from the gearcase and boss adapter before you star
the engine.

shaft grip, with his or her fingers on the throttle
trigger. The right arm should be slightly bent.

Reposition the loop handle up or down the drive-

CAUTION
• Always wear gloves and protective cloth-
ing when operating the String Trimmer.
• If the trimmer head becomes jammed, stop the
engine immediately.
• Make certain all moving parts have stopped and
disconnect the spark plug before inspecting the
equipment for damage.
• Never use a String Trimmer that has chipped,
cracked or broken trimmer head.

Cutting with Trimmer Head

• The tip of the line does the cutting. The line
should stay extended while cutting.
Three inches

• Do not force the line into the material. Forcing
the line will cause it to slap against the material,
increasing line usage and causing poor cutting
results.
