CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT
'_L, WARNING: Keep others away
when making idle speed adjustments.
The trimmer head will be spinning dur-
ing this procedure. Wear your protec-
tive equipment and observe all safety
precautions.
The carburetor has been carefully set
at the factory. Adjustments may be
necessary if you notice any of the fol-
lowing conditions:
• Engine will not idle when the throttle is
released.
Make adjustments with the unit sup-
ported so the cutting attachment is off
the ground and will not make contact
with any object. Hold the unit by hand
while running and making adjust-
ments. Keep all parts of your body
away from the cutting attachment and
muffler.
Idle Speed Adjustment
Allow engine to idle. Adjust speed until
engine runs without stalling (idle
speed too slow).
• Turn idle speed screw clockwise to
increase engine speed if engine
stalls or dies.
• Turn idle speed screw counterclock-
wise to decrease engine speed.
