Allow the engine to warm up before use. When cutting, always use the Hedgetrimmer on full
throttle.
Hot Engine Starting
• Set the ignition switch to the START ( I ) position (Fig 3 page 17).
• Check the clear return fuel line. If the line is empty, push the air purge bulb until fuel is
visible in the clear return fuel line.
• Move the choke lever to the START ( ) position, then back to the RUN ( )
position. This will set the throttle to the hot start position.
• Pull the starter rope until the engine starts, then squeeze the throttle briefly to release
the fast idle control and return the engine to idle.
• If the engine does not start after 5 pulls, use the Cold Start procedure.
Overchoking
Should the engine become flooded due to overchoking, turn the ignition switch o, unscrew the
spark plug, wipe it dry or replace.
Stopping the Engine
Set the engine to idling by releasing the throttle lever.
Set the ignition switch to the o position ‘’O’’ (STOP).
If the engine fails to stop, set the choke lever to the START position to stall the engine; do not use
the machine until the ignition switch is repaired.
