STARTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Mix fuel with oil. See Oil and Fuel Mixing Instructions .
2. Fill the fuel tank with fresh, clean fuel mix. Refer to Fueling the Unit .
NOTE: There is no need to turn the unit on. The On/Off Control is in the ON ( I )
position at all times (Fig. 6).
3. Fully press and release the primer bulb 10 times, slowly. Some amount of fuel
should be visible in the primer bulb and fuel lines (Fig. 7). If fuel can not be seen in
the bulb, press and release the bulb until fuel is visible.
4. Place the choke lever in Position 1 (Fig. 7).
5. Crouch in the starting position (Fig. 8). Press the throttle lock-out in and squeeze
the throttle control lever. Pull the starter rope 5 times.
6. Place the choke lever in Position 2 (Fig. 7)
7. Press the throttle lock-out in and squeeze the throttle control. Pull the starter rope
in a controlled motion 3 to 5 times to start engine.
8. Keep the throttle squeezed and allow the engine to warm up for 30 to 60 seconds.
9. Continue squeezing the throttle control, move the choke lever to Position 3 (Fig. 7)
and continue warming the engine for an additional 60 seconds. The unit may be
used during this time.
NOTE: Unit is properly warmed up when engine accelerates without hesitation.
IF... the engine hesitates, return the choke lever to Position 2 (Fig. 7) and
continue warm-up.
IF... the engine does not start, go back to step 3.
IF... the engine fails to start after a few attempts, place the choke lever in Position 3 and squeeze the throttle
control. Pull the starter rope out with a controlled and steady motion 3 to 8 times. The engine should start. If
not, repeat.
IF WARM... If the engine is already warm, go back to step 6.
STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Release the throttle control and allow the engine to cool down by idling.
2. Press and hold the On/Off Control switch in the OFF (O) position until the unit comes to a complete stop (Fig. 6).
If unavailable, use a good 2-cycle oil designed for air-cooled engines along with
a fuel additive, such as STA-BIL® Gas Stabilizer or an equivalent. 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 fuel tank.
Thoroughly mix the proper ratio of 2-cycle engine oil with unleaded fuel in a
separate fuel can. Use a 40:1 fuel/oil ratio. Do not mix them directly in the
engine fuel tank. See the table for specific gas and oil mixing ratios.
NOTE: One gallon (3.8 liters) of unleaded fuel mixed with one 3.2 oz. (95 ml)
bottle of 2-cycle oil makes a 40:1 fuel/oil ratio.
NOTE: Dispose of the old fuel/oil mix in accordance with federal, state and
local regulations.
FUELING THE UNIT
1. Remove the fuel cap.
2. Place the gas container’s spout into the fill hole on the fuel tank and fill the tank.
NOTE: Do not overfill the tank.
3. Wipe up any gasoline that may have spilled.
4. Reinstall the fuel cap.
5. Move the unit at least 30 ft. (9.1 m) from the fueling source and site before starting the engine.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
HOLDING THE UNIT
Before operating the unit, stand in the operating position (Fig. 9). Check for the
following:
• The operator is wearing eye protection and proper clothing
• With a slightly-bent right arm, the operator’s hand is holding the shaft grip
• The operator’s left arm is straight, the left hand holding the D-handle
• The unit is at waist level
• The cutting head is parallel to the ground and easily contacts the grass without
the need to bend over
ADJUSTING TRIMMING LINE LENGTH
The Bump Head™ cutting head allows the release of trimming line without stopping the engine. To release more line,
lightly tap the cutting head on the ground (Fig. 10) while operating the unit at high speed.
WARNING: Always wear eye, hearing, foot and body protection to reduce the risk of injury when operating
this unit.
OIL AND FUEL MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
Old and/or improperly mixed fuel are the main reasons for the unit not running properly. Be sure to use fresh, clean
unleaded fuel. Follow the instructions carefully for the proper fuel/oil mixture.
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. It forms acids when
stored. When using alcohol-blended fuel, use fresh fuel (less than 30 days old).
USING BLENDED FUELS
If choosing to use a blended fuel, or its use is unavoidable, follow recommended precautions:
• Always use the fresh fuel mix explained in the operator's manual
• Use the fuel additive STA-BIL® or an equivalent
• Drain the tank and run the engine dry before storing the unit
USING FUEL ADDITIVES
The bottle of 2-cycle oil contains a fuel additive which will help inhibit corrosion and minimize the formation of gum deposits.
It is recommended to use our 2-cycle oil with this unit.

CAUTION:
For proper engine operation and maximum reliability, pay strict attention to the oil and fuel
mixing instructions on the 2-cycle oil container. Using improperly mixed fuel can severely damage the engine.
WARNING:
Gasoline is extremely flammable. Ignited vapors may explode. Always stop the engine
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.
WARNING:
Remove fuel cap slowly to avoid injury from fuel spray. Never operate the unit without the
fuel cap securely in place.
WARNING:
Add fuel in a clean, level and well ventilated outdoor area. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
Avoid creating a source of ignition for spilled fuel. Do not start the engine until fuel vapors dissipate.
STARTING/STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
Avoid accidental starting. Make sure you are in the
starting position when pulling the starter rope (Fig. 8). To avoid serious
injury, the operator and unit must be in a stable position while starting.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE E85 FUEL IN THIS UNIT. It has been proven that fuel containing greater
than 10% ethanol will likely damage this engine and void the warranty.
WARNING:
Operate this unit in a well-ventilated outdoor area.
Carbon monoxide exhaust fumes can be lethal in a confined area.
WARNING:
Do not remove or alter the line cutting blade assembly. Excessive line length will cause
premature engine failure and / or unit damage.
