S Always store gasoline in a container ap-  
proved for flammable liquids.  
S Store the unit out of the reach of children.  
SAFETY NOTICE: Exposure to vibrations  
through prolonged use of gasoline powered  
hand tools could cause blood vessel or nerve  
damage in the fingers, hands, and joints of  
people prone to circulation disorders or abnor-  
mal swellings. Prolonged use in cold weather  
has been linked to blood vessel damage in  
otherwise healthy people. If symptoms occur  
such as numbness, pain, loss of strength,  
change in skin color or texture, or loss of feeling  
in the fingers, hands, or joints, discontinue the  
use of this tool and seek medical attention. An  
anti-vibration system does not guarantee the  
avoidance of these problems. Users who oper-  
ate power tools on a continual and regular basis  
must monitor closely their physical condition  
and the condition of this tool.  
CUTTING SAFETY  
WARNING: Inspect the area before  
each use. Remove objects (rocks, broken  
glass, nails, wire, etc.) which can be thrown  
by or become entangled in line. Hard objects  
can damage trimmer head and be thrown  
causing serious injury.  
S Use only for trimming, mowing, edging and  
sweeping. Do not use for pruning or hedge  
trimming.  
S Keep firm footing and balance. Do not over-  
reach.  
S Keep all parts of your body away from spin-  
ning line and muffler. Keep engine below waist  
level. A hot muffler can cause serious burns.  
S Cutting with the line on left side of the shield  
will throw debris away from the operator.  
S Use only in daylight or good artificial light.  
SPECIAL NOTICE: This unit is equipped  
with a temperature limiting muffler and spark ar-  
resting screen which meets the requirements of  
California Codes 4442 and 4443. All U.S. forest

ASSEMBLY  
NOTE: Knob must be assembled on the  
right hand side of the unit as shown in the il-  
lustration.  
WARNING: If received assembled,  
repeat all steps to ensure your unit is properly  
assembled and all fasteners are secure.  
Examine parts for damage. Do not use dam-  
aged parts.  
NOTE: If you need assistance or find parts  
missing or damaged, call 1-800-554-6723.  
It is normal for the fuel filter to rattle in the  
empty fuel tank.  
Finding fuel or oil residue on muffler is normal  
due to carburetor adjustments and testing  
done by the manufacturer.  
ATTACHING THE HANDLE  
2. Make sure the bolt is seated in the hex--  
shaped hole in the handle.  
3. Pivot the handle to a comfortable position.  
4. Tighten knob securely.  
ATTACHING SHIELD  
WARNING: The shield must be prop-  
erly installed. The shield provides partial  
protection from the risk of thrown objects to  
the operator and others and is equipped with  
a line limiter blade which cuts excess line to  
the proper length. The line limiter blade (on  
underside of shield) is sharp and can cut you.  
NOTE: Be sure to attach the assist handle to  
the unit before attaching the shield.  
1. Assemble handle to the unit as shown;  
make sure bottom of handle is seated in  
the groove in the trigger housing.  
For proper orientation of shield, see KNOW

PRIMER BULB  
The PRIMER BULB removes air from the car-  
buretor and fuel lines and fills them with fuel.  
This allows you to start the engine with fewer  
pulls on the starter rope. Activate the primer  
bulb by pressing it and allowing it to return to  
its original form.

position. After the engine attempts to start, move  
the choke lever to the HALF CHOKE position.  
Once engine has started, move the choke lever  
to the OFF CHOKE position.  
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded  
gasoline. Before operation, gasoline must be  
mixed with a good quality synthetic 2-cycle air-  
cooled engine oil designed to be mixed at a ratio  
of 40:1. Poulan/Weed Eater brand synthetic oil  
is recommended. Mix gasoline and oil at a ratio  
of 40:1. A 40:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 3.2  
ounces (95ml) of oil with 1 gallon (4 liters) of un-  
leaded gasoline. DO NOT USE automotive oil  
or boat oil. These oils will cause engine damage.  
When mixing fuel, follow instructions printed on  
container. Once oil is added to gasoline, shake

IMPORTANT  
Experience indicates that alcohol blended  
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or  
methanol) can attract moisture which leads to  
separation and formation of acids during stor-  
age. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system  
of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine  
problems, empty the fuel system before stor-  
age for 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank,  
start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines  
and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next  
season. Never use engine or carburetor clean-  
er products in the fuel tank or permanent dam-  
age may occur. See the STORAGE section for  
additional information.

STARTING A FLOODED ENGINE  
Flooded engines can be started by placing  
the choke lever in the OFF CHOKE position;  
then, pull the rope to clear the engine of ex-  
cess fuel. This could require pulling the starter  
handle many times depending on how badly  
the unit is flooded. If the unit still doesn’t start,

S Tap the bottom of the trimmer head lightly  
on the ground one time. Approximately 2  
inches (5 cm) of line will be advanced with  
each tap.  
Always tap the trimmer head on a grassy  
area. Tapping on surfaces such as concrete  
or asphalt can cause excessive wear to the  
trimmer head.  
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS  
It is recommended that the engine not be  
operated for longer than 1 minute at full  
throttle.  
OPERATING POSITION  
ALWAYS WEAR:  
Eye  
If the line is worn down to 2 inches (5 cm) or  
less, more than one tap will be required to ob-  
tain the most efficient line length.  
Protection  
WARNING: Use only 0.080” (2 mm)  
diameter line. Other sizes and shapes of line  
will not advance properly and will result in im-  
proper cutting head function or can cause se-  
rious injury. Do not use other materials such  
as wire, string, rope, etc. Wire can break off  
during cutting and become a dangerous mis-  
sile that can cause serious injury.

WARNING: Always wear eye protec-  
tion. Never lean over the trimmer head.  
Rocks or debris can ricochet or be thrown into  
eyes and face and cause blindness or other  
serious injury.

help avoid damage especially to delicate  
vegetation or trees with tender bark,  
shorten line to 4--5 in. (10--13 cm) and use  
at less than full throttle.

EDGING-- Adjust trimmer to the edging posi-  
tion (see TWIST AND EDGE section). Allow  
only the tip of the line to make contact. Do not  
force trimmer line into work area.

MOWING -- Your trimmer is ideal for mowing  
in places conventional lawn mowers cannot  
reach. In the mowing position, keep the line  
parallel to the ground. Avoid pressing the  
head into the ground as this can scalp the  
ground and damage the tool.

ance and increases fuel consumption and  
harmful emissions. Always clean after every  
5 hours of operation.
