STARTING/STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS
STARTING INSTRUCTIONS
STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Release your hand from the throttle control. Allow the
engine to cool down by idling.
2. Put the On/Off Stop Control in the OFF (O) position.
1. Mix gas with oil. Fill fuel tank with fuel/oil mixture.
See Oil and Fuel Mixing Instructions.
2. Make sure the On/Off Stop Control is in the ON [
I
]
position (Fig. 8).
3. Fully press and release the primer bulb 10 times,
slowly. Some amount of fuel should be visible in the
primer bulb and fuel lines (Fig. 9). If you can’t see
fuel in the bulb, press and release the bulb as many
times as it takes before you can see fuel in it.
4. Push the blue EZ Fire™ Lever towards the primer
bulb until it clicks and locks into place (Fig. 9).
5. Lay the unit on the ground horizontally, with the ends
of the handles resting on the ground (Fig. 10).
6. Put your free hand on the fuel tank to stabilize the
unit. With your other hand, pull the starter rope out
with a controlled and steady motion until the
engine attempts to start. Repeat until the engine
starts.
NOTE: The unit uses the Incredi-Pull™ starting system,
which significantly reduces the effort required to
start the engine. You must pull the starter rope out
far enough to hear the engine attempt to start.
There is no need to pull the rope briskly-- there is
no harsh resistance when pulling. Be aware that
this starting method is vastly different from (and
much easier than) what you may be used to.
7. When the engine starts, squeeze the throttle control
for 15 to 30 seconds. This will warm up the unit. The
EZ Fire™ Lever will click off automatically when
you squeeze the throttle control.
IF... The engine does not start, go back to step 3.
IF... The engine stops while you are squeezing the
throttle, go back to step 4.
IF... The engine stops before you squeeze the throttle
control, hold the throttle control and pull the starter
rope until the trimmer starts.
NOTE: If you are having trouble starting the unit or are
operating in extreme temperatures (below 40º F,
above 90º F), refer to the Troubleshooting section.

Operate this unit only in a
well- ventilated outdoor
