tighten securely.
ATTACHING EXTENSION CORD TO TRIMMER
An extension cord retainer is built into
the switch handle that helps prevent the tool from coming unplugged. To use this
feature, first overlap the pigtail cord with the extension cord and tie the two cords in a
knot as shown in
figure B
. Then, double the extension cord several inches from the
end, and hook the loop formed by doubling the cord over the post in the opening in the
back of the handle area as shown in
figure C
. Gently tug on the cord to insure that it is
firmly retained in the trimmerʼs handle.
