fuel.
Do not store,
spill or use gasoline
near an open flame.
_CAUTmON:
Alcohol
blended
fuels
(called
gasohol
or using ethanol
or
methanol)
can attract
moisture
which
leads to separation
and formation
of acids
during storage.
Acidic
gas can damage
the fuel system
of an engine
while
in
storage.
To avoid engine
problems,
the
fuel system
should
be emptied
before
storage
of 30 days or longer.
Empty
the gas tank, start the engine
and let it
run until the fuel lines and carburetor
are empty.
Use fresh fuel next season.
See Storage
Instructions
for additional
information.
Never use engine
or
carburetor
cleaner
products
in the fuel
tank or permanent
damage
may occur.

it may be
necessary
to repeat
priming
steps.
In
warmer
weather
overpriming
may cause
flooding
and engine
will not start.
If you
do flood engine,

control
lever to STOP
position.
TO START
ENGmNE
1. To start a cold engine,
push primer
three
(3) times
before
trying
to start.
Use a
firm push. This step is not usually
neces-
sary when starting
an engine
which
has
already
run for a few minutes.
2.
Move throttle
control
lever to FAST
position.
3.
Hold upper
handle
firmly
and pull
starter
handle
quickly.
Do not allow
starter
rope to snap
back.
• Set the throttle
control
in the FAST posi-
tion. If the weeds
or grass are tall and
thick, operate
the trimmer
at a slower
walking
speed.
• Frequently
clean the underside
of the
trimmer
to remove
any grass build up.
Keep top of engine
around
starter
clear
and clean of grass clippings
and chaff.
This will help engine
air flow and extend
engine
life.
For best results
and longer
lasting
line,
use the ends of the line to do the cutting.
This is easily
done by moving
slowly
through
very thick and heavy weeds.
• Use the left side of trimmer
when trim-
ming along fences,
walls, fiowerbeds
and other such objects.
• If trimmer
lines become
too short,
it will
take longer
to complete
the job. If trim-
mer lines are worn to less than half their
original
length,
they should
be replaced.
See "TO REPLACE
TRIMMER
LINE" in
the Maintenance
section
of this manual.
• Trimmer
head contact
with concrete,
as-
phalt or other hard surfaces
may cause
premature
wear of the ball on bottom
of
trimmer
head.
