OIL AND FUEL INFORMATION

RECOMMENDED FUEL TYPE

Old fuel is the primary reason for improper unit performance.

Be sure to use fresh, clean, unleaded gasoline.

NOTE: This is a four cycle engine. In order to avoid damage

to the unit, do not mix oil with gasoline.

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 or form acids when

stored. Use fresh fuel (less than 60 days old), when using

alcohol-blended fuel.

FUELING THE UNIT

1. Remove the fuel cap (Fig. 8).

Fig. 8

Fuel Tank

Gas Can Spout

2. Place the gas container’s spout into the fill hole on the fuel

tank (Fig. 10) and fill the tank.

NOTE: Do not overfill the tank.

3. Wipe up any gasoline that may have spilled.

4. Reinstall the fuel cap.

5. Move the unit at least 30 ft. (9.1 m) from the fueling source

and site before starting the engine.

NOTE: Dispose of the old gasoline in accordance to Federal,

State and Local regulations.

Unleaded

Gasoline

WARNING:

Remove fuel cap slowly to avoid

injury from fuel spray. Never operate the unit without

the fuel cap securely in place

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: Add fuel in a clean, well ventilated

outdoor area. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.

Avoid creating a source of ignition for spilt fuel. Do

not start the engine until fuel vapors dissipate.

Gas Cap

Using Blended Fuels

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

follow recommended precautions:

• Always use fresh unleaded gasoline

• Use the fuel additive STA-BIL

or an equivalent

• Drain tank and run the engine dry before storing unit

Using Fuel Additives

The use of fuel additives, such as STA-BIL

Gas Stabilizer or an

equivalent, will inhibit corrosion and

minimize the formation of gum deposits. Using a fuel additive

can keep fuel from forming harmful deposits in the carburetor

for up to six (6) months. 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 gas tank.

4. Pour the entire bottle of oil into the oil fill hole (Fig. 6).

NOTE: Never add oil to the fuel or fuel tank.

5. Wipe up any oil that may have spilled and reinstall the oil fill

plug / dipstick.

Check oil before each use and change as needed. Refer to

Changing the Oil.

WARNING: Avoid accidental starting. Make sure you are

in the starting position when pulling the starter rope

(Fig. 11).

To avoid serious injury, the operator and unit must

be in a stable position while starting.

WARNING:

Operate this unit only in a well- ventilated

outdoor area. Carbon monoxide exhaust fumes can be lethal

in a confined area.

DECORATIVE TRIMMING

Decorative trimming is accomplished by removing all

vegetation around trees, posts, fences and more.

Rotate the whole unit so that the cutting attachment is at a 30°

angle to the ground (Fig. 14).

HOLDING THE TRIMMER

Before operating the unit, stand in the operating position (Fig.

13). 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

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

Fig. 13

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.

• 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 explained trimming techniques

• 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.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Always wear eye, hearing, foot and

body protection to reduce the risk of injury when

operating this unit.

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. 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 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. 34). 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.

ROCKER ARM CLEARANCE

This requires disassembly of the engine. If you feel unsure or

unqualified to perform this, take the unit to an authorized

service center.

NOTE: Inspect the valve to rocker arm clearance with a feeler

gauge after the first 10 hours of operation and then

every 25 hours of operation thereafter.

• The engine must be cold when checking or adjusting the

valve clearance.

• This task should be performed inside in a clean, dust free

area.

1. Remove the five (5) screws on back of the engine cover with

a Flat-head or T-20 Torx screwdriver (Fig. 35).

WARNING: To prevent serious personal injury,

make sure the cutting attachment has stopped

rotating before you turn it off and set it down.

WARNING: The cutting attachment may spin

during idle speed adjustments. Wear protective

clothing and observe all safety instructions to

prevent serious personal injury.

Idle Ajustment

Screw

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS

CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT

The idle speed of the engine is adjustable. An idle adjustment

screw is reached though a hole in the top of the engine cover

(Fig. 34).

NOTE: Careless adjustments can seriously damage your unit.

An authorized service dealer should make carburetor

adjustments.

Check Fuel

Old fuel is usually the reason for improper unit performance.

Drain and refill the tank with fresh fuel prior to making any

adjustments. Refer to Oil and Fuel Information.

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, 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.

3. Disconnect the spark plug wire.

4. Clean dirt from around the spark plug. Remove the spark

plug from the cylinder head by turning a 5/8 in. socket

counterclockwise.

5. Remove the engine cover (Fig. 35 & 36).

6. Clean dirt from around the rocker arm cover. Remove the

screw holding the rocker arm cover with a large flat blade

screwdriver or Torx T-25 bit (Fig. 37). Remove the rocker

arm cover and gasket.

7. Pull the starter rope slowly to bring the piston to the top of its

travel, (known as top dead center). Check that:

• The piston is at the top of its travel while looking in the

spark plug hole (Fig. 37)

• Both rocker arms move freely, and both valves are closed

If these statements are not true, repeat this step.

8. Slide the feeler gauge between the rocker arm and the

valve return spring. Measure the clearance between the

valve stem and rocker arm (Fig. 38). Measure both the

intake and exhaust valves.

The recommended clearance for both intake and exhaust is

.003 – .006 in. (.076 – 0.152 mm). Use a standard automotive

.005 in. (0.127 mm) feeler gauge. The feeler gauge should slide

between the rocker arm and valve stem with a slight amount of

resistance, without binding. Figure 38 and 39 show how to

measure the clearance.
