The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable filter and a check
valve. A clogged fuel filter will cause poor engine perfor-
mance. If performance improves when the fuel cap is
loosened, the check valve may be faulty or the filter
clogged. Replace fuel cap if required.
SPARKING PLUG
This engine uses a Champion RCJ-6Y with 0.63mm
(0.025 in.) electrode gap. Use an exact replacement and
replace annually.
STORAGE (1MONTH OR LONGER)
1 Drain all fuel from tank into a container approved for
petrol. Run engine until it stops.
2 Clean all foreign material from the trimmer. Store it in a
well-ventilated place that is inaccessible to children.
Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden
chemicals and de-icing salts.
3 Abide by all regulations for the safe storage and han-
dling of petrol. Excess fuel should be used up in other
2-cycle engine-powered equipment.
