,I_,WARNING:
Always wear eye
protection, Always use hearing protec-
tion, Never lean over the trimmer head.
Rocks or debris can ricochet or be
thrown into eyes and face and cause
blindness or other serious injury.
When operating
unit, stand as shown
and check for the following:
• Wear eye protection
and heavy
clothing.
• Hold trigger handle with right hand
and assist handle with left hand.
• Keep unit below waist level.
• Out only from your left to your right to
ensure debris is thrown away from
you. Without bending over, keep line
near and parallel to the ground and
not crowded into material being cut.
Do not run the engine at a higher
speed than necessary.
The cutting
line will cut efficiently when the engine
is run at less than full throttle. At lower
speeds,
there is less engine noise and
vibration.
The cutting line will last
longer and will be less likely to "weld"
onto the spool.
Always release the throttle trigger and
allow the engine to return to idle
speed when not cutting.
To stop engine:
• Release the throttle trigger.
• Push and release the engine STOP
switch.
TRIMMER
LINE ADVANCE
The trimmer line will advance
approxi-
mately 2 inches (5 cm) each time the
bottom of the trimmer head is tapped
on the ground with the engine running
at full throttle.
The most efficient line length is the
maximum
length allowed by the line
limiter. Always keep the shield in place
when the tool is being operated.
To advance
line:
• Operate the engine at full throttle.
• Hold the trimmer head parallel to
and above the grassy area.
• Tap the bottom of the trimmer head
lightly on the ground one time. Ap-
proximately
2 inches (5 cm) of line
will be advanced
with each tap.
Always tap the trimmer head on a
grassy area. Tapping on surfaces such
as concrete or asphalt can cause ex-
cessive wear to the trimmer head.
If the line is worn down to 2 inches (5
cm) or less, more than one tap will be
required to obtain the most efficient line
length.
Ag&WARNING:
Use only 0.080 inch
(2 ram) diameter
round line. Other
sizes and shapes
of line will not ad-
vance properly and will result in im-
proper cutting head function
or can
cause serious
injury. Do not use other
materials such as wire, string, rope,
etc. Wire can break off during cutting
and become a dangerous
missile that
can cause serious
injury.
CUTTING
METHODS
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.
