To turn the tool off:
1. Release the control trigger and the
tool will turn off. The thumb switch wilt
return to the rear position to prevent
accidental re-starting of the tool.
The power handle can be operated
in two positions, normal and inverted,
depending on the work you are trying
to do. Depending on work position,
both thumb switch or control trigger
wilt release safety or activate tool, so it
is not necessary to contort your hand
when using the power handle in the
inverted position. (see figure 9)

OVERLOAD
PROTECTION
The line trimmer attachment
incorporates a fuse which will protect
the line trimmer in the event of an
overload or prolonged stall. The fuse
will cause the tool to stop operating
if an overload condition exists. If the
line trimmer stalls or stops turning
unexpectedly, release the control
trigger immediately. If, after verifying
that the line head turns freely, the line
trimmer does not restart, check the
fuse to see if it needs replacing. See
the section on replacing the fuse. Only
replace the fuse with the same type 15
Amp fuse.
LINE TRIMMER/EDGER
OPERATION
ATTACH LINE GUARD PRIOR TO
USE - Attach the line guard to the
trimmer housing by first aligning both
of the side tabs with the slots in the
trimmer housing. Next, press firmly on
the rear of the guard until it is firmly
seated against the trimmer housing.
Important
- Rotate the edging wheel
until the arrow on the wheel lines up
exactly with the arrow on the underside
of the line guard.
Now, insert the provided screw through
the hole in the edging wheel and into
the exposed hole in the black housing.
Tighten in place with a screwdriver.
(see figure 10) When the screw is
properly installed and tightened, the
head of the screw will be recessed and
the edging wheel should rotate freely.
