OPERATING THE TRIMMER (Fig. 11)
Hold the trimmer/brushcutter with the right hand on the
rear handle and the left hand on the front handle. Keep a
firm grip with both hands while in operation. Trimmer
should be held at a comfortable position with the trigger
handle about hip height.
Always operate trimmer at full throttle. Cut tall grass from
the top down. This will prevent grass from wrapping
round the shaft housing and string head, which may
cause damage from overheating. If grass becomes
wrapped round the string head, stop the engine,
disconnect the sparking plug wire, and remove the grass.
Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result in oil
dripping from the silencer.
