■ RECOMMENDED OIL TYPE Using the proper type and weight of oil in the crankcase is extremely important. Check the oil before each use and change the oil regularly. Failure to use the correct oil, or using dirty oil, can cause premature engine wear and failure.
16 Old fuel is usually the main reason for the unit not running properly. Be sure to use fresh, clean, unleaded fuel. Alcohol-blended fuel absorbs moisture (water). As little as 1% moisture in the fuel can cause it to separate and form acids when stored.
■ STARTING ENGINE The cutting head will start rotating upon the engine starts. 1. Check the oil level in crankcase (See ■ OIL LEVEL at p.22) . 2. Fill the fuel tank with fresh, clean, unleaded fuel (See p.16) up to 80% of the full capacity. 3 . Rest the unit on a flat, firm place.

22 ■ OIL LEVEL To prevent extensive engine wear and damage to the unit, always maintain the proper oil level in the crankcase. Never operate the unit with the oil level below the bottom of the dipstick. 1. Make sure the engine is stopped and is cool so the oil has had times to drain into the crankcase.
