_WARNING: Always wear eye
protection. 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.
• Cut from your right to your left to en-
sure debris is thrown away from you.
Without bending over, keep line near
and parallel to the ground and not
crowded into material being cut.
ADVANCING THE CUTTING LINE
Advance line by tapping bottom of cut-
ting head lightly on the ground while
unit is running at full speed. A metal
blade attached to the shield will cut the
line to the proper length.
TRIMMING
Hold the bottom of the trimmer head
about 3 in. (8 cm) above the ground
and at an angle. Allow only the tip of
the line to make contact. Do not force
trimmer line into work area.

Your trimmer is ideal for mowing in
places conventional lawn mowers can-
not reach. In the mowing position,
keep the line parallel to the ground.
Avoid pressing the head into the
ground as this can scalp the ground
and damage the tool.
