WARNING
Never start or run the engine inside a closed or poorly
ventilated area; breathing exhaust fumes can kill.
TO START A COLD ENGINE:
1 Lay trimmer on a flat, bare surface.
2 Push primer bulb 8 to 10 times.
NOTE: Do not squeeze the throttle trigger before engine
starts. Squeezing the throttle trigger at this time will prevent
the unit from starting.
3 Move the lever to the “COLD START” position. See
Figure 17.
4 Pull the starter rope until engine runs.
5 Allow the engine to warm up for 4-10 seconds.
6 Depress the throttle interlock then squeeze and release
the throttle trigger. This allows the choke to automati-
cally set to the “WARM START” position. Your unit is
now ready for use.
NOTE: The lever will automatically set to the “WARM
START” position after the throttle trigger is squeezed for
the first time.
TO START A WARM ENGINE:
1. Lay trimmer on a flat, bare surface.
2. Choke lever should already be in the “WARM START”
position. If not, squeeze and release throttle trigger.
Pull the starter rope until unit runs.
TO STOP THE ENGINE:
To stop the engine, depress the switch to the “O” position.
