Warning! Fuel vapors are extremely flammable and
may cause fire and/or
explosion. Never test for ignition spark by grounding
spark plug near cylinder
plug hole, otherwise serious personal injury may result.
Storage
Warning! During operation the muffler and surrounding
cover become hot.
Always keep exhaust area clear of flammable debris
during transportation or when storing, otherwise
serious personal injury may result.
Long Term Storage (over 30 days)
Do not store your hedge trimmer for a prolonged period of time
(30 days or longer) without performing protective storage
maintenance which includes the following:
● Store hedge trimmer in a dry, dust free place, out of the
reach of children.
Warning! Do not store in enclosure where fuel fumes
may accumulate or reach an open flame or spark,
otherwise serious personal injury may result.
● Place the ignition switch in the "STOP" position.
● Remove accumulation of grease, oil, dirt and debris from
exterior of hedge trimmer.
● Perform all periodic lubrication and services that are
required.
● Apply clean oil to the entire length of the blade. Be certain
the blade bolts are
lubricated.
● Install blade cover on blades.
● Tighten all the screws and nuts.
● Drain the fuel tank completely and pull the recoil starter
handle several times to
remove fuel from the carburetor.
● Remove the spark plug and pour 7cc (1/4 oz.) of fresh, clean,
two-stroke engine oil
into the cylinder through the spark plug hole.
● Place a clean cloth over the spark plug hole.
● Pull the recoil starter handle 2-3 times to distribute the oil
inside the engine.
● Observe the piston location through the spark plug hole. Pull
the recoil handle slowly
until the piston reaches the top of its travel and leave it there.
● Install the spark plug (do not connect ignition cable).
Important: Always store and transport hedge trimmers in a
stable, horizontal position.
Support gear case and cutting blades to prevent excessive
flexing, which may cause damage to these components.
Always install blade cover when transporting or storing hedge
trimmer.
