OPERATING THE TRIMMER

See Figure 15.

GASOLINE WARNING:

Always position the unit on the operator's right side. The use of the unit on the operator's left side will expose the user to hot surfaces and can result in possible burn injury.

FILLING TANK WARNING:

To avoid burns from hot surfaces, never operate unit with the bottom of the engine above waist level.

Hold the trimmer with the right hand on the rear handle and the left hand on the front handle. Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation.Trimmer should be held at a comfortable position with the rear handle about hip height.

Always operate trimmer at full throttle. Cut tall grass from the top down.This will prevent grass from wrapping around the shaft housing and string head which may cause dam- age from overheating. If grass becomes wrapped around the string head, STOP THE ENGINE, disconnect the spark plug wire, and remove the grass. Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result in oil dripping from the muffler.
