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,
edging and sweeping. Do not use for prun-
ing 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

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 (95 ml) of oil with 1 gallon (4
liters) 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.

IMPORTANT
Experience indicates that alcohol blended
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or metha-
nol) can attract moisture which leads to separa-
tion and formation of acids during storage. Acid-
ic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine
while in storage. To avoid engine problems,
empty the fuel system before storage for 30
days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the en-
gine and let it run until the fuel lines and carbure-
tor are empty. Use fresh fuel next season.
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner prod-
ucts in the fuel tank or permanent damage may
occur. See the STORAGE section for addi-
tional information.

CUTTING METHODS
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING POSITION
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.
ALWAYS WEAR:
Eye Protection
Long Pants
Heavy Shoes
Cut from your right to your left.
Tip of the Line
Does The Cutting
Line Crowded Into
Work Area
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.
Always release the throttle trigger and allow the
engine to return to idle speed when not cutting.
To stop engine:
S Release the throttle trigger.
S Move the ON/OFF switch to the OFF posi-
tion.
TWIST AND EDGE
The Twist and Edge feature allows for easy
edging of sidewalks, patios, driveways, etc.
1. Pull the tab toward the engine.
2. Twist the tube to the edging position; re-
lease tab.
Right
Wrong
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. To
help avoid damage especially to delicate
vegetation or trees with tender bark,
shorten line to 4--5 inches (10--13 cm) and
use at less than full throttle.
S For trimming or scalping, use less than full
throttle to increase line life and decrease
head wear, especially:
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 inches (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.
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.
Trimming
Upon unit start up, the line will advance auto-
matically to the correct cutting path length.
Always keep the shield in place when the tool
is being operated.
3 inches (8 cm)
above ground
WARNING: Use only 0.080” (2 mm)
diameter round line. Other sizes and shapes SCALPING -- The scalping technique re-
of line will not advance properly and will result in moves unwanted vegetationdown to the
improper cutting head function or can cause se- ground. Hold the bottom of the trimmer head
rious injury. Do not use other materials such as about 3 in. (8 cm) above the ground and at an
wire, string, rope, etc. Wire can break off during angle. Allow the tip of the line to strike the
cutting and become a dangerous missile that ground around trees, posts, monuments, etc.
can cause serious injury.
This technique increases line wear.

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.

Sweeping
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.
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.
