STARTING AND STOPPING Check before starting Cold engine Primer bulb: Press the primer bulb 10 times until fuel begins to fill the bulb. The primer bulb need not be completely filled. S Inspect the unit before each use. Replace damaged parts. Check for fuel leaks. Make sure all fasteners are in place and secure. Make sure the cutting attachment is properly installed and securely fastened. Use only flexible, nonmetallic line recommended by the manufacturer. Never use, for example, wire or wire rope, which can break off and become a dangerous projectile. S Check that the trimmer head and trimmer guard are not damaged or cracked. Replace the trimmer head or trimmer guard if they have been exposed to impact or are cracked. Choke: Move the blue engine choke lever to the closed position. S Never use the machine without a guard nor with a defective guard. Starting and stopping Starting Hold the body of the machine on the ground using your left hand (CAUTION! Not with your foot!). Firmly grip the starter rope handle with your right hand. DO NOT squeeze throttle trigger.

Repeat pulling the cord until the engine attempts to start. Move the blue engine choke lever to the ½ position. Pull starter rope until engine runs. Move the blue en- gine choke lever to the opened position. WARNING: The complete clutch, clutch cover, and shaft must be fitted before the machine is started, otherwise parts could come loose and cause personal injury. Always move the machine away from the refueling area before starting. Place the machine on a flat surface. Ensure the cutting attachment cannot come into contact with any object. Make sure no unauthorized persons are in the working area, otherwise there is a risk of serious personal injury. The safety distance is 50 feet (15 meters). NOTE: If engine dies, return blue engine choke lever to the closed position and repeat starting steps. CAUTION! Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and do not let go of the starter handle when the cord is fully extended. This can damage the machine. 545196750 Rev. 3 2/17/09 English--- 15
