•Use only as much throttle as is needed to do the job. Excessive engine speed is unnecessary.
•Avoid cutting thick branches, for which will damage the blades and shorten the life of drive systems.
•Tilting the trimmer 5 to 10° to the cutting object will make the job easy and bring a good result.
•Always keep your body to the carburetor side of your trimmer, never on the muffler side.
•When a new machine is first operated, in the first few minutes grease may come out of the gear case. But, since this is excess grease, there is no cause for alarm. Just wipe it off with the engine stopped for next use.
