  If your MTD Trimmer engine won't start, first ensure the On/Off control is in the ON position. Check if the fuel tank is empty and refill it with properly mixed fuel if needed. Make sure you press the primer bulb fully and slowly 10 times. If the engine is flooded, use the starting procedure with the choke lever in the RUN position. Also, old or improperly mixed fuel can be a culprit, so drain the gas tank and add fresh fuel mixture. Finally, a fouled spark plug or a plugged spark arrestor can prevent starting; replace or clean them as necessary.

  If your MTD Trimmer engine lacks power or stalls when cutting, the issue might stem from several causes. Start by ensuring you're using fresh, properly mixed fuel; old fuel can cause problems, so drain the tank and refill it. A fouled spark plug could also be the culprit, so try replacing or cleaning it. Additionally, a plugged spark arrestor can restrict engine performance; clean or replace it to resolve the issue. For improper carburetor adjustment, it is recommended to take the trimmer to an authorized service dealer for adjustment.

Why MTD Yard Machines Y700 Trimmer cutting attachment will not advance line?

  If the cutting attachment on your MTD Trimmer won't advance the line, first stop the engine and clean the cutting attachment if it's bound with grass. If the cutting attachment is out of line, refill it with new line. If the inner reel is bound up, replace it. A dirty cutting head can also cause problems, so clean the inner reel and outer spool. If the line is welded, disassemble, remove the welded section, and rewind it. If the line is twisted when refilled, disassemble and rewind the line. Also, ensure enough line is exposed by pushing the bump knob and pulling out the line until 4 inches (102 mm) of line is outside of the cutting attachment.
