Background

The Craftsman Trimmer 358.795781, a product of Sears, is a hedge trimmer characterized by a 23cc/1.4 cu. in. 2-cycle gasoline engine and a 19-inch blade. Manufactured in 2005, this trimmer uses an air-cooled engine that runs on a mixture of unleaded gasoline and synthetic 2-cycle oil at a ratio of 40:1.

In terms of operation, the trimmer employs a choke lever, primer bulb, and pull rope starter for ignition. The speed of the engine is regulated using a throttle trigger, and for effective hedge trimming, a minimum throttle speed is recommended. The Craftsman Trimmer 358.795781 is not intended for cutting branches with a diameter larger than 7/16 inches. It's also worth mentioning that the fuel tank needs to be emptied if the trimmer is to be stored for over 30 days to avoid the formation of gum deposits from stale fuel.
