CUTTING SAFETY  
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 ab-  
normal swellings. Prolonged use in cold  
weather has been linked to blood vessel dam-  
age 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 med-  
ical attention. An anti--vibration system does  
not guarantee the avoidance of these prob-  
lems. Users who operate power tools on a  
continual and regular basis must monitor  
closely their physical condition and the condi-  
tion of this tool.  
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 the trimmer head and be thrown  
causing serious injury.  
S Use only for trimming, scalping, mowing and  
sweeping. Do not use for edging, pruning or  
hedge trimming.  
S Keep firm footing and balance. Do not over-  
reach.  
S Keep all parts of your body away from muffler  
and spinning line. Keep engine below waist  
level. A hot muffler can cause serious burns.  
S Cut from your right to your left. Cutting on left  
side of the shield will throw debris away from  
the operator.  
S Use only in daylight or good artificial light.  
S Use only for jobs explained in this manual.  
TRANSPORTING AND STORAGE  
S Allow engine to cool; secure unit before stor-  
ing or transporting in vehicle.  
SPECIAL NOTICE: This unit is equipped  
with a temperature limiting muffler and spark  
arresting screen which meets the require-  
ments of California Codes 4442 and 4443. All  
U.S. forest land and the states of California,  
Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, New Jersey, Ore-  
gon, and Washington require by law that  
many internal combustion engines be  
equipped with a spark arresting screen. If you  
operate in a locale where such regulations ex-  
ist, you are legally responsible for maintaining  
the operating condition of these parts. Failure  
to do so is a violation of the law. For normal  
homeowner use, the muffler and spark arrest-  
ing screen will not require any service. After

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.  
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.  
read and follow the safety rules relating to fuel  
before fueling your unit.  
BEFORE STARTING ENGINE  
WARNING: Be sure to read the fuel  
information in the safety rules before you  
begin. If you do not understand the safety  
rules, do not attempt to fuel your unit. Call  
1-800-554-6723.  
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.  
FUELING ENGINE  
To avoid engine problems, empty the fuel sys-  
tem before storage 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 cleaner prod-  
ucts in the fuel tank or permanent damage  
may occur.  
WARNING: Remove fuel cap slowly  
when refueling.  
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 of oil with 1 gallon of  
unleaded 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 container momentarily to  
assure that the fuel is thoroughly mixed. Always  
See the STORAGE section for additional in-  
formation.

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.  
Do not run the engine at a higher speed than  
necessary. The cutting line will cut efficiently  
when the engine is run at less than full throttle.  
At lower speeds, there is less engine noise  
and vibration. The cutting line will last longer  
and will be less likely to “weld” onto the spool.

TRIMMER LINE ADVANCE  
The cutting head advances line automati-  
cally. Do not tap head on the ground to ad-  
vance line. This may break parts and cause  
cutting head to malfunction.  
Upon unit start up, the line will advance auto-  
matically to the correct cutting path length.  
Above Ground  
SCALPING -- The scalping technique re-  
moves unwanted vegetationdown to the  
ground. Hold the bottom of the trimmer head  
about 3 in. (8 cm) above the ground and at an  
angle. Allow the tip of the line to strike the  
ground around trees, posts, monuments, etc.  
This technique increases line wear.  
Scalping  
Always keep the shield in place when the tool  
is being operated.  
WARNING: Use only 0.080” (2 mm)  
diameter round line. Other sizes and shapes  
of line will not advance properly and will result in  
improper 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 missile that  
can cause serious injury.  
CUTTING METHODS  
WARNING: Use minimum speed  
and do not crowd the line when cutting around  
hard objects (rock, gravel, fence posts, etc.),  
which can damage the trimmer head, become  
entangled in the line, or be thrown causing a  
serious hazard.  
S The tip of the line does the cutting. You will  
achieve the best performance and mini-  
mum line wear by not crowding the line into  
the cutting area. The right and wrong ways  
are shown below.  
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.  
Line Crowded Into

S The line will easily remove grass and  
weeds from around walls, fences, trees and  
flower beds, but it also can cut the tender  
bark of trees or shrubs and scar fences.  
S For trimming or scalping, use less than full  
throttle to increase line life and decrease  
head wear, especially:  
SWEEPING -- The fanning action of the rotat-  
ing line can be used for a quick and easy  
clean up. Keep the line parallel to and above  
the surfaces being swept and move the tool  
from side to side.  
Sw
S During light duty cutting.  
S Near objects around which the line can  
wrap such as small posts, trees or fence  
wire.  
S For mowing or sweeping, use full throttle for  
a good clean job.  
TRIMMING -- Hold the bottom of the trimmer  
head about 3 in. (8 cm) above the ground and  
at an angle. Allow only the tip of the line to  
make contact. Do not force trimmer line into  
work area.
