OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR
USE WITH
TRIMMER
HEAD
_, WARNING:
Alwayswear
eye
protec-
tion,
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.
Before trimming,
bring engine to a speed suffi-
cient to cut material to be trimmed.
Do not run the engine at a higher speed than
necessary.
The cutting
tine will cut efficiently
when the engine is run at less than full throttle.
At lower speeds, there is less engine noise and
vibration. The cutting line will last longer and will
be less likely to "weld" onto the spool.
Always
release
the throttle
trigger and allow
the engine to return
to idle speed
when not
cutting.
To stop engine:
• Release
the throttle trigger.
• Move the ON/OFF
switch to the OFF posi-
tion.
