OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR

MENT WITH TRIMMER HEAD
_l_ WARNING: Always wear eye
protection. Never lean over the trim-
mer head. Rocks or debris can rico-
chet or be thrown into eyes and face
and cause blindness or other serious
injury.
Before trimming, bring engine to a
speed sufficient to cut material to be
trimmed.
De net run the engine at a higher speed
than necessary. The cutting line will cut
efficiently when the engine _srun at less
than full throttle. At lower speeds, there
is less engine noise and vibration. Al-
ways release the throttle trigger and
allow the engine to return to idle speed
when not cutting.
CUTTING METHODS
_I_WARNING: Use minimum speed
and do not crowd the line when cutting
around hard objects (rock, gravel,
fence posts, etc.), which can damage
the trimmer head, become entangled
in the line, or be thrown causing a seri-
ous hazard.
• The tip of the line does the cutting.
You will achieve the best perform-
ance and minimum line wear by not
crowding the line into the cutting
area. The right and wrong ways are
shown below.
