STARTING AND STOPPING (Fig. 16 & 17)
NOTE: The unit is equipped with an automatic choke
feature. The starting instructions for this feature are
different from units with a manual choke. Be sure to read
and follow the starting instructions below.
WARNING
Never start or run the engine inside a closed or
poorly ventilated area; breathing exhaust fumes
can kill.
TO START A COLD ENGINE:
1. Lay trimmer on a flat, bare surface.
2. Push primer bulb (56) 8 to 10 times.
NOTE: Do not squeeze the throttle trigger (6) before
engine starts. Squeezing the throttle trigger at this time
will prevent the unit from starting.
3. Move the lever (59) to the "COLD START" position (58)
(Fig. 17).
4. Pull the starter rope until engine runs.
5. Allow the engine to warm up for 4-10 seconds.
6. Depress the interlock then squeeze and release the
throttle trigger. This allows the choke to automatically
set to the "WARM START" position (57). Your unit is
now ready for use.
NOTE: The lever will automatically set to the "WARM
START" position after the throttle trigger is squeezed for
the first time.
TO START A WARM ENGINE:
1. Lay trimmer on a flat, bare surface.
2. Choke lever should already be in the "WARM START"
position. If not, squeeze and release throttle trigger.
