1. Mix gas with oil. Fill fuel tank with fuel/oil mixture.
See Oil and Fuel Mixing Instructions.
NOTE: There is no need to turn the unit on. The On/Off
Stop Control is in the ON ( I ) position at all times.
2. 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. 7). 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.
3. Push the blue EZ-Start™ lever towards the primer
bulb until it clicks and locks into place (Fig. 7).
4. Crouch in the starting position and do not squeeze
the throttle control (Fig. 8). 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 Spring Assist Starting™, 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.
5. When the engine starts, squeeze the throttle control
for 15 to 30 seconds. This will warm up the unit. The
blue EZ-Start™ lever will click off automatically
when you squeeze the throttle control.
IF...The engine does not start, go back to step 2.
IF...The engine stops while you are squeezing the
throttle, go back to step 3.
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.
