nor the throttle trigger come into
contact with any obstacle when
the engine starts.
WARNING
Never place the throttle trigger
into the high-speed position

USING THE PRODUCT
IMPORTANT
Cut only materials recommended by
the manufacturer. And use only for
tasks explained in the manual.
1. Grip the handles firmly with both
hands using your whole hand.
Place your feet slightly apart
(slightly further apart than the
width of your shoulders) so that
your weight is distributed evenly
across both legs, and always be
sure to maintain a steady, even
posture while working.
2. Maintain the speed of the engine
at the level required to perform
cutting work, and never raise the
speed of the engine above the
level necessary.
3. If the unit starts to shake or vi-
brate, turn off the engine and
check the whole unit. Do not use
it until the trouble has been prop-
erly corrected.
4. Keep all parts of your body away
from moving cutting attachment
and hot surfaces.
5. Never touch the muffler, spark
plug, or other metallic parts of
the engine while the engine is in
operation or immediately after
shutting down the engine. Doing
so could result in serious burns
or electrical shock.
