WARNING!
Remove stones, loose pieces of wood,
and other objects from the cutting area. The string continues to
rotate for a few seconds after switching off the trimmer. Let the
motor come to a complete stop before resuming operation.
Do not rapidly switch the trimmer off and on.

CAUTION!
Always wear eye protection.

degrees to the work area (Fig. 33).

2. Slowly swing the trimmer from side to side (Fig. 34).

3. Do not overload your trimmer; instead, take small "bites"
of grass, working from the top to the bottom. This will
keep the machine operating at high speed and will greatly
improve its cutting efficiency (Fig. 35).
