MAINTENANCE
FUEL CAP
WARNING:
Check for fuel leaks. A leaking fuel cap is a fire hazard
and must be replaced immediately. If you find any leaks,
correct the problem before using the product. Failure
to do so could result in a fire that could cause serious
personal injury.
The fuel cap contains a non-serviceable filter and a check
valve. A clogged fuel filter will cause poor engine perfor-
mance. If performance improves when the fuel cap is loos-
ened, check valve may be faulty or filter clogged. Replace
fuel cap if required.
SPARK PLUG
This engine uses a Champion RCJ-6Y or NGK BPMR7A
spark plug with .025 in. electrode gap. Use an exact replace-
ment and replace annually.
STORING THE TRIMMER
 Clean all foreign material from the trimmer. Store it in a
well-ventilated place that is inaccessible to children. Keep
away from corrosive agents such as garden chemicals
and de-icing salts.
 Abide by all Federal and local regulations for the safe
storage and handling of gasoline.
WHEN STORING 1 MONTH OR LONGER:

Drain all fuel from tank into a container approved for
gasoline. Run engine until it stops.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem Possible Cause Solution
Engine will not start. No spark.
No fuel.
Engine is flooded.
Starter rope pulls harder now than
when new.
Check spark. Remove spark plug. Re-
attach the spark plug cap and lay spark
plug on metal cylinder. Pull the starter
rope and watch for spark at spark plug
tip. If there is no spark, repeat test with
a new spark plug.
Push primer bulb until bulb is full of
fuel. If bulb does not fill, primary fuel
delivery system is blocked. Contact
a servicing dealer. If primer bulb fills,
engine may be flooded, proceed to
next item.
Remove spark plug, turn trimmer so
spark plug hole is aimed at the ground.
Rotate the choke dial to “RUN” posi-
tion and pull starter cord 10 to 15
times. This will clear excess fuel from
engine. Clean and reinstall spark plug.
Pull starter three times with choke dial
at “RUN”. If engine does not start, ro-
tate choke dial to “FULL CHOKE” posi-
tion and repeat normal starting proce-
dure. If engine still fails to start, repeat
procedure with a new spark plug.
