OPERaTING THE TRIMMER (Fig. 5)
Hold the trimmer 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 rear handle about
hip height.
always operate trimmer at full throttle. Cut tall
grass from the top down. This will prevent grass from
wrapping around the shaft housing and bump head
which may cause damage from overheating. If grass
becomes wrapped around the bump head, stop the
engine, disconnect the spark plug wire, and remove the
grass. Prolonged cutting at partial throttle will result in oil
dripping from the silencer.
