FUELINg AND REFUELINg ThE TRIMMER FUEL MIXTURE This product is powered by a 2-cycle engine and requires pre-mixing gasoline and 2-cycle lubricant. Pre-mix unleaded gasoline and 2-cycle engine lubricant in a clean 1 gallon container approved for gasoline. Recommended fuel: This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline intended for automotive use. Mix a high quality 2-cycle engine lubricant at 2.6 oz. per gallon (US). Do not use automotive lubricant or 2-cycle outboard lubricant. DO NOT mix quantities larger than usable in a 30 day period. hIgh qUALITY 2-CYCLE ENgINE LUbRICANT gASOLINE LUbRICANT 1 gallon (US) 2.6 oz. 1 liter 20 cc (20 ml) FILLINg TANK • Clean surface around fuel cap to prevent contamination. • Loosen fuel cap slowly. Rest the cap on a clean surface. • Carefully pour fuel into the tank. Avoid spillage. • Prior to replacing the fuel cap, clean and inspect the gasket. • Immediately replace fuel cap and hand tighten. Wipe up any fuel spillage. NOTE: It is normal for smoke to be emitted from a new engine after first use. WARNINg: Always shut off engine before fueling. Never add fuel to a machine with a running or hot engine. Move at least 30 ft. from refueling site before starting engine. Do not smoke! Failure to heed this warning could result in serious personal injury. OXYgENATED FUELS Some conventional gasolines are blended with alcohol or an ether compound. These gasolines are collectively referred to as oxygenated fuels. To meet clean air standards, some areas of the United States and Canada use oxygenated fuels to help reduce emissions. If using an oxygenated fuel, make sure it is unleaded and meets the minimum octane rating requirements. Before using an oxygenated fuel, try to confirm the fuel’s contents. Some states/provinces require this information to be posted on the pump. The following are the EPA approved percentages of oxygenates: Ethanol (ethyl or grain alcohol) 10% by volume. You may use gasoline containing up to 10% ethanol by volume. Gasoline containing ethanol may be marketed under the name “Gasohol.” Do not use E85 fuel. MTbE (methyl tertiary butyl ether) 15% by volume. You may use gasoline containing up to 15% MTBE by volume. Methanol (methyl or wood alcohol) 5% by volume. You may use gasoline containing up to 5% methanol by volume as long as it also contains cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors to protect the fuel system. Gasoline containing more than 5% methanol by volume may cause starting and/or performance problems. It may also damage metal, rubber, and plastic parts of the product or your fuel system. If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms, try anoth er service station or switch to another brand of gasoline. NOTE: Fuel system damage or performance problems resulting from the use of an oxygenated fuel containing more than the percentages of oxygenates stated previously are not covered under warranty. OPERATINg ThE TRIMMER See Figure 15. WARNINg: Always position the unit on the operator’s right side. The use of the unit on the operator’s left side will expose the user to hot surfaces and can result in possible burn injury. 10 — English OPERATION OPERATION WARNINg: To avoid burns from hot surfaces, never operate unit with the bottom of the engine above waist level. Hold the trimmer with your right hand on the rear handle and your left hand on the front handle. Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation. Trimmer should be held at a comfortable position with the rear handle about hip height. Always operate trimmer at full throttle. Cut tall grass from the top down. This will prevent grass from wrapping around the shaft housing and string head which could cause damage from overheating. If grass becomes wrapped around the string head, STOP THE ENGINE, disconnect the spark plug wire, and remove the grass. Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result in lubricant dripping from the muffler. WARNINg: Always hold the string trimmer away from the body keeping clearance between the body and the product. Any contact with the housing or string trimmer cutting head can result in burns and/or other serious personal injury. TO ADVANCE ThE CUTTINg LINE (bUMP FEED STRINg hEAD) Line advance is controlled by tapping the string head on grass while running engine at full throttle. • Run engine at full throttle. • Taptheknobon groundtoadvanceline.The lineadvances each time the knob is tapped.
