Adjusting the carburettor
The carburettor is set at the factory for optimum performance. Take your trimmer to an authorised service
centre if any further adjustment is necessary.
Other information
 Clean the outside of the machine.
 Drain the fuel from the fuel tank.
 Start the engine after draining the fuel.
 Allow the engine to idle until it stops. This will drain the fuel out of the carburettor.
 Allow the engine to cool for about five minutes.
 Remove the spark plug with a spark plug spanner.
 Pour a teaspoon of pure 2-stroke oil into the combustion chamber. Pull the starter cord slowly a few
times to lubricate the inner components. Replace the spark plug.
 Store the machine in a cool, dry place at a safe distance from sources of sparks such as oil burners
and hot water heaters etc.
Using the trimmer after it has been stored away
 Remove the spark plug.
 Pull the starter cord briskly to remove excess oil from the combustion chamber.
 Clean and check the electrode gap on the spark plug, or replace with a new one with the correct
gap.
 Get the machine ready for use.
 Fill the petrol tank with the correct mixture of oil and petrol. See section on fuel and lubrication.
