OPERATING THE TRIMMER (See Figure 8.)
W A R N I N G
Always hold the string trimmer away from the body keeping clearance between the body and the
string trimmer. Any contact with the string trimmer cutting head while operating can result in serious
personal injury.
Follow these tips when using the string trimmer:
• Hold the trimmer with your right hand on the reat handle and your left hand on the auxiliary
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.
• Cut tall grass from the top down. This will prevent grass from wrapping around the shaft
housing and string head which may cause damage from overhearing.
If grass becomes wrapped around the string head:
• Remove the battery pack.
• Remove the grass.
