Step By Step Instructions
1
Before you replace the lockout lever in your string trimmer, make sure the engine has cooled.

We recommend performing this procedure with little or no fuel in the tank.

Separate the two halves of the housing and you can remove the old block out lever if still intact.
5
Before you install the new lockout lever, confirm that the throttle cable is positioned in the housing and reattach the cable to the trigger if necessary.

If required, realign the spring in the housing.

Then reposition the trigger so the end of the spring inserts into the hole in the trigger.
8
Position the new lockout lever.

Now realign the two halves of the housing.
10
Rethread the screws to hold the assembly together.
11
