CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
A dirty air lter will cause starting difculty, loss of
performance, and shorten the life span of the engine.
Check the air lter monthly. For best performance, replace
the air lter at least once a year.
■ Stop the engine.
■ Remove the air filter cover by pushing down on the
latch with your thumb while gently pulling on the cover.
■ Remove the air filter.
■ Clean the foam filter element with warm soapy water.
Rinse and let dry.
NOTE: If the foam filter element is damaged, it should
be replaced.
■ Apply a light coat of engine oil to the foam filter element,
then squeeze it out.
■ Reinstall the air filter.
NOTE: Make sure the filter is seated properly inside
the cover. Installing the filter incorrectly will allow dirt to
enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
■ Replace the air filter cover by inserting the slot at the
bottom of the air box cover into the latch at the bottom
of the air box base; push the air box cover up until it
latches securely in place.
WARNING
Make sure the trimmer head stops rotating when you
release the trigger. Contact with a rotating trimmer head
could cause personal injury.
CHECKING THE FUEL CAP
WARNING
A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard and must be replaced
immediately.
The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable lter and a check
valve. A clogged fuel lter causes poor engine performance.
If performance improves when the fuel cap is loosened, the
valve may be faulty or the lter may be clogged. Replace
the fuel cap if necessary.

spark arrestor. Please note that it is suggested that the
spark arrestor should only be cleaned by a recognized
