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 abnor-  
mal swellings. Prolonged use in cold weather  
has been linked to blood vessel damage 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 medical attention. An  
anti--vibration system does not guarantee the  
avoidance of these problems. Users who oper-  
ate power tools on a continual and regular basis  
must monitor closely their physical condition  
and the condition of this tool.  
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 witha spark arresting screen. If you  
operatein alocalewhere 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  
50 hours of use, we recommend that your  
muffler beservicedor replacedby your autho-  
rized service dealer.

assembled and all fasteners are secure.  
Examine parts for damage. Do not use dam-  
aged parts.  
NOTE: If you need assistance or find parts  
missing or damaged, call 1-800-554-6723.  
It is normal for the fuel filter to rattle in the  
empty fuel tank.  
Finding fuel or oil residue on muffler is normal  
due to carburetor adjustments and testing  
done by the manufacturer.  
ATTACHING THE ASSIST HANDLE  
WARNING: The shield must be prop-  
erly installed. The shield provides partial protec-  
tion from the risk of thrown objects to the opera-  
tor and others and is equipped with a line limiter

ON/OFF SWITCH  
The ON/OFF switch is located on the trigger  
handle and is used to stop the engine. Move the  
switch to the OFF position to stop the engine.  
The START LEVER helps to supply fuel to the  
engine to aid in starting. Activate the starting  
system by moving the start lever to the START  
position. DO NOT squeeze the throttle trigger  
until the engine has started and runs. After the  
engine starts, allow the engine to warm--up 5  
seconds, then fully squeeze the throttle trigger  
to deactivate the starting system.  
PRIMER BULB  
The PRIMER BULB removes air from thecar-  
buretor and fuel lines and fills them with fuel.  
This allows you to start the engine with fewer  
pulls on the starter rope. Activate the primer  
bulb by pressing it and allowing it to return to  
its original form.  
DO NOT USE automotive oil or marine oil.  
These oils will cause engine damage. When  
mixing fuel, follow instructions printed on con-  
tainer. Once oil is added to gasoline, shake  
container momentarily to assure that the fuel  
is thoroughly mixed. Always read and follow  
the safety rules relating to fuel before fueling  
your unit.  
BEFORE STARTING ENGINE  
WARNING: Be sure to read the fuel  
information in the safety rules before you be-  
gin. If you do not understand the safety rules,  
do not attempt to fuel your unit. Call  
1-800-554-6723.  
FUELING ENGINE  
IMPORTANT  
Experience indicates that alcohol blended  
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or  
methanol) can attract moisture which leads to  
separation and formation of acids during stor-  
age. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system  
of an engine while in storage. To avoid engine  
problems, empty the fuel system before stor-  
age for 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank,  
start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines  
and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel next  
season. Never use engine or carburetor  
cleaner products in the fuel tank or permanent  
damage may occur.  
WARNING: Remove fuel cap slowly  
when refueling.  
HELPFUL TIP  
To obtain the correct oil mix  
ratio, pour 3.2 ounces of  
2-cycle synthetic oil into  
one gallon of fresh gas.  
This engine is certified to operate on un-  
leaded gasoline. Before operation, gasoline  
must be mixed with a good quality synthetic  
2-cycle air-cooled engine oil designed to be  
mixed at a ratio of 40:1. Poulan/WEED EATER  
brand synthetic oil is recommended. Mix gas-  
oline 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.  
See the STORAGE section for additional in-  
formation.

material being cut.  
STARTING A WARM ENGINE  
1. Move ON/OFF switch to the ON position.  
2. Squeeze and hold the throttle trigger.  
Keep throttle trigger fully squeezed until  
engine runs smoothly.  
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.  
3. Pull starter rope sharply while squeezing  
throttle trigger until engine runs.  
NOTE: Normally, the warm starting proce-  
dure can be used within 5--10 minutes after  
the unit is turned OFF. If the unit sits for more  
than 10 minutes without being ran, it will be  
necessary to start the unit by following the  
steps under STARTING A COLD ENGINE or  
following the starting instruction steps shown  
on the unit.  
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.

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 trimmer line will advance approximately 2  
inches (5 cm) each time the bottom of the  
trimmer head is tapped on the ground with the  
engine running at full throttle.  
The most efficient line length is the maximum  
length allowed by the line limiter. Always keep  
the shield in place when the tool is being oper-  
ated.  
Trimming  
To advance line:  
S Operate the engine at full throttle.  
S Hold the trimmer head parallel to andabove  
the grassy area.  
S Tap the bottom of the trimmer head lightly on  
the ground one time. Approximately 2 inches  
(5 cm) of line will be advanced with each tap.  
3 inches (8 cm)  
above ground  
Always tap the trimmer head on a grassy area.  
Tapping on surfaces such as concrete or as-  
phalt can cause excessive wear to the trimmer  
head.If the line is worn down to 2 inches (5 cm)  
or less, more than one tap will be required to ob-  
tain the most efficient line length.  
SCALPING -- The scalping technique removes  
unwanted vegetation down to the ground. Hold  
the bottom of the trimmer head about 3 in. (8  
cm) above the ground and at an angle. Allow the  
tip of the line to strike the ground around trees,  
posts, monuments, etc. This technique in-  
creases line wear.  
WARNING: Use only 0.095(2.4  
mm) diameter line. Other sizes of line will not  
advance properly and can cause serious  
injury. Do not use other materials such as  
wire, string, rope, etc. Wire can break off dur-  
ing cutting and become a dangerous missile  
that can cause serious injury.  
Scalping  
CUTTING METHODS  
WARNING: Use minimum speed  
and do not crowdthe linewhen cutting around  
hard objects (rock, gravel, fence posts, etc.),  
whichcan damage thetrimmer 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.  
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.  
Mowing  
Tip of the line  
does the cutting.  
Line crowded into  
work area.  
SWEEPING -- The fanning action of the rotat-  
ing line canbe used to blow away loose debris  
from an area. Keep the line parallel to and  
above the area surface and swing the tool  
from side to side.  
Right  
Wrong  
S The line will easily remove grass and  
weeds fromaround walls, fences, trees and  
flower beds, but it also can cut the tender  
bark of trees or shrubs and scar fences.  
S For trimming or scalping, use less than full  
throttle to increase line life and decrease  
head wear, especially:  
Sweeping  
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, usefull throttle for  
a good clean job.
