THROTTLE TRIGGER & LOCKOUT (Fig. 19 )

The throttle tdggercontrols engine speed. At idle, a cen- trifugal clutch automatically disengages the blade/dual line head from the engine. The blade/dual line head will coast to a stop.

The throttle lockout must be depressed before the throttle tdgger can be depressed. Also, the throttle lock- out prevents unintentional activation of the throttle trig- ger.
