The trimmer cuts when passing the unit from left to right.
This will avoid throwing debris at the operator. Avoid cut-
ting in the dangerous area shown in figure 12.
Use the tip of line to do the cutting; do not force string
head into uncut grass.
Wire and picket fences cause extra line wear and break-
age. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may wear
line rapidly.
Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings, siding,
and fence posts can easily be damaged by the line.
Do not attempt to touch or stop moving accessory. Coast-
ing blades or line can cause injury.
When using blades:
Do not attempt to use the fixed line/blade housing for
edging. This will cause premature wear on the blades.
Inspect trimmer head before each use and periodically
during long periods of use. If either blade is bent, warped,
cracked, chipped, or damaged, discontinue use immedi-
ately and replace the blades.
Never cut any material over 1/4 in. diameter.
After releasing the switch trigger, keep rotating accessory
in thicker weeds or pulpy stalks until it stops. Maintain
proper control until the accessory has completely stopped
rotating.
WARNING:
To avoid damaging blades or fixed line/blade housing,
allow at least 1 foot of clearance between the blades and
any nearby objects. Never use blades near sidewalks,
fencing, posts, siding, buildings, or other immovable
objects. Damaged blades or accessories can cause seri-
ous personal injury.
