approximately 2cm of line. Release the line until it strikes the cut off knife. This may
require several taps.
NOTE. The cut off knife on the guard will automatically cut off any excess line. For
best results tap the head on hard soil or bare ground. Never bump the spool head
on concrete as it may crack the spool housing.
MANUAL LINE FEED.
•
Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug.
•
Push the bump knob in while pulling on both lines to manually advance the
line.
•
Release the bump knob and again pull on both lines to advance the line
further.
•
If the line still does not advance remove the spool and check the lay of the
line. It may be twisted or trapped inside the spool.
STARTING A FLOODED ENGINE
•
Disconnect the spark plug lead, and use the spark plug wrench to remove the
plug in a counterclockwise direction.
•
If the spark plug is fouled or is soaked with fuel, clean or replace the plug as
required.
•
Clean excess fuel form the combustion chamber by cranking the engine
several times while the spark is removed.
•
Install the spark plug and firmly tighten it with the spark plug wrench.
•
Try and start the line trimmer without the use of the choke.
•
If the engine still won’t start leave it for an hour and then try again.
