CUTTING SAFETY  
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 ab-  
normal swellings. Prolonged use in cold  
weather has been linked to blood vessel dam-  
age 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 med-  
ical attention. An anti--vibration system does  
not guarantee the avoidance of these prob-  
lems. Users who operate power tools on a  
continual and regular basis must monitor  
closely their physical condition and the condi-  
tion of this tool.  
WARNING: Inspect the area before  
each use. Remove objects (rocks, broken  
glass, nails, wire, etc.) which can be thrown  
by or become entangled in line. Hard objects  
can damage the trimmer head and be thrown  
causing serious injury.  
S Use only for trimming, scalping, mowing, edg-  
ing and sweeping. Do not use for pruning or  
hedge trimming.  
S Keep firm footing and balance. Do not over-  
reach.  
S Keep all parts of your body away from muffler  
and spinning line. Keep engine below waist  
level. A hot muffler can cause serious burns.  
S Cut from your right to your left. Cutting on left  
side of the shield will throw debris away from  
the operator.  
S Use only in daylight or good artificial light.  
S Use only for jobs explained in this manual.  
TRANSPORTING AND STORAGE  
S Allow engine to cool; secure unit before stor-  
ing or transporting in vehicle.  
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 with a spark arresting screen. If you  
operate in a locale where 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

ATTACHING SHIELD  
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  
blade which cuts excess line to the proper  
length. The line limiter blade (on underside of  
shield) is sharp and can cut you.

CHOKE  
The ON/STOP switch is used to stop engine. To  
stop the engine, push and release the engine  
ON/STOP switch.  
The CHOKE helps to supply fuel to the engine  
to aid in cold starting. Activate the choke by  
moving the choke lever to the FULL CHOKE  
position. After the engine attempts to start, move  
the choke lever to the HALF CHOKE position.  
Once engine has started, move the choke lever  
to the OFF CHOKE position.  
PRIMER BULB  
The PRIMER BULB removes air from the car-  
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.  
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 gasoline and  
oil at a ratio of 40:1. A 40:1 ratio is obtained by  
mixing 3.2 ounces of oil with 1 gallon of  
unleaded gasoline. DO NOT USE automotive  
oil or boat oil. These oils will cause engine  
damage. When mixing fuel, follow instructions  
printed on container. Once oil is added to  
gasoline, shake container momentarily to  
assure that the fuel is thoroughly mixed. Always  
BEFORE STARTING ENGINE  
WARNING: Be sure to read the fuel  
information in the safety rules before you  
begin. If you do not understand the safety  
rules, do not attempt to fuel your unit. Call  
1-800-554-6723.  
FUELING ENGINE  
WARNING: Remove fuel cap slowly  
when refueling.  
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded read and follow the safety rules relating to fuel  
gasoline. Before operation, gasoline must be before fueling your unit.

6. Pull starter rope handle sharply until engine  
sounds as if it is trying to start, but do not  
pull rope more than 6 times.  
7. As soon as engine sounds as if it is trying to  
start, move choke lever to HALF CHOKE  
position.  
8. Pull starter rope sharply until engine runs,  
but no more than 6 pulls.  
NOTE: If the engine doesn’t start after 6  
pulls (at the HALF CHOKE position),  
move the choke lever to the FULL  
CHOKE position and press the primer  
bulb 6 times. Squeeze and hold the  
throttle trigger and pull the starter rope 2  
more times. Move the choke lever to the  
HALF CHOKE position and pull the start-  
er rope until the engine runs, but no more  
than 6 pulls. If the engine still doesn’t  
start, it is probably flooded. Proceed to  
STARTING A FLOODED ENGINE.  
9. Once the engine starts, allow it to run 10  
seconds, then move the choke lever to  
the OFF CHOKE position. Allow the unit  
to run for 30 more seconds at OFF  
CHOKE before releasing the throttle trig-  
ger.  
IMPORTANT  
Experience indicates that alcohol blended  
fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or metha-  
nol) can attract moisture which leads to separa-  
tion and formation of acids during storage. Acid-  
ic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine  
while in storage. To avoid engine problems,  
empty the fuel system before storage for 30  
days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the en-  
gine and let it run until the fuel lines and carbure-  
tor are empty. Use fresh fuel next season.  
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner prod-  
ucts in the fuel tank or permanent damage may  
occur. See the STORAGE section for addi-  
tional information.

CUTTING METHODS  
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS  
OPERATING POSITION  
WARNING: Use minimum speed  
and do not crowd the line when cutting around  
hard objects (rock, gravel, fence posts, etc.),  
which can damage the trimmer 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.  
ALWAYS WEAR:  
Eye Protection  
Long Pants  
Heavy Shoes  
Cut from your right to your left.  
Tip of the Line  
Does The Cutting  
Line Crowded Into  
Work Area  
WARNING: Always wear eye protec-  
tion. Never lean over the trimmer head.  
Rocks or debris can ricochet or be thrown into  
eyes and face and cause blindness or other  
serious injury.  
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.  
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.  
TWIST AND EDGE  
The Twist and Edge feature allows for easy  
edging of sidewalks, patios, driveways, etc.  
1. Pull the tab toward the engine.  
2. Twist the tube to the edging position; re-  
lease tab.  
Right  
Wrong  
S The line will easily remove grass and  
weeds from around walls, fences, trees and  
flower beds, but it also can cut the tender  
bark of trees or shrubs and scar fences. To  
help avoid damage especially to delicate  
vegetation or trees with tender bark,  
shorten line to 4--5 inches (10--13 cm) and  
use at less than full throttle.  
S For trimming or scalping, use less than full  
throttle to increase line life and decrease  
head wear, especially:  
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, use full throttle for  
a good clean job.  
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 cutting head advances line automati-  
cally. Do not tap head on the ground to ad-  
vance line. This may break parts and cause  
cutting head to malfunction.  
Trimming  
Upon unit start up, the line will advance auto-  
matically to the correct cutting path length.  
Always keep the shield in place when the tool  
is being operated.  
3 inches (8 cm)  
above ground  
WARNING: Use only 0.080” (2 mm)  
diameter round line. Other sizes and shapes SCALPING -- The scalping technique re-  
of line will not advance properly and will result in moves unwanted vegetationdown to the  
improper cutting head function or can cause se- ground. Hold the bottom of the trimmer head  
rious injury. Do not use other materials such as about 3 in. (8 cm) above the ground and at an  
wire, string, rope, etc. Wire can break off during angle. Allow the tip of the line to strike the  
cutting and become a dangerous missile that ground around trees, posts, monuments, etc.  
can cause serious injury.  
This technique increases line wear.

SWEEPING -- The fanning action of the rotat-  
ing line can be used for a quick and easy  
clean up. Keep the line parallel to and above  
the surfaces being swept and move the tool  
from side to side.  
Scalping  
Sweeping  
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.  
EDGING-- Adjust trimmer to the edging posi-  
tion (see TWIST AND EDGE section). Allow  
only the tip of the line to make contact. Do not  
force trimmer line into work area.
