Use only authorized Shindaiwa parts
and accessories with your Shindaiwa
trimmer. Do not make modifications to
the unit without the written approval of
Shindaiwa, Inc.
ALWAYS make sure the trimmer head
is properly installed and firmly tightened
before operation.
NEVER use a cracked, warped, or worn
out trimmer head: replace it with a ser-
viceable one.
ALWAYS make sure the trimmer head
fits properly into the appropriate holder.
If a properly installed head vibrates,
replace it with new one and recheck its
operation.
Trimming and Mowing Grass
T195s
Figure 17
Hold the grass trimmer as shown in the above illustration.
The trimmer head should be angled slightly into the area
to be cut. To ensure maximum trimmer-line service life, cut
only with the tip of the trimmer line. Sweep the trimmer head
left to right (T195s), and right to left (F195s) to trim the
grass. During cutting operations, the trimmer head should
be kept horizontal to the ground at all times.
ALWAYS stop the engine immediately
and check for damage if you strike a
foreign object or if the trimmer head
becomes entangled. Do not operate with
broken or damaged equipment.
NEVER allow the engine to run at high
speed without a load. Engine operation
at high speed without a load could dam-
age the engine.
NEVER operate a unit with worn or dam-
aged fasteners or attachment holders.
