WARNING!

When the engine starts or is running– 

even at idle–the hedge trimmer cutter 

blade may move (oscillate). Keep 

your hands and your body away from 

the cutter assembly while starting the 

engine! 

Starting A Flooded Engine

1.  Disconnect the spark plug lead and use 

the spark plug wrench to remove the 

spark plug (turn counter clockwise to 

remove). 

2.  Slide the ignition switch to the “O” 

(STOP) position.

n

  If the spark plug is fouled or soaked 

with fuel, clean the plug as necessary.

3.  Open the choke (Figure 22) and fully 

depress the throttle lever with your left 

hand, then pull the starter handle rap-

idly with your right hand to clear excess 

fuel from the combustion chamber.

Starting the Engine 

5.  While holding the outer tube firmly 

with left hand. Use your other hand 

to slowly pull the recoil starter handle 

until resistance is felt, then pull quickly 

to start the engine.

3.  Press the primer bulb until fuel can be seen 

flowing in the transparent return tube.

Make sure 

the cutting 

attachment

is clear of 

obstructions!

IMPORTANT!

Engine ignition is controlled by a two 

position switch mounted on the throttle 

housing labeled, "I" for ON or START and 

"O" for OFF or STOP.

IMPORTANT! 

The primer system only pushes fuel 

through the carburetor. Repeatedly 

pressing the primer bulb will not flood the 

engine with fuel.

   CAUTION! 

Do not pull the recoil starter to the end 

of the rope travel. Pulling the recoil 

starter to the end of the rope travel can 

damage the starter.

ON

1.  Slide the ignition switch to the “ON” 

position. See Figure 18.

2.  Set the throttle lever to the “fast idle”;
 

a.

  Squeeze the throttle lever toward the 

handgrip on the shaft tube.

  b.

  Depress and hold the throttle lock 

button.

  c.

  While depressing the throttle lock 

button, release the throttle lever.        

See Figure 18.

Button

4.  Set the choke 

lever to the 

CLOSED posi-

tion if engine 

is cold.

Figure 20

Never start the engine from the  

operating position.

When the Engine Starts...

n

  After the engine starts, allow the engine 

to warm up at idle 2 or 3 minutes before 

operating the unit. 

n

  Advancing the throttle makes the cut-

ting attachment 

oscillate

 faster; releas-

ing the throttle permits the attachment 

to stop 

oscillat

ing. If the cutting attach-

ment continues to 

oscillate

 when the 

engine returns to idle, carburetor idle 

speed should be adjusted (see "Adjust-

ing Engine Idle" on the next page).

IMPORTANT!

If the engine fails to start after several 

attempts with the choke in the closed 

position, the engine may be flooded  

with fuel. If flooding is suspected,  

move the choke lever to the open position 

and repeatedly pull the recoil starter to 

remove excess fuel and start the engine. 

If the engine still fails to start, refer to the 

troubleshooting section of this manual.  

5.  When the engine starts, slowly move 

the choke lever to the "OPEN" position.  

See Figure 22. (If the engine stops after 

the initial start, close the choke and 

restart.)
