Removing the Stone Guard Flap - SPRINT
and PRO
NOTE: We turned the Trimmer on its side to take the photos in this section. To do so, we removed gas and oil from the machine. You
can access the underside of the Trimmer without having to drain the oil by tilting back on its handlebar. Tilting back with a full
Tank will probably cause the gas to leak and so draining the gas is still a good idea.
