it is a sears brushcutter model368795050 bushwacker,would like any owner manuel in upkeep, it was my fathers and has just been sitting in storage all these years.
This machine is most probably 2 stroke and should run well on a petroil mixture of 25 : 1 petrol or gasoline to oil ratio. This is easiest measured by mixing one litre of gasoline with 40 cc of 2 stroke motor oil. All 2 strokes will start using the following steps. Fill the fuel tank with the above mixture. Leave the ignition off, place the choke lever on full, set the throttle to the locked in start position, pull the starter cord 6 times, switch on the ignition, pull starter cord again and it should start up on the 2nd pull. If not leave the machine for 5 minutes, then try again. this will let fuel pass through the carburettor.

I tried the number you have listed which returned no results, but then I tried 358795050 and it worked. Manual is $4.95 +shg.
If any additional questions, there is a link to ask Sears a ? or an 800 #.
