The carburetor has been carefully set at the
factory. Adjustments may be necessary if you
notice any of the following conditions:
• Engine will not idle when the throttle is
released.

attachment moves/spins at idle.
Make adjustments with the unit supported so
the cutting attachment is off the ground and
will not make contact with any object. Hold
the unit by hand while running and making ad-
justments. Keep all parts of your body away
from the cutting attachment and muffler.

runs without trimmer head, blade or optional
attachment moving or spinning (idle too fast)
or stalling (idle speed too slow).

increase engine speed if engine stalls or
dies.

decrease engine speed if trimmer head,
blade or optional attachment moves or
spins at idle.
