2. Clean around the spark plug. Remove the spark plug from
the cylinder head by turning a 5/8-inch socket
counterclockwise.
3. Replace a cracked, fouled or dirty spark plug. Set the air gap at
0.025 in. (0.635 mm) using a feeler gauge (Fig. 31).
4. Install a correctly-gapped spark plug in the cylinder head.
Tighten by turning the 5/8-inch socket clockwise until snug.
If using a torque wrench torque to 110-120 in.•lb. (12.3-13.5
N•m). Do not over tighten.
CLEANING
Use a small brush to clean off the outside of the unit. Do not use
strong detergents. Household cleaners that contain aromatic oils
such as pine and lemon, and solvents such as kerosene, can damage
plastic housing or handle. Wipe off any moisture with a soft cloth.
STORAGE
• Never store a fueled unit where fumes may reach an open
flame or spark.
• Allow the engine to cool before storing.
• Store the unit locked up to prevent unauthorized use or
damage.
• Store the unit in a dry, well-ventilated area.
• Store the unit out of the reach of children.
LONG TERM STORAGE
If you plan on storing the unit for an extended time, use the
following storage procedure:
1.
Drain all fuel from the fuel tank into a container with the
same 2-cycle fuel mixture. Do not use fuel that has been
stored for more than 60 days. Dispose of the old fuel/oil
mix in accordance to Federal, State and Local regulations.
2. Start the engine and allow it to run until it stalls. This ensures that
all fuel has been drained from the carburetor.
3. Allow the engine to cool. Remove the spark plug and put 1
oz. (30 ml) of any high quality motor oil or 2-cycle oil into
the cylinder. Pull the starter rope slowly to distribute the
oil. Reinstall the spark plug.
NOTE: Remove the spark plug and drain all of the oil from the
cylinder before attempting to start the trimmer after storage.
4. Thoroughly clean the unit and inspect it for any loose or
damaged parts. Repair or replace damaged parts and tighten
loose screws, nuts or bolts. The unit is ready for storage.
TRANSPORTING
• Allow the engine to cool before transporting.
• Drain fuel from unit.
• Tighten fuel cap before transporting.
• Secure the unit while transporting.
2. Release the throttle trigger and let the engine idle. If the
engine stops, insert a small phillips or flat blade
screwdriver into the hole in the air filter/muffler cover (Fig.
30). Turn the idle speed screw in,
clockwise , 1/8 of a turn
at a time (as needed) until the engine idles smoothly.
NOTE: The cutting attachment should not rotate when the
engine idles.
3. If the cutting attachment rotates when the engine idles,
turn the idle speed screw
counterclockwise 1/8 of a turn
at a time (as needed), to reduce idle speed.
Checking the fuel mixture, cleaning the air filter, and adjusting
the idle speed should solve most engine problems. If not and
all of the following are true:
• the engine will not idle
• the engine hesitates or stalls on acceleration
• there is a loss of engine power
Have the carburetor adjusted by an authorized service dealer.
REPLACING THE SPARK PLUG
Use a Champion RDJ7Y spark plug, or equivalent. The correct air
gap is
0.025 inch (0.635 mm) . Remove the plug after every 25
hours of operation and check its condition.
1.
Stop the engine and allow it to cool. Grasp the plug wire
firmly and pull the boot from the spark plug.

Check Fuel Mixture
Old and/or improperly mixed fuel is usually the reason for
improper unit performance. Drain and refill the tank with fresh,
properly-mixed fuel prior to making any adjustments. Refer to
Oil and Fuel Information .
Clean Air Filter
The condition of the air filter is important to the operation of the
unit. A dirty air filter will restrict air flow and change the air/fuel
mixture. This is often mistaken for an out of adjustment
carburetor. Check the condition of the air filter before adjusting
the idle speed screw. Refer to
Air Filter Maintenance .
Adjust Idle Speed Screw
If, after checking the fuel mixture and cleaning the air filter, the
engine still will not idle, adjust the idle speed screw as follows:
1.
Start the engine and let it run at a high idle for a minute to
warm up. Refer to
Starting/Stopping Instructions .
CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT
The idle speed of the engine is adjustable through the air
filter/muffler cover (Fig. 30).
NOTE: Careless adjustments can seriously damage your unit.
An authorized service dealer should make carburetor
adjustments.

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
The cutting attachment may spin
during idle speed adjustments. Wear protective
clothing and observe all safety instructions to prevent
serious personal injury.
WARNING:
To prevent serious personal injury,
make sure the cutting attachment has stopped
rotating before you turn it off and set it down.
WARNING:
Do not sand blast, scrape or clean
electrodes. Grit in the engine could damage the
cylinder.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury,
always turn your trimmer off and allow it to cool
before you clean or maintain it.
