GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Unit will not start.
Incorrect starting procedures.
Follow correct starting procedures in user
manual.
ON/OFF switch in the “OFF” position.
Turn ON/OFF switch to the “ON” position.
Primer bulb not pressed 10 times.
Press primer bulb 10 times.
Throttle trigger not fully depressed when
starting.
Ensure that the throttle trigger is
depressed when starting.
Incorrect fuel/oil mix.
Ensure that the correct fuel/oil mix (25:1
mixture) is used. Too little oil will damage
the engine while too much oil will foul the
spark plug.
Dirty spark plug.
Check that the spark plug is clean and
properly fitted.
Not running smoothly.
Dirty air cleaner.
Check air cleaner is free and clear of
blockages.
Stale fuel.
Drain and use fresh fuel.
Trimming line will not feed.
No line in head.
Check to see that there is line in the head.
If not replace with 2.0mm trimming line.
Line has been wound incorrectly around
spool.
Ensure that the line has been wound
in the correct direction. Refer to the
“Replacing Trimming Line” section of this
user manual.
Incorrect size line used.
Ensure that only 2.0mm size line is used
in this machine.
Inner spool.
Check the inner spool for dirt, burs or
warping. Excessive heat build-ups can
cause damage to the inner spool. If spool
is damaged, replace inner spool.
Worn bump head.
If the bump knob has excessive wear it
indicates that the head is being rubbed
on the ground during operation or is being
“tapped” on a concrete surface. Both
these situations can contribute to line
feed, and other product problems. The
cutting head should be off the ground
at all times when cutting and the head
should only be “tapped” on a flat surface.
No drive to shaft.
Bump head incorrectly installed.
Ensure that the bump head is correctly
fitted.
Collars and spacers incorrect fitted
(Straight shaft units only).
Ensure that the collars and spacers are
correctly fitted.
The following basic troubleshooting checks can be easily carried out to determine whether or not the unit is running cor-
rectly. If the unit will not operate after these checks then the product should be taken to an Authorised Service Agent for
further inspection.
Ensure a small amount of fresh 2 stroke fuel (25:1 fuel:oil) is either in the tank or available for use during
troubleshooting.
