SPARK PLUG
Change your spark plug each year to
make your engine start easier and run
better. Set spark plug gap according to
engine manual specifications.
CLEANING
IMPORTANT: For best performance,
keep trimmer free of built-up grass and
trash. Clean the underside of your trimmer
after each use.
CAUTION: Disconnect spark plug wire
from spark plug and place wire where it
cannot come in contact with spark plug.
• Turn trimmer on its side. Make sure air
filter and carburetor are up. Clean the
underside of your trimmer by scraping
to remove build-up of grass and trash.
• Clean engine often to keep trash from
accumulating. A clogged engine runs
hotter and shortens engine life.
• Keep finished surfaces and wheels free
of all gasoline, oil, etc.
• We do not recommend using a garden
hose to clean trimmer unless the elec tri-
cal system, muffler, air filter and car-
buretor are covered to keep water out.
Water in engine can result in shortened
engine life.
SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS
CAUTION: Before performing any
service and adjustments:
1. Stop engine.
2. Make sure the rotating lines and all mov-
ing parts have completely stopped.
3. Disconnect spark plug wire from spark
plug and place where it cannot come
in contact with the spark plug.
