 PROBLEM 

SOLUTION

Engine smokes. 

•      Check the oil level and adjust as needed.

 • 

     You may be operating the machine on too great an incline. 

 • 

     Check the air filter and clean or replace if needed.

 • 

     You may be using the wrong oil - too light for the 

temperature. Refer to your engine Owner’s Manual for 

detailed information.

 • 

     Clean the engine cooling fins and the carburetor housing if 

they are dirty.

 • 

     If the engine still smokes, visit our web site at www.

dirtyhandtools.com or call 1-877-487-8275 for assistance.

Engine lacks power or isn’t running smooth.

 

•       Check the throttle travel. The throttle lever should be in the 

most forward position (or RUN position when the engine is 

warm).

 • 

      Check for debris (hay seed, etc.) clogging the air filter intake 

and clean out as required.

 • 

      The engine’s blower housing, throttle linkage, and cooling 

fins should be free of debris. Clean them following the 

instructions in the engine Owner’s Manual.

 • 

      Check that the air filter is clean. If it is dirty, change it 

following the procedure in the engine Owner’s Manual.

 • 

      Remove the spark plug wire and dry the connection with a 

rag.

 • 

      The spark plug may be dirty or cracked, change it. If it’s oily, 

leave it out, hold a rag over the spark plug hole and pull the 

recoil cord several times to blow out any oil in the cylinder, 

then wipe off the spark plug and reinsert it.

 • 

      You should be using fresh, clean, unleaded gas. If it is old, 

change it. Use a fuel stabilizer if you keep gas longer than 

one month.

 • 

      Check that the engine has the right amount of clean oil. If it 

is dirty, change it following the procedure on page 

18.

 • 

      If your engine still lacks power, visit our web site at www.

dirtyhandtools.com or call 1-877-487-8275 for assistance.

Trim ball won’t spin or lacks power.

 

•        Check for proper alignment of the v-belt. Check it against 

Figure 20 in the “Replacing the Belt” section on page 

19

.

 • 

       The belt may be worn or frayed; if so, replace it.

 • 

       If the trim ball still will not spin, follow the procedure for 

“Adjusting the Belt Tension through the Trimmer Control 

Cable” on page 

18

.
