WARNING  

  DANGER

During operation the muffler or catalytic muffler and surrounding cover become hot. Always keep exhaust area clear
of flammable debris during transportation or when storing, otherwise serious personal injury may result.

Long Term Storage (over 30 days)

Do not store your unit for a prolonged period of time (30 days or longer) without performing protective storage mainte-
nance which includes the following:

1. Store unit in a dry, dust free place, out of the reach of children.

WARNING  

  DANGER

Hedge Clipper blades are very sharp.  Touching them may lead to severe personal injury.  Avoid touching blades

whenever possible, and always wear gloves to protect hands.

WARNING  

  DANGER

Do not store in enclosure where fuel fumes may accumulate or reach an open flame or spark, otherwise serious
personal injury may result.

2. Place the stop switch in the “OFF” position.

3. Remove accumulation of grease, oil, dirt and debris

from exterior of unit.

4. Perform all periodic lubrication and services that are

required.

5. Apply clean oil to the entire length of the blade.  Be

certain the blade bolts are lubricated.

6. Install blade cover on blades.

7. Tighten all the screws and nuts.

8. Drain the fuel tank completely and pull the recoil

starter handle several times to remove fuel from the
carburetor.

clean, two-stroke engine oil into the cylinder through
the spark plug hole.

A. Place a clean cloth over the spark plug hole.
B. Pull the recoil starter handle 2-3 times to distribute

the oil inside the engine.

plug hole.  Pull the recoil handle slowly until the
piston reaches the top of its travel and leave it
there.

10. Install the spark plug (do not connect ignition cable).

IMPORTANT
Always store and transport hedge clippers in a stable, horizontal position. Support gear case and cutting blades to
prevent excessive flexing, which may cause damage to these components. Always install blade cover when trans-
porting or storing unit.
