trigger handle and the left hand on the left handle.
Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation. Trimmer
should be held at a comfortable position with the trigger
handle about hip height.
Always operate trimmer at full throttle. Cut tall grass
from the top down. This will prevent grass from wrapping
around the shaft housing and string head which may
cause damage from overheating. If grass becomes
wrapped around the string head, stop the engine,
disconnect the spark plug wire, and remove the grass.
Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result in lubricant
dripping from the silencer.
