Starting the Engine
N.B. Pull the starter handle straight out. If you pull at an angle the starter cord will rub on the sleeve and
wear out prematurely. Keep hold of the starting handle after pulling it and allow it to return slowly. Never re-
lease the starter handle completely at full length since it can become entangled and the backlash can break
something on the trimmer.
N.B. See the
Troubleshooting
section if the trimmer doesn’t start after several attempts.
Starting a cold engine
Cut the trimmer line to a length of 13 cm before starting to reduce the load while
the trimmer warms up.
1. Place the grass trimmer on a level surface.
2. Set the on/off switch to position
1.
3. Set the choke lever (17) to cold start mode (upwards).
4. Press the primer pump (15) 10 times.
5. Hold the upper handle firmly while simultaneously pressing and holding in the safety lock and throttle.
6. Pull the starter handle until you feel some resistance (approx. 100 mm) Pull the starter handle quickly
and smoothly until the engine starts or up to 4 times.
7. Set the choke lever to the open position (downwards) as soon as the engine starts.
