FUEL AND LUBRICATION

• FUEL

Use regular grade unleaded gasoline mixed with Talon 40:1 custom 2-cycle engine oil for best results.

WARNING: Never use straight gasoline in your unit. This will cause permanent engine damage and void the manufacturer's warranty for that product. Never use a fuel mixture that has been stored for over 90 days.

WARNING. If 2-cycle lubricant other than Talon Custom Lubricant is to be used, it must be a premium grade oil for 2-cycle air cooled engines mixed at a 40:1 ratio. Do not use any 2-cycle oil product with a recommended mixing ratio of 100:1. If insufficient lubrication is the cause of engine damage, it voids the manufacturer's engine warranty for that occurrence.

- MIXING FUEL

Mix fuel with Talon brand 2 cycle oil in an approved container. Use mixing table for correct ratio of fuel to oil. Shake container to ensure thorough mix.

WARNING: Lack of lubrication voids engine warranty. Gasoline and oil must be mixed at 40:1,

• FUEL AND LUBRICATION

40 Parts Gasoline to 1 part Lubricant

Gasoline and Oil Mix 40:1

• RECOMMENDED FUELS

Some conventional gasolines are being blended with oxygenates such as alcohol or an ether compound to meet clean air standards. Your Talon engine is designed to operate satisfactorily on any gasoline intended for automotive use including oxygenated gasolines.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• STARTING A COLD ENGINE

1. Place trimmer on firm flat surface

2. Place left foot on brace and stand behind rear handle of unit. Pull starter rope with right hand.

3. Move ignition switch to the "RUN (I)" position (Fig. 3A).

4. Your unit is designed with a 2 position choke: CLOSE * I- * and OPEN "R" Move choke lever (A) to CLOSE "I" position (Fig. 3B).

5. Prime the carburetor. Pump the prime bulb (B) 10 times (Fig. 3C).

6. Grip handle firmly - depress safety trigger (C) & throttle trigger (D) to the FULL THROTTLE position (Fig. 3E) (Fig. 3D).

7. Pull starter rope out a short way until resistance is felt (approximately 4") (Fig. 3E). A smooth rapid pull is required for a strong spark. Pull starter rope briskly 4 times.

8. Once engine starts allow to run for 10 seconds.

9. Move the choke to OPEN " " position (Fig. 3F).

10. If engine fails to start, repeat steps 1 through 8.

NOTE: If engine fails to start after repeated attempts, refer to Troubleshooting section.

NOTE: Always pull starter rope straight out. Pulling starter at an angle will cause rope to rub against the eyelet. This friction will cause the rope to fray and wear more quickly. Always hold starter handle when rope retracts. Never allow rope to snap back from extended position. This could cause rope to snag or fray and also damage the starter assembly.

Fig. 3E Fig. 3F

• STOPPING THE ENGINE

Emergency Stopping Procedure. When it is necessary to stop engine immediately, DEPRESS the switch to stop. Normal Stopping Method. For normal stopping, release trigger and allow engine to return to idle speed. Then

GB

DEPRESS and HOLD the "OFF" switch until the engine stops completely.

• STARTING A WARM ENGINE (Engine has been stopped for no more than 15-20 minutes)

1. Pull starter rope again. Engine should start with ONE or TWO pulls. If engine fails to start after 6 pulls, repeat steps 2 through 8.
2. If engine does not start, or starts and then stops after 5 rope pulls, follow procedure "STARTING A COLD ENGINE".

TRIMMING INSTRUCTIONS

• ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Before operating your unit, review ALL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS in this manual.
WARNING/CAUTION
- IF UNFAMILIAR WITH TRIMMING techniques, practice the procedures with ENGINE in "OFF" position.
- ALWAYS CLEAR WORK area of debris such as cans, bottles, rocks, etc. Striking objects can cause serious injury to operator or bystanders and also damage equipment. If an object is accidentally hit, immediately TURN ENGINE OFF and examine equipment. Never operate unit with damaged or defective equipment.
- ALWAYS TRIM OR CUT AT HIGH ENGINE SPEEDS. Do not run engine slowly at start or during trimming operations.
- DO NOT use equipment for purposes other than trimming shrubs, hedges, or bushes.
- NEVER raise stringhead above knee height during operation.
- DO NOT operate unit with other people or animals in the immediate vicinity.
- IF OPERATING UNIT ON A SLOPE, stand below the cutting attachment. DO NOT OPERATE on a slope or hilly incline if there is the slightest chance of slipping or losing your footing.

• TRIMMING INSTRUCTIONS

1. WORKING POSITION. Maintain proper footing and balance and do not overreach. Wear safety goggles, nonskid footwear and rubber gloves when trimming. Hold the tool firmly in both hands and turn the tool ON. Always hold the trimmer, as shown in the illustrations, with one hand on the body handle and one hand on the front handle. Never hold the tool by the blade guard.
2. TRIMMING NEW GROWTH. A wide, sweeping motion, feeding the blade teeth through the twigs is most effective. A slight downward tilt of the blade, in the direction of motion gives the best cutting. (Fig. 4A)
3. LEVEL HEDGES. To obtain exceptionally level hedges, a piece of string can be stretched along the length of the hedge as a guide.

CAUTION: Do not use the trimmer for cutting stems greater than 25mm. Use the trimmer only for cutting normal shrubbery found around houses and buildings.

1. SIDE-TRIMMING HEDGES. Hold the trimmer as shown and begin at the bottom and sweep up. (Fig. 4B)

MAINTENANCE

Your trimmer should be stopped, disconnected and oiled occasionally during use.

1. The cutting blades are made from high quality, hardened steel and with normal usage, they will not require resharpening. However, if you accidentally hit a wire fence, stones, glass or other hard objects, you may put a nick in the blade. There is no need to remove this nick as long as it does not interfere with the movement of the blade. If it does interfere, unplug unit and use a fine toothed file or sharpening stone to remove the nick.
2. If you drop the trimmer, carefully inspect it for damage. If the blade is bent, housing cracked, or handles broken or if you see any other condition that may affect the trimmer's operation contact an authorized service center for repairs before putting it back into use.
3. Fertilizers and other garden chemicals contain agents which greatly accelerate the corrosion of metals. Do not store the tool on or adjacent to fertilizers or chemicals.
4. With the unit unplugged, use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.

• BLADE LUBRICATION

WARNING: Before lubricating, be sure your unit is switched off and blades have come to a complete stop.

For easier operation and longer blade life, lubricate the blade before and after each use. Apply light machine oil along the edge of the blade bar. (Fig. 5)

• AIR FILTER

To Clean Air Filter:
1. Press down on lab (A) holding air filter cover in place, remove cover (B) and lift filter (C) from air box (Fig. 6).
2. Wash filter in soap and water. DO NOT USE GASOLINE!
3. Air dry filter.

GB

1. Reinstall filter.

CAUTION: NEVER operate unit without the air filter or dust and dirt will be sucked into the engine and damage it. The air filter must be kept clean. If it becomes damaged, install a new filter.
