerwhen trimming along fences, walls, fiowerbeds and other such objects. • If trimmer lines become too short,it will take longer to complete the job. ff trimmer lines are worn to less than haft their original length, they shouldbe replaced.

TR]MMERUNE For best results, replace trimmer lines when they have worn to half their original length. Use .155 inch diameter trimmer line. Cut new tdmmer line length to 18-314 inches. After new line is installed on trimmer head, check all lines so they do not vary more then one (1) inch in length. This is important to make sure the tdmmer head is balanced and will not vibrate abnormally. • iLWARNING: Use only the specified trimmer line. Do not use other materials such as wire, stdng, rope, etc. Wire can break off during trimming and become a dangerous missile that can cause sedous injury. TO REPLACE TRIMMER LINE 1. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and place wire where it cannot come in contact with spark plug. 2. Remove worn trimmer line from line carder plate. 3. Fold new, cut to length, trimmer line in half and insert folded end through carder plate opening to back side of retainer clip. 4. With folded end of line at back side of retainer clip, pull line outward until line is fully seated under the retainer clip. 5. Repeat on other side of carder plate. 6. Check all lines to be sure they are the same length. 7. Reconnect spark plug wire to spark plug. Carder plate opening Retainer dip ENGINE LUBRICATION Use only high quality detergent oil rated with API service classification SF-SJ. Select the oil's SAE viscosity grade according to your expected operating temperature. SAlE VISCOSITY GRADES NOTE: Although multi-viscosity oils (5W30, 10W30 etc.) improve starting in cold weather, these multi-viscosity oils will result in increased oil consumption when used above 32°F. Check your engine oil level more frequently to avoid possible engine damage from running low on oil. Change the oil after every 25 hours of operation or at least once a year if the unit is not used for 25 hours in one year. Check the crankcase oil level before starting the engine and after each five (5) hours of continuous use. Tighten oil plug securely each time you check the oil 10 leVel. TO CHANGE ENGINE OIL NOTE: Before tipping tdmmer to drain oil, drain fuel tank by running engine until fuel tank is empty. 1. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark plug and place wire where it cannot come in contact with spark plug. 2. Remove engine oil cap; lay aside on a clean surface. 3. Tip tdmmer on its side as shown and drain oil into a suitable container. Rock tdmmer back and forth to remove any oil trapped inside of engine. 4. Wipe off any spilled oil from trimmer and side of engine. 5. Fill engine with oll (See "ADD OIL" in the Operation section of this manual). 6. Replace engine oil cap. 7.

SPARK PLUG Replace spark plugs at the beginning of each mowing season or after every 100 hours of operation, whichever occurs first. Spark plug type and gap setting are shown in "PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS" in Maintenance section of this manual. CLEANING IMPORTANT: For best performance, keep trimmer free of built-up grass and trash. Clean the underside of your tdmmer after each use. A.CAUTtON: Disconnect spark plug wiru from spark plug and place wire where it cannot come in contact with the spark plug. • Turn trimmer on its side. Make sure air filter and carburetor are up. Clean the underside of your trimmer by scraping to remove build-up of grass and trash. • Clean engine often to keep trash from accumulating. A clogged engine runs hotter and shortens engine life. • Keep finished surfaces and wheels free of all gasoline, oil ,etc. • We do not recommend using a garder hose to clean trimmer unless the electrical system, muffler, air filter and carburetor are covered to keep water out. Water in engine can result in shortened engine life. 11 A, CAU'RON: Before performing any service and adjustments: 1. Stop engine. 2.
