Figure 25
The engine must return to idle speed whenever the throttle lever is released. Idle
speed is adjustable, and must be set low enough to permit the engine clutch to
disengage the cutters.
Adjusting Engine Idle
WARNING!
The cutters must NEVER engage at engine idle speeds! If the idle speed cannot be ad-
justed by the above procedure, return the trimmer to your Shindaiwa dealer for inspection.
Idle Speed Adjustment
Start the engine, and then allow it to idle 2–3 minutes until warm.1.
If the cutters move when the engine is at idle, reduce idle speed by turning the 2.
idle adjustment screw counterclockwise.
If a tachometer is available, adjust idle. Check Specifications page for correct 3.

Long Term Storage
Whenever the unit will not be used for 30
days or longer, use the following proce-
dures to prepare it for storage:
Clean external parts thoroughly and
apply a light coating of oil to all metal
surfaces.
Drain all the fuel from the carburetor
and the fuel tank.
To do so:
Prime the primer bulb until no more 1.
fuel is passing through.
Start and run the engine until it stops 2.
running.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 until the engine 3.
will no longer start.
Remove the spark plug and pour
about 1/4 oz. of engine oil into the
cylinder through the spark plug hole.
Slowly pull the recoil starter 2 or
3 times so oil will evenly coat the
interior of the engine. Reinstall the
spark plug.
Before storing the unit, repair or
replace any worn or damaged parts.
Remove the air cleaner element
from the carburetor and clean it thor-
oughly with soap and water. Let dry
and reassemble the element.
Store the unit in a clean, dust-free
area.
CAUTION!
Gasoline stored in the carburetor
for extended periods can cause
hard starting, and could also lead to
increased service and maintenance
costs.
IMPORTANT!
All stored fuels should be stabilized with
a fuel stabilizer such as STA-BIL™.
NOTE:
Damage resulting from stale or contami-
nated fuel is not covered by the Shindaiwa
warranty policy.
