Simplified Starting Procedure

• To get started, users simply pump the fuel primer, set the choke, and pull the starter cord. The built-in stop switch allows the user to turn off the engine with a simple press of the button. When the engine is off, the throttle lock automatically returns to the "start" setting. The tool will be ready to start again when the user is ready to get back to work.

Throttle Trigger Interlock

• This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.

Upright Translucent Fuel Tank

• Easily check the fuel level before starting work. If fuel is needed, the upright position makes the tank easier to fill.
