I took a chance on an Echo SRM 2010 2-stroke strimmer from a car boot sale. The seller was honest enough to tell me he had trouble getting it running. But for £10, I thought it was worth a gamble as a 'try and get it working' project.
Assuming it sparks, what things should I clean/renew, in logical order of likelihood of faultiness?
The seller hazarded a guess at the carb diaphragm, but I have no idea if his guess was worth paying attention to.
Many thanks for any help.

PS Finding a workshop manual online is proving harder than I'd hoped.
This site shows exploded views of various parts, often more help than a
manual IME.

Check fuel system for problems, dirt in fuel blocking carb jet,
blocking filter if there is one, or just old fuel.
