WARNING
USE ONLY FLEXIBLE, NON-METALLIC LINE

WARNING
USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN OPERATING
OVER BARE SPOTS AND GRAVEL,
BECAUSE THE LINE CAN THROW SMALL
ROCK PARTICLES AT HIGH SPEEDS.
THE GUARD ON THE UNIT CANNOT STOP
OBJECTS WHICH BOUNCE OR RICOCHET
OFF HARD SURFACES.
Always wear proper eye protection against thrown
objects.
Objects can bounce up at you from the ground under
the shield, or ricochet off any nearby hard surface.
Do not trim at high speed near roadways when there
is traffic, or in places where there are pedestrians.
If you must trim where people are in the zone of risk
use a much lower or reduced speed, by using a partial
trigger setting.
Do not use full throttle.
Do not push the line into tough weeds, trees, or wire
fences.
Pushing the line into chicken wire, chain link fencing
or thick brush can result in snapped-off line ends
being hurled back at the operator.
The proper way is to cut right up to a barrier, such as
any of those mentioned, but never run the line into or
through the obstruction.
Do not cut closely to obstruction or barrier.
Avoid nylon line contact with broken wire fencing.
Pieces of wire broken off by the trimmer can be hurled
at high speeds.
WARNING
DO NOT TRIM IN ANY AREA WHERE THERE
ARE BROKEN STRANDS OF FENCING WIRE.
REMOVE THE BROKEN PIECES OF WIRE,
OR GIVE THE AREA WIDE BERTH.
WEAR PROPER SAFETY PROTECTION.
DO NOT CUT WHERE YOU CANNOT SEE
WHAT THE CUTTING DEVICE IS CUTTING.
WARNING
ALWAYS STOP THE ENGINE WHEN A
CUTTING ATTACHMENT JAM OCCURS.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE AN OBJECT
CAUSING A JAM IF THE ENGINE IS
RUNNING.
INJURY CAN OCCUR IF A JAM IS REMOVED
AND THE CUTTING ATTACHMENT
SUDDENLY STARTS.
