McCulloch MH542P hedge trimmer trouble starting? ?

When the unit is started with the choke in the correct position it runs for about 6-10 seconds then cuts out.
The moment I try to adjust the choke lever or the triger lever to use the machine it cuts out.Have tried a new spark plug, cleaned the fuel strainer,air filter and have tried different mixture strengths.Any suggestions?

Probably carb needs a new diaphragm.
