dllWARNING: Always wear eye
protection and hearing protection. Never lean over the trimmer head. Rocks or
debris can ricochet or be thrown into
eyes and face and cause blindness or other serious injury.
When operating unit, stand as shown and check for the following:
•Wear eye protection, hearing protec- tion and heavy clothing.
•Hold trigger handle with right hand and assist handle with left hand.
•Hold unit so that engine is below waist level.
•Cut only from your left to your right to ensure debris is thrown away from
you. Without bending over, keep line near and parallel to the ground and not crowded into material being cut. Do not run the engine at a higher speed than necessary. The cutting line will cut efficiently when the engine is run at less than full throttle. At lower speeds, there
is less engine noise and vibration. 12
