8. Using the String Trimmer
WARNING
• To prevent serious personal injury, remove the
battery pack from the tool before servicing,
cleaning, changing attachments or removing
material from the unit.
• Check the cutting head (F), guard (L) and
front-assist handle (I) and replace any parts that
are cracked, warped, bent, or damaged in any
away.
• The line-cutting blade (M) on the edge of the
guard can dull over time. It is recommended that
you periodically sharpen it with a file or replace it with a new blade.
• Always wear gloves when mounting or replacing the guard or when sharpening or replacing
the line-cutting blade (M). Note the location of the blade on the guard and protect your hand
from injury.
• To avoid serious personal injury, wear goggles or safety glasses at all times when operating
this unit. Wear a face mask or dust mask in dusty locations. Wear proper clothing and
footwear during operation to reduce the risk of injury that may be caused by flying debris.
• Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all objects, such as rocks, broken glass,
nails, wire, or string 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 100 ft. (30.5 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.
