ATTACHING THE SHIELD
_WARNING: The shield must be
properly installed. If shield is not prop-
erly installed, damage to unit (includ-
ing motor failure) will result. The shield
provides partial protection to the oper-
ator and others from the risk of thrown
objects. Your unit is equipped with a
line limiter blade, which cuts excess
line to the proper length while running.
The line limiter blade (on underside of
shield) is sharp and can cut you.
NOTE: Edge guide must be posi-
tioned on shield prior to installation on
motor housing (see following illustra-
tion).

Shield
1. Hold shield at angle to the trimmer
motor housing. Align the front
locking tab of the shield with the
front notch of the motor housing
(see illustration below).
2. Move shield toward motor hous-
ing, ensuring trimmer head passes
through opening in shield without
catching on shield locking tabs.
3. Tilt front of the shield towards front
notch of motor housing. Push
front locking tab of the shield into
the front notch of the motor hous-
ing. An audible snap must be
heard. Ensure the cutting head re-
mains free to rotate and the line is
not caught between the shield and
the motor housing.
4. Push back of the shield toward the
motor housing as illustrated until
the rear locking tabs snap secure-
ly into the rear notches. Make
sure the shield is securely at-
tached to the motor housing and is
