USING THE STRING TRIMMER
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, wear goggles or safety glasses at
all times when operating this unit. Wear a face mask or dust mask in dusty locations.
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all objects, such as rocks, broken
glass, nails, wire, or line, that can be thrown or become entangled in the cutting
attachment. Clear the area of children, bystanders, and pets. At a minimum, keep all
children, bystanders and pets at least 30m away; there still may be risk to bystanders
from thrown objects. Bystanders should be encouraged to wear eye protection. If you
are approached, stop the motor and cutting attachment immediately.
