WARNING
Always shut off the engine before fueling. Never add fuel
to a machine with a running or hot engine. Move at least
9 m from refueling site before starting engine. Do not
smoke!
STARTING THE PRODUCT
Starting the product differs depending on whether the
engine is cold (not yet started today) or warm (has been
running in the last hour). Always refer to the Starting
Instructions label on the air filter when starting the engine.
Refer below for full instructions.
WARNING
Never start or run the engine inside a closed or poorly
ventilated area; breathing exhaust fumes can kill.
NOTE: Before starting the product, make sure the trimmer
is lying on a flat and bare surface.
Starting a cold engine:
1. Ensure the switch is in the “I” (ON) position.
2. Press the primer bulb for 10 times.
NOTE: After the 7th press, the fuel should be visible in
the primer bulb. If not, continue pressing until the fuel
is visible.
3. Set the choke lever to choke position.
4. Squeeze the throttle lock and throttle trigger completely
and pull the starter grip until the engine attempts to
start. Do not pull the starter grip more than 4 times.
NOTE: Keep the throttle lock and throttle trigger
squeezed completely through steps 4 to 7.
5. Set the choke lever to choke position.
6. Pull the starter grip until the engine starts. Do not pull
the starter grip for more than 6 times.
NOTE: If the engine does not start, return to choke
position and repeat the process beginning at step 2.
7. Allow the engine to run for 10 seconds, then set the
choke lever to position.
Starting a warm engine:
1. Ensure the switch is in the “I” (ON) position.
2. Press the primer bulb for 10 times.
3. Set the choke lever to position.
4. Pull the starter grip until the engine starts. Do not pull
the starter grip for more than 6 times.
NOTE: If the engine does not start, return step 2 under
“To start a cold engine”.
Stopping the engine:
Set the ignition switch to the “STOP” (OFF) position.
OPERATING THE TRIMMER
■ Hold the product with the right hand on the rear handle
and the left hand on the front handle.
■ Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation.
Trimmer should be held at a comfortable position with
the trigger handle about hip height.
■ Always operate trimmer at full throttle. Cut tall grass
from the top down. This will prevent grass from
wrapping around the shaft housing and bump head
which may cause damage from overheating. If grass
becomes wrapped around the bump head, stop the
engine, wait for all moving parts to stop, and remove
the grass. Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result
in lubricant dripping from the silencer.
■ Maintain your grip and balance on both feet. Position
yourself so that you will not be drawn off balance by the
kick-back reaction.
CUTTING TIPS
■ When cutting, make sure the cutter head is at a slight
angle while still approximately parallel to the ground
surface. In tall grass, cut from the top down to ensure
the moving parts do not get tangled with the long grass.
IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT
■ If the string still move at idle speed, contact an authorised
service centre for adjustment and discontinue use until
the repair is made.
CHECKING THE FUEL CAP
WARNING
A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard and must be replaced
immediately.
■ The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable filter and a
check valve. A clogged fuel filter causes poor engine
performance.
■ If performance improves when the fuel cap is loosened,
the valve may be faulty or the filter may be clogged.
Replace the fuel cap if necessary.
CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
A dirty air filter will cause starting difficulty, loss of
performance, and shorten the life span of the engine.
Check the air filter monthly. For best performance, replace
the air filter at least once a year.
■ Stop the engine.
■ Remove the air filter cover by pushing down the latch
with your thumb while gently pulling on the cover.
■ Remove the air filter.
■ Clean the foam filter element with warm soapy water.
■ Rinse and let dry.
NOTE: If the foam filter element is damaged, it should
be replaced.
■ Apply a light coat of engine oil to the foam filter element,
then squeeze it out.
■ Reinstall the air filter.
NOTE:
Make sure the filter is seated properly inside
the cover. Installing the filter incorrectly will allow dirt to
enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
■ Replace the air filter cover by inserting the slot at the
