Operation

WARNING!
Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries. Keep hands, clothing and loose objects away from
all openings. Always stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all moving parts have come to a complete stop
before removing obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit.
WARNING!
Engine exhaust IS HOT, and contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a poison gas. Breathing CO can cause uncon-
sciousness, serious injury, or death. Exhaust can cause serious burns. ALWAYS position unit so that exhaust is directed
away from your face and body..
WARNING!
Operation of this equipment may create sparks that can start fires. This unit is equipped with a spark arrestor
to prevent discharge of hot particles from the engine. Metal blade use also can create sparks if the blade strikes rocks,
metal, or other hard objects. Contact local fire authorities for laws or regulations regarding fire prevention requirements.
Shoulder Strap
WARNING!
Always wear a shoulder strap when operating this unit with a
blade. Wearing a shoulder strap with a grass trimmer can increase operator
comfort during extended periods of operation.
1. Hook the strap hook to the hanger on the outer tube.
2. Wear the shoulder strap so that the hook stays at your right hand side.
3. Adjust the length of the shoulder strap so that you can hold and operate the
machine comfortably.
Adjust the shoulder strap so the shoulder pad rests comfortably on the off-side
shoulder and the cutting path of the cutting attachment is parallel to the ground.
Make sure all hooks and adjustment devices are secure.
Using a shoulder strap when operating this unit with a blade allows you to main-
tain proper control of the unit and reduces fatigue during extended operation.
