STARTING THE MACHINE

Move at least 3 meters away from the place of refuelling. Place the hedge trimmer

on a clean area of ground. Make sure that the cutting blades do not come into

Cold starting: (When the engine is cold or it has been stopped for more than

5 minutes or when fuel is added to the engine.)

4.Hold the hedge trimmer down firmly to avoid loss of control while cranking the engine. Failure to do so may cause serious injury and/or property damage due to falling or contact with the cutting blade.

5.Pull the starter handle slowly for 10 to 15 cm until you feel the resistance.

6.Pull the starter handle strongly with feeling the resistance and start the engine.

7.When the engine starts or pop-up and stop, return the choke lever (4) to “”.

8.Run the engine for approximately one minute at a moderate speed before accelerating to full throttle.

Note: • If the starter handle is pulled repeatedly when the choke lever remains at “ ” position, the engine will not start easily due to excessive fuel intake.

•In case of excessive fuel intake, remove the spark plug and pull the starter handle slowly to remove excess fuel. Also, dry the electrode section of the spark plug.

Hot starting: (Restarting immediately after the engine has stopped.) When

restarting a hot engine, first try the above procedure: 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 with the choke lever (4) to “”. If the engine does not start, repeat above steps 1-8.

Note: Do not pull the starter rope to its full extension. Do not allow the starter grip to be retracted without control. Ensure that it is retracted slowly.

STOPPING THE MACHINE

1.Release the throttle lever completely.

2.Push the I-O switch (1) to “O” position. The engine will slow down and stop.
