Definition of Blended Fuels
Today's fuels are often a blend of gasoline and oxygenates
such as ethanol, methanol or MTBE (ether). Alcohol-blended
fuel absorbs water. As little as 1% water in the fuel can make
fuel and oil separate or form acids when stored. Use fresh fuel
(less than 60 days old), when using alcohol-blended fuel.

Using Fuel Additives

NOTE: This unit is shipped
without oil. In order to avoid

RECOMMENDED FUEL TYPE
Old fuel is the primary reason for improper unit performance.
Be sure to use fresh, clean, unleaded gasoline.

Never add oil to the fuel

and allow it to
cool before
filling the
fuel tank. Do
not smoke while filling the tank. Keep sparks and
open flames at a distance from the area.

The use of fuel additives, such as STA-BIL® Gas Stabilizer or
an equivalent, will inhibit corrosion and minimize the formation
of gum deposits. Using a fuel additive can keep fuel from
forming harmful deposits in the carburetor for up to six (6)
months. Add 0.8 oz. (23 ml.) of fuel additive per gallon of fuel
according to the instructions on the container. NEVER add fuel
additives directly to the unit's gas tank.
FUELING THE UNIT
WARNING: Remove fuel cap slowly to avoid injury I
from fuel spray. Never operate the unit without the

HOLDING THE TRIMMER
WARNING:
Always wear eye, hearing, foot and
body protection to reduce the risk of injury when
operating this unit.
Before operating the unit, stand in
the operating position (Fig. 12).
Check for the following:
• The operator is wearing eye
protection and proper clothing
• With a slightly-bent right arm, the
operator's right hand is holding the
shaft grip
• The operator's left arm is straight,
the left hand holding the assist
handle
• The unit is at waist level
• The cutting attachment is parallel to
the ground and easily contacts the
grass without the need to bend over

Fig. 12

WARNING:
Do not remove or alter the line cutting
blade assembly. Excessive line length will make the
clutch overheat, This may lead to serious personal
injury or damage to the unit.
ADJUSTING

TRIMMING

LINE LENGTH

Some line breakage will occur from:
• Entanglement with foreign matter
• Normal line fatigue
• Attempting to cut thick, stalky weeds
• Forcing the line into objects such as walls or fence posts
TIPS FOR BEST TRIMMING RESULTS
• For best trimming results, operate unit at full throttle.
• Keep the cutting attachment parallel to the ground.
• Do not force the cutting attachment. Allow the tip of the line to do
the cutting, especially along walls. Cutting with more than the tip
will reduce cutting efficiency and may overload the engine.
• Cut grass over 8 inches (200 mm) by working from top to bottom
in small increments to avoid premature line wear or engine drag.
• Cutting from right to left improves the unit's cutting efficiency.
Clippings are thrown away from the operator.
• Slowly move the trimmer into and out of the cutting area at the
desired height. Move either in a forward-backward or side-toside motion. Cutting shorter lengths produces the best results.
• Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.
• The life of your cutting line is dependent upon proper
adherence of explained trimming techniques, what
vegetation is cut, and where vegetation is cut.
For example, the line will wear faster when trimming against a
foundation wall as opposed to trimming around a tree.
DECORATIVE TRIMMING

The Bump Head TM cutting attachment allows you to release
trimming line without stopping the engine. To release more line,
lightly tap the cutting attachment on the ground (Fig. 13) while
operating the trimmer at high speed.

Decorative trimming is
accomplished by removing all
vegetation around trees, posts,
fences and more.

NOTE: Always keep the trimming line fully extended. Line release
becomes more
difficult as the cutting
line becomes shorter.

Rotate the whole unit so that the
cutting attachment is at a 30 +
angle to the ground (Fig. 14).

Each time the head is
bumped, about 1 inch
(25.4 mm) of trimming
line is released. A blade
in the cutting attachment
shield will cut the line to
the proper length if
excess line is released.

.,_+

Fig. 13

For best results, tap the Bump Head TM on bare ground or hard
soil. If line release is attempted in tall grass, the engine may
stall. Always keep the trimming line fully extended. Line release
becomes more difficult as the cutting line becomes shorter.
NOTE: Do not rest the Bump Head
