CLEANING
Use a small brush to clean off the outside of the unit. Do
not use strong detergents. Household cleaners that
contain aromatic oils such as pine and lemon, and
solvents such as kerosene, can damage plastic housing
or handle. Wipe off any moisture with a soft cloth.
STORAGE
• Never store the unit with fuel in the tank where fumes
may reach an open flame or spark.
• Allow the engine to cool before storing.
• Lock up the unit to prevent unauthorized use or damage.
• Store the unit in a dry, well-ventilated area.
• Store the unit out of the reach of children.
NOTE: Remove the spark plug and drain all of the oil
from the cylinder before attempting to start the
trimmer after storage.
4. Change the oil, referring to Changing the Oil.
Dispose of the old oil in accordance to Federal, State
and Local regulations.
5. Thoroughly clean the unit and inspect for any loose
or damaged parts. Repair or replace damaged parts
and tighten loose screws, nuts or bolts. The unit is
ready for storage.
TRANSPORTING
• Allow the engine to cool before transporting.
• Secure the unit while transporting.
• Drain the gas tank before transporting.

LONG TERM STORAGE
1. Drain all gasoline from the gas tank into a container.
Do not use gas that has been stored for more than 60
days. Dispose of the old gasoline in accordance to
Federal, State, and Local regulations.
2. Start the engine and allow it to run until it stalls. This
ensures that all gasoline has been drained from the
carburetor.

put 1 oz. (30 ml) of high quality motor oil into the
cylinder. Pull the starter rope slowly to distribute the
oil. Reinstall the spark plug.
