Refer to the instructions for the cutting attachment to
check the correct way to load the cord and the correct

Keep the teeth of the blade correctly sharpened! Follow
our recommendations. Also refer to the instructions on

The blade should be completely stationary once the
throttle has returned to its original position.

an incorrectly sharpened blade
increases the risk of blade thrust.
