OIL & FUEL INFORMATION

NOTE: Dispose of the old fuel/oil mix in accordance to

Federal, State and Local regulations.

CAUTION: For proper engine operation and max-

imum reliability, pay strict attention to the oil and

fuel mixing instructions on the 2-cycle oil con-

tainer. Using improperly mixed fuel can severely

damage the engine.

WARNING: Gasoline is extremely flammable.

Ignited Vapors may explode. Always stop the

engine and allow it to cool before filling the fuel

tank. Do not smoke while filling the tank. Keep

sparks and open flames at a distance from the area.

WARNING: Remove fuel cap slowly to avoid injury

from fuel spray. Never operate the unit without the

fuel cap securely in place

WARNING: Add fuel in a clean, well ventilated

area outdoors. Wipe up any spilled fuel immedi-

ately. Avoid creating a source of ignition for spilt

fuel. Do not start the engine until fuel vapors

dissipate.

OIL AND FUEL MIXING INSTRUCTIONS

Old and/or improperly mixed fuel are the main reasons for

improper unit performance. Be sure to use fresh, clean

unleaded fuel. Follow the instructions carefully for the proper

fuel/oil mixture.

Definition of Blended Fuels

Today's fuels are often a blend of gasoline and oxygenates

such as ethanol, methanol, or MTBE (ether). Alcohol-blended

fuel absorbs water. As little as 1% water in the fuel can make

fuel and oil separate. It forms acids when stored. When using

alcohol-blended fuel, use fresh fuel (less than 60 days old).

Using Blended Fuels

If you choose to use a blended fuel, or its use is unavoidable,

follow recommended precautions:

• Always use the fresh fuel mix explained in your opera-

tor's manual

• Always agitate the fuel mix before fueling the unit

• Drain the tank and run the engine dry before storing the

unit

Using Fuel Additives

The bottle of 2-cycle oil that came with your unit contains a

fuel additive which will help inhibit corrosion and minimize

the formation of gum deposits. It is recommended that you

use our 2-cycle oil with this unit.

If unavailable, use a good 2-cycle oil designed for air-cooled

engines along with a fuel additive, such as STA-BIL® Gas

Stabilizer or an equivalent. Add 0.8 oz. (23 ml.) of fuel

additive per gallon of fuel according to the instructions on

the container. NEVER add fuel additives directly to the unit's

fuel tank.

Thoroughly mix the proper ratio of 2-cycle engine oil with

unleaded gasoline in a separate fuel can. Use a 40:1 fuel/oil

ratio. Do not mix them directly in the engine fuel tank. See

the table below for specific gas and oil mixing ratios.

NOTE: One gallon (3.8 liters) of unleaded gasoline

mixed with one 3.2 oz. (95 ml.) bottle of

2-cycle oil makes a 40:1 fuel/oil ratio.

UNLEADED GAS 2 CYCLE OIL

2. Make sure the On/Off Stop Control in the ON (I) position

(Fig. 6).

3. Fully press and release the primer bulb 10 times, slowly,

until FUEL IS VISIBLE IN THE PRIMER BULB (Fig. 7). If

you can’t see fuel in the bulb, press and release the bulb

as many times as it takes before you can see fuel in it.

4. Place the choke lever in the FULL choke (A) position

(Fig. 7).

5. With the unit in the starting position (Fig. 8), squeeze the

throttle control to the wide open (full throttle) position.

Pull the starter rope briskly 5 times in the FULL choke

(A) position. If the engine attempts to run before the

fifth pull, proceed to step 6.

NOTE: The engine will not run in the FULL choke (A)

position.

6. Place the choke lever in the PARTIAL choke (B)

position (Fig. 7).

7. Pull starter rope briskly 1 to 3 times to start the engine

(Fig. 8).

NOTE: Squeeze the throttle control until the engine has

started and warmed up.

8. If the engine does not start, repeat steps 3 through 7.

9. Squeeze the throttle control to warm up the engine for 5

to 10 seconds. Place the choke lever in the RUN (C)

position (Fig. 7).

NOTE: Choking is unnecessary when starting a warm

engine. Start the unit in the PARTIAL choke (B)

position (Fig. 7). After starting, place the

choke lever in the RUN (C) position (Fig. 7).

WARNING:

Operate this unit only in a well- ventilat-

ed outdoor area. Carbon monoxide exhaust fumes

can be lethal in a confined area.

