USING THE LINE TRIMMER
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all
objects, such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or lien
that can be thrown or become entangled in the cutting
attachment. Clear the area of children, bystanders,
and pets. At a minimum, keep all children, bystanders
and pets at least 15 m away; there still may be risk to
bystanders from thrown objects. Bystanders should be
encouraged to wear eye protection. If you are approached,
stop the motor and cutting attachment immediately.
Before each use check for damaged/worn parts
Check the trimmer head, guard, shoulder strap, shoulder
strap loop, and front handle. Replace any parts that are
cracked, warped, bent, or damaged in any way.
The line-cutting blade on the edge of the guard can dull
over time. It is recommended that you periodically sharp-
en it with a file or replace it with a new blade.
WARNING: Always wear gloves when mounting or
replacing the guard or when sharpening or replacing
the line-cutting blade. Note the location of the blade
on the guard and protect your hands from injury.
