Detach the throttle cable at the carburetor by
loosening the two 10mm nuts on the thread-
ed end
Slide the cable out and down to unhook it
from the swivel. Separate the ground wire at
the wire connection, which is approximately
3" from the engine.
Loosen the screw at the very bottom of the
engine, just above where the handles are
attached to the tiller. Then just lift the
engine up.

. First, fasten the black ground wire from the
handle assembly to the ground screw. Use
the screw that is located on the bottom of the
engine, closest and to the right of the fuel tank.
This ground wire has an eyelet connection.
Therefore, when you want to remove the
engine from the trimmer, just separate the
wire connection. It is not necessary to
unscrew the ground screw. See illustration.
5.
Install the engine to the hedge trimmer
by first aligning the hex drive on the trimmer
gear housing with the hex socket in the
engine. Slide the engine over the 1” diameter
stem containing the hex drive on the gear
housing until it is seated all the way down on
the gear housing (see illustration below).
6.
Press shock absorbers into sockets on the
gear housing followed by the spacer tubes.
Secure handle and tubing support channels
with the 1/4-20 hex bolts and locking nuts
supplied. (See illustration at the top right)
7.
Plug the red wire from the engine into the
switch wire (rectangular flat connector) from
the handle assembly.
8.
Feed the throttle cable up between the fuel
tank and the carburetor. Locate the metal
“button” on the triangle. This is the swivel.
The large end of the throttle cable must be
inside the slot in this swivel. (See Picture 3.)
Separate the two nuts and washers and slide
them onto the engine. (See Picture 2.) Adjust
the nuts so the triangle touches the carburetor
case when you squeeze the trigger and hits the
idle screw when the trigger is released. (Picture
2.) Tighten the two nuts until they are snug
using a 10mm or an adjustable wrench.
Throttle movement should be smooth and
unobstructed. Align the engine and tighten the
mounting screw. Reinstall the filter and filter
cover.