HOLDING THE TRIMMER

Before operating the unit, stand in the operating position

(Fig. 9). Check for the following:

• The operator is wearing eye protection and proper

clothing

• With a slightly-bent right arm, the operator’s right hand

is holding the shaft grip

• The operator’s left arm is straight, the left hand holding

the D-handle

• The unit is at waist level

• The cutting attachment is parallel to the ground and

easily contacts the grass without the need to bend over

WARNING: Always wear eye, hearing, foot and

body protection to reduce the risk of injury

when operating this unit.

NOTE: Do not rest the Bump Head™ on the ground

while the unit is running.

Some line breakage will occur from:

• Entanglement with foreign matter

• Normal line fatigue

• Attempting to cut thick, stalky weeds

• Forcing the line into objects such as walls or fence posts

TIPS FOR BEST TRIMMING RESULTS

• For best trimming results, operate unit at full throttle.

• Keep the cutting attachment parallel to the ground.

• Do not force the cutting attachment. Allow the tip of the

line to do the cutting, especially along walls. Cutting with

more than the tip will reduce cutting efficiency and may

overload the engine.

• Cut grass over 8 inches (200 mm) by working from top to

bottom in small increments to avoid premature line wear

or engine drag.

• Cut from right to left whenever possible. Cutting to the

left improves the unit's cutting efficiency. Clippings are

thrown away from the operator.

• Slowly move the trimmer into and out of the cutting area

at the desired height. Move either in a forward-backward

or side-to-side motion. Cutting shorter lengths produces

the best results.

• Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.

• The life of your cutting line is dependent upon:

• Proper adherence of trimming techniques (explained above)

• What vegetation is cut

• Where vegetation is cut

For example, the line will wear faster when trimming against a

foundation wall as opposed to trimming around a tree.

CAUTION:

Do not remove or alter the line cutting

blade assembly. Excessive line length will make the

clutch overheat. This may lead to serious personal

injury or damage to the unit.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Fig. 9

ADJUSTING TRIMMING LINE LENGTH

The Bump Head™ cutting attachment allows you to release

trimming line without stopping the engine. To release more

line, lightly tap the cutting attachment on the ground (Fig. 10)

while operating the trimmer at high speed.

NOTE: Always keep the trimming line fully extended.

Line release becomes more difficult as cutting

line becomes shorter.

Each time the head is bumped, about 1 inch (25.4 mm) of

trimming line releases. A blade in the cutting attachment

shield will cut the line to the proper length if any excess line

is released.

For best results, tap the bump knob on bare ground or hard soil.

If you attempt a line release in tall grass, the engine may stall.

Always keep the trimming line fully extended. Line release

becomes more difficult when the cutting line gets shorter.

DECORATIVE TRIMMING

Decorative trimming is accomplished by removing all

vegetation around trees, posts, fences, etc.

Rotate the whole unit so that the cutting attachment is at a

30° angle to the ground (Fig. 11).

MAINTENANCE & REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS

Fig. 25

Fig. 24

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.

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. 26). Turn the idle speed screw in, clockwise, 1/8 of a

turn at a time (as needed) until the engine idles smoothly.

CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT

The idle speed of the engine is adjustable through the air

filter/muffler cover (Fig. 26).

NOTE: Careless adjustments can seriously damage

your unit. An authorized service dealer should

make carburetor adjustments.

Idle Speed Screw

3. If the engine appears to be idling too fast, 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:

• 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 0.020 inch (0.5 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 it from the spark plug.

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 0.020 in. (0.5 mm) using a feeler gauge (Fig. 27).

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.

0.020 in.

(0.5 mm)

CAUTION: Do not sand blast, scrape or clean

electrodes. Grit in the engine could damage the

cylinder.

WARNING: The cutting attachment may be

spinning 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.

MAINTENANCE & REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS

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.

WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury,

always turn your trimmer off and allow it to cool

before you clean or service it.

smog standards. Bolens must warrant the emission control system on your small off-road engine for the periods of time listed

below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your small off-road engine.

Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor or fuel-injected system, the ignition system, and catalytic

converter. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission-related assemblies.

Where a warrantable condition exists, Bolens will repair your small off-road engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts

and labor.

The 2002 and later small off-road engines are warranted for two years. If any emission-related part on your engine is defective,

the part will be repaired or replaced my Bolens.

Owners Warranty Responsibilities

• As the small off-road engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your

operator’s manual. Bolens recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your small off-road engine, but

Bolens cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled

maintenance.

• As the small off-road engine owner, you however should be aware that Bolens may deny you warranty coverage if your small

off-road engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.

• You are responsible for presenting your small off-road engine to a Bolens Authorized Service Center as soon as a problem exists.

The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.

If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should call 1-800-520-5520.

Manufacturer’s Warranty Coverage

• The warranty period begins on the date the engine or equipment is delivered to the retail purchaser.
