Slope Operation
•
•
Use extra care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees or other objects
which can result in severe injury. All slopes require extra caution. If you
feel uneasy on it do not trim it.
DO: Trim across the face of a slope and not up and down.

The operation of any mower can encounter foreign objects to be thrown into the eyes, resulting in
severe eye damage. Always wear certified safety glasses or wide-vision safety goggles over
spectacles before starting any cutting machine and while operating such a machine.
The operation of any mower produces sound waves that are damaging to the human ear. Ear
protection is recommended.
CAUTION!
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children
are often attracted to the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that children
will remain where you last saw them.
Do not operate the trimmer if it vibrates abnormally. Excessive vibration is a sign of damage.
Stop the engine and safely check for damage and repair as required.

to avoid pinching or damaging the control cable. (Fig. 2)

handle mounting plates at the rear of the trimmer. Do not fully tighten until you’re ready to adjust the handle for
operation! (Fig. 3)
5. Rotate the upper handle up to align it with the lower handle (Fig 4). Next, slowly pull the engine starter rope until
it will slide into the rope guide then tighten the plastic handle knobs on both sides.

Preparing Unit For First Use
• Fill engine crankcase with oil. A 20oz. bottle has been provided with this unit. A new unit
requires 18-20oz. DO NOT OVERFILL.
• Fill the engine fuel tank with gasoline. GASOLINE SHOULD BE ADDED OUTSIDE IN A
WELL-VENTILATED AREA.
• Check to ensure string has been installed properly. A diagram is provided just above the
trimmer head for proper installation.
• Refer to engine manufacture’s manual for oil and fuel specifications.
Operation
Important! To ensure proper operation, clean the engine and trimmer
regularly. Remove any build up of chaff from the top of the engine.
To start the trimmer:
1. Grasp the control bale against the handle and hold. The trimmer head will begin turning
when the engine is being started.
2. Grasp the engine rope handle and pull out slowly until resistance is felt, then pull rapidly
with full arm stroke. Repeat until the engine starts.
3. To stop the engine, release the control bale.
Important! For safest operation, make sure debris is directed away from you and others.
Trimming Tips
• Do not lift the trimmer head when trimming. Let the head rest lightly touching the ground.
• Keep an eye on the length of the trimmer line. As the line gets shorter they become less
effective at cutting and will take longer to trim properly. Replace the line as necessary (see
Installing Trimmer Line).
• Do not trim wet grass.
• Use caution when trimming slopes.
• Use the proper length of line. Using a line too long for the unit will cause stalling and
unacceptable operation.
Troubleshooting
• If engine will not start, remove and check air filter to make sure filter and
carburetor are clean.

Installing Trimmer Line
Important! Use the proper length of line. Using a line too long for the unit will cause
stalling and unacceptable operation.
