OPERATION
OPERATING THE POWER HEAD
See Figure 5.
Engine housing can become hot during power head opera-
tion. Do not rest or place your arm, hand, or any body part
against the engine housing during power head operation.
Only hold the power head with all body parts clear of engine
housing. Extended contact with the engine housing could
result in burns or other injuries.
Always position the unit on the operator's right side. The
use of the unit on the operator's left side will expose the
user to hot surfaces and can result in possible burn injury.
LUBRICANT
2.6 oz. (76 ml)
6.4 oz. (189 ml)
To avoid burns from hot surfaces, never operate unit with
the bottom of the engine above waist level.
Hold the power head with your right hand on the rear handle
and your left hand on the front handle. Keep a firm grip with
both hands while in operation. Power head should be held at
a comfortable position with the rear handle about hip height.
See figure 5 for proper operation position with trimmer at-
tachment installed.
Always operate power head at full throttle. If debris becomes
wrapped around the attachment, STOP THE ENGINE, dis-
connect the spark plug wire, and remove the debris. Pro-
longed use at partial throttle will result in lubricant dripping
from the muffler.
Always hold the attachment away from the body keeping
clearance between the body and the product. Any
contact with the attachment cutting head can result in
burns and/or other serious personal injury.
Extreme care must be taken when using blades to en-
sure safe operation. Read the safety information for safe
operation when using a blade and refer to the safety rules
and instructions in your attachment manual.
