Trimming operation
Scything weeds
This is cutting by swinging the cutting attachment in a level
arc. It can quickly clear areas of field grass and weeds. Scy-
thing should not be used to cut large, tough weeds or woody
growths.
If a sapling or shrub binds the cutting attachment, do not use
the cutting attachment as a lever to free the bind, because this
will cause cutting attachment failure.
Instead, shut off the engine and push the sapling or shrub to
free the blades.
