Use the shoulder strap and keep a

firm grip on the unit with both hands. A properly adjusted shoulder strap will support the weight of the unit, freeing your arms and hands to con- trol and guide the cutting motion.

Keep feet comfortably spread apart

and braced for a possible sudden, rapid thrust of unit. Do not overreach. Keep firm footing and balance.

Keep blade below waist level. It will be easier to maintain control of unit.

Do not raise the engine above your waist as the blade can come danger- ously close to your body.

Do not swing the unit with such force that you are in danger of losing your balance.

Bring the powerhead engine to cutting speed before entering the material to be cut.

If the blade does not turn when you squeeze the throttle trigger of the pow- erhead, make sure the attachment is

fully inserted into the coupler.

Always release the throttle trigger and allow powerhead engine to return to idle speed when not cutting. The blade should not turn while the engine is run- ning at idle. If the blade turns at idle, do not use your unit. Refer to the CAR- BURETOR ADJUSTMENT section of the

powerhead manual or contact your Sears Service Center.

Maintain good firm footing while us- ing the unit. Do this by planting feet firmly in a comfortable apart position.

Cut while swinging the upper part of your body from left to right.

As you move forward to the next area to cut, be sure to maintain your

balance, and footing.
