5.Pull the recoil starter until you hear the engine starting or trying to start. (Under full choke it may only run for 1 or 2 seconds).

6.Push the choke lever half way down and allow the motor to warm up. Restart if the motor stops.

7.Once the engine is fully warm push the choke down fully to the run position (warm start) and pull the throttle trigger and release. This will release the throttle lock.

8.To increase the speed of the cutting line, squeeze the safety lever (13) first, and then squeeze the throttle trigger.

To reduce the speed of the cutting line release the throttle lever.

Note. The cutting spool and line is directly connected to the motor and will always be rotating when the motor is operating.

Stopping the line trimmer

WARNING. The spool and line will rotate whenever the motor is operating.

1.Release the throttle trigger (8) and allow the engine to idle for a few moments.

2.Move the ignition switch (6) to the off position marked STOP.

3.The engine will now stop.

Running in the engine

1.During the first 2–3 hours of work, run the engine at a moderate RPM.

2.We advise you in any case not to maintain your engine at a high speed as the different components must settle with each other during the process of running in the engine.

3.It is at the end of the running in period that the engine will reach its maximum power.

4.After the first two hours of work, stop and make sure that all nuts and screws are securely fastened, and tighten them if necessary.

Use of the petrol line trimmer

This petrol line trimmer is only made to cut grass, small bushes, and shrubs.

Always use the shoulder strap (17), when using the tool to avoid serious personal injury.

Perform a few accelerations of the motor without reaching maximum speed and without working to make sure that everything is in good working order.

Start the engine only when you are close to the working area.

Place yourself in a well balanced position, stable on both feet.

Operating the line trimmer

IMPORTANT. Petrol line trimmers transmit vibrations to the operator during use. These vibrations can generate increased fatigue. For this reason, we recommend taking regular breaks during work. We also recommend taking a break after a few hours of work to rest the engine. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs during operation, turn the line trimmer off immediately and have the problem corrected.

1.Keep a firm grip on the trimmer with both hands while in operation. The trimmer should be held at a comfortable position with the rear handle about hip height.

2.Always operate the trimmer at full throttle. Cut tall grass from the top down to prevent grass from wrapping around the spool which may cause the trimmer to overheat.

Note. If grass becomes wrapped around the spool, stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and remove the grass.

Note. Prolonged cutting not at full throttle may result in oil dripping from the muffler.
