TRIMMING INSTRUCTIONS

ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Before operating your unit, review ALL SAFETY PRECAU- TIONS in this manual.

WARNING / CAUTION

IF UNFAMILIAR WITH TRIMMING techniques, prac- tice the procedures with ENGINE in “OFF” position.

ALWAYS CLEAR WORK area of debris such as cans, bottles, rocks, etc. Striking objects can cause serious injury to operator or bystanders and also damage equipment. If an object is accidentally hit, immediately TURN ENGINE OFF and examine equipment. Never operate unit with damaged or defective equipment.

ALWAYS TRIM OR CUT AT HIGH ENGINE SPEEDS. Do not run engine slowly at start or during trimming operations.

DO NOT use equipment for purposes other than trim- ming.

DO NOT operate unit with other people or animals in the immediate vicinity. Allow a minimum of 50 feet (15 meters) between operator and other people and ani- mals when trimming.

TRIMMING INSTRUCTIONS

1.WORKING POSITION. Maintain proper footing and balance and do not overreach. Wear safety goggles, non-skid footwear and gloves when trimming. Hold the tool firmly in both hands and turn the tool ON. Always hold the trimmer, as shown in the illustrations, with one hand on the body handle and one hand on the front handle. Never hold the tool by the blade guard.

2.TRIMMING NEW GROWTH. A wide, sweeping motion, feeding the blade teeth through the twigs is most effective. A slight downward tilt of the blade, in the direction of motion gives the best cutting. (Fig. 11)

3.LEVEL HEDGES. To obtain exceptionally level hedges, a piece of string can be stretched along the length of the hedge as a guide.

CAUTION: Do not use the trim- mer for cutting stems

greater than 3/4”. Use the trimmer only for cut- ting normal shrubbery found around houses and buildings.
