immediately blip the throttle trigger,
which should release the starting throttle
and allow the engine to slow down to
idle.
With the engine running only at idle,
attach the power tool to the spring hook
of your harness if you are using one (see
appropriate chapter of this manual).
WARNING
Your power tool is a one-person
machine. Do not allow other persons in
the general work area, even when
starting.
See also the safety precautions on
Starting in the instruction manual of your

To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, hold and guide the machine at a
shallow angle. If the machine is held at
too steep an angle, it tends to push back
toward the operator.
WARNING

the risk of injury through loss of control
of the power tool.

WARNING
Never attempt to operate your power
tool with one hand. Loss of control of the
power tool may result in serious or fatal
injury.
WARNING
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Special care
must be taken in slippery conditions (wet
ground, snow) and in difficult, overgrown
terrain. Watch for hidden obstacles such
as tree stumps, roots and ditches to
avoid stumbling. Be extremely cautious
when working on slopes or uneven
ground.
Operate the power tool only at a normal
walking pace.
Working Conditions
Start and operate your power tool only
outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
Operate it under good visibility and
daylight conditions only. Work carefully.
WARNING
As soon as the engine is
running, this product gen-
erates toxic exhaust
fumes containing chemi-
cals, such as unburned
hydrocarbons (including
benzene) and carbon
monoxide, that are
known to cause respira-
tory problems, cancer,
birth defects, or other
reproductive harm. Some
of the gases (e.g. carbon
monoxide) may be color-
less and odorless. To
reduce the risk of serious
or fatal injury/illness from
inhaling toxic fumes,
never run the machine
indoors or in poorly venti-
lated locations.
