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.

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

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).

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.

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.

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
