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, check for the following:
Wear eye protection and heavy clothing. Hold front
handle with one hand and auxiliary handle with
the other hand. Keep unit below waist level. Work
only from your right to your left to ensure debris is
thrown away from you. Without bending over, keep
line near and parallel to the ground (perpendicular

cut.
WARNING: Make sure that line is fed out
before operation. Make sure motor is up
to full speed before trimming.

mm) diameter cutting line.
Other sizes of

Wire can break off during cutting and become a
dangerous projectile that can cause serious injury.
