RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
5
Do not overreach. Always keep proper footing and
balance.
Always hold the unit with both hands when operating.
Keep a firm grip on both handles or grips.
Keep hands, face, and feet at a distance from all
moving parts. Do not touch or try to stop the cutting
attachment when it rotates.
Do not touch the engine, gear housing or muffler.
These parts get extremely hot from operation, even
after the unit is turned off.
Do not operate the engine faster than the speed
needed to cut, trim or edge. Do not run the engine at
high speed when not cutting.
Always stop the engine when cutting is delayed or
when walking from one cutting location to another.
If you strike or become entangled with a foreign
object, stop the engine immediately and check for
damage. Do not operate before repairing damage. Do
not operate the unit with loose or damaged parts.
Stop the unit, switch the engine to off, and disconnect
the spark plug for maintenance or repair.
Use only Genuine Factory Parts™ replacement parts
and accessories for this unit. These are available from
your authorized service dealer. Use of any
unauthorized parts or accessories could lead to
serious injury to the user, or damage to the unit, and
void your warranty.
Keep unit clean of vegetation and other materials.
They may become lodged between the cutting
attachment and shield.
To reduce fire hazard, replace a faulty muffler and
spark arrestor. Keep the engine and muffler free from
grass, leaves, excessive grease or carbon build up.
WHILE OPERATING WITH CUTTING BLADE
Read and understand all safety warnings before
operating this unit.
Always use the shoulder harness when using the
brush blade accessory.
Keep the J-handle between the operator and cutting
attachment or blade at all times.
NEVER cut when the cutting blade is 30 inches
(76 cm) or more above the ground level.
Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade
contacts an object that it does not immediately cut.
Blade thrust can be violent enough to propel the unit
and/or operator in any direction, possibly causing a
loss of control. Blade thrust can occur without warning
if the blade snags, stalls or binds. This is more likely to
occur in areas where it is difficult to see the material
being cut.
For operation with the brush blade, do not cut
anything thicker than 1/2 inch or a violent kickback
could occur.
Do not attempt to touch or stop the blade when it is
rotating.
•A coasting blade can cause injury while it continues to
spin after the engine is stopped or the throttle trigger
is released. Maintain proper control until the blade has
completely stopped rotating.
Do not run the unit at high speed when not cutting.
If you strike or become entangled with a foreign
object, stop the engine immediately and check for
damage. Have any damage repaired before attempting
further operations. Do not operate unit with a bent,
cracked or dull blade. Discard blades that are bent,
warped, cracked or broken.
Do not sharpen the cutting blade. Sharpening the blade
can cause the blade tip to break off while in use. This
can result in severe personal injury. Replace the blade.
Do not use the cutting blade for edging or as an edger;
severe personal injury to yourself or others may incur.
Use the cutting blade only for the purpose described
in this manual.
Stop the engine IMMEDIATELY if you feel excessive
vibration. Vibration is a sign of trouble. Inspect
thoroughly for loose nuts, bolts or damage before
continuing. Repair or replace affected parts as
necessary.
After Use
Clean cutting blades with a household cleaner to
remove any gum buildup. Oil the blade with machine
oil to prevent rust.
Lock up and store the cutting blade in an appropriate
area to protect the blade from unauthorized use or
damage.
OTHER SAFETY WARNINGS

may reach an open flame or spark.
Allow the engine to cool before storing or transporting.
Be sure to secure the unit while transporting.
Store the unit in a dry area, locked up or up high to
prevent unauthorized use or damage, out of the reach
of children.
Never douse or squirt the unit with water or any other
liquid. Keep handles dry, clean and free from debris.

OIL AND FUEL INFORMATION
NOTE: Dispose of the old fuel/oil mix in accordance to
Federal, State and Local regulations.
CAUTION: For proper engine operation and
maximum reliability, pay strict attention to
the oil and fuel mixing instructions on the
2-cycle oil container. 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 immediately. 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 the unit not running properly. 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
operator'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.

13
HOLDING THE TRIMMER
Before operating the unit, stand in the operating position
(Fig. 19). 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 J-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
Once you are in the operating position, hook the
shoulder strap to the unit.
WARNING: Always wear eye, hearing, foot
and body protection to reduce the risk of
injury when operating this unit.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Fig. 19
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. 20) while operating the trimmer at high speed.
NOTE: Always keep the trimming line fully extended.
Line release becomes more difficult as the cutting
line becomes shorter.
Fig. 20
Each time the head is bumped, about 1 inch (25.4 mm) of
trimming line is released. A blade in the cutting
attachment shield will cut the line to the proper length if
excess line is released.
For best results, tap the Bump Head™ on bare ground or
hard soil. If line release is attempted in tall grass, the
engine may stall. Always keep the trimming line fully
extended. Line release becomes more difficult as the
cutting line becomes shorter.
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 left to right whenever possible. Cutting to the
right 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:
•Following the previously-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.
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.

Fig. 23
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. 21).
USING THE CUTTING BLADE
Before operating the unit with the cutting blade, stand in
the operating position (Fig. 22). Refer to Holding the
Trimmer.
Cutting Blade Operating Tips
To establish a rhythmic cutting procedure:
Plant feet firmly, comfortably apart.
Bring the engine to full throttle before entering the
material to be cut. At full throttle the blade has
maximum cutting power and is less likely to bind, stall
or cause blade thrust (which can result in serious
personal injury to the operator or others).
Cut while swinging the upper part of your body from
left to right.
Always release the throttle trigger and allow the engine
to return to idle speed when not cutting.
When you are finished, always unsnap the unit from
the harness before taking off the harness.
Swing the unit in the opposite direction that the blade
spins, which increases the cutting action.
After the return swing, move forward to the next area
to be cut plant your feet again.
The cutting blade is designed with a second cutting
edge. You can use it by removing the blade, turning it
upside down, and reinstalling it.
To reduce the chance of material wrapping around the
blade, follow these steps:
Cut at full throttle
Swing the unit into material to be cut from your left to
your right (Fig. 23)
Avoid the material just cut as you make the return swing
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Always wear eye, hearing, foot,
body protection and the shoulder strap to
reduce the risk of injury when operating this unit.
WARNING: Do not clear away any cut
material with the engine running or blade
turning. To avoid serious personal injury,
turn off the engine. Allow the blade to stop
before removing materials wrapped around
the blade shaft.
WARNING: Do not sharpen the cutting
blade. Sharpening the blade can cause the
blade tip to break off while in use. This can
result in severe personal injury to yourself
or others. Replace the blade.
WARNING: The blade continues to spin after
the engine is turned off. The coasting blade
can seriously cut you if accidentally touched.
WARNING: Blade thrust may occur when
the spinning blade contacts an object that
it does not immediately cut. Blade thrust
can be violent enough to cause the unit
and/or operator to be propelled in any
direction, and possibly lose control of the
unit. Blade thrust can occur without
warning if the blade snags, stalls or binds.
This is more likely to occur in areas where it
is difficult to see the material being cut.
WARNING: Do not use the cutting blade
for edging or as an edger. Severe personal
injury to yourself or others can result.

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. 40). 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. 40).
NOTE: Careless adjustments can seriously damage your
unit. An authorized service dealer should make
carburetor adjustments.
Fig. 40
Idle Speed Screw
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:
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. 41).
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.
