OPERATING THE TRIMMER

WARNING:
Gasoline and its vapors are highly flammable and
explosive. To prevent serious personal injury and
property damage, handle it with care. Keep away from
ignition sources and open flames, handle outdoors
only, do not smoke and wipe up spills immediately.
Always shut off engine before fueling. Never add fuel to
a machine with a running or hot engine. Move at least
30 ft. from refueling site before starting engine. Do not
smoke and stay away from open flames and sparks.
Never operate the unit without the fuel cap securely.
Failure to safely handle fuel could result in serious
personal injury.
• Engine housing can become hot during trimmer
operation. Do not rest or place your arm, hand, or
any body part against the engine housing. Extended
contact with the engine housing can result in burns or
other injuries.
• Always position the unit on the operator's right side.
The use of the unit on the operator's left side will
expose the user to hot surfaces and can result in
possible burn injury.
