WARNING
This product is equipped with extremely sharp
blades, and when used improperly these blades
can be extremely dangerous, and improper
handling can cause accidents which may in
turn lead to serious injury or death. For this
reason, you should always be careful to follow
the following instructions when using your
trimmer.
• Never hold the trimmer in a way in which the
blades are pointed towards someone else.
• Never allow the blades to come into proximity
with your body while the engine of the trimmer
is in operation.
• Always be sure to turn off the engine before
changing the angle of the blades, removing
branches which have become stuck in the
blades, or at any other time when coming into
close proximity with the blades.
• Always wear work gloves made of leather or
some other sturdy material when using the
trimmer.
• Always place the blade cover provided with
the trimmer over the blades when not in use.
• Falling branches may fall onto the face or
into the eyes, resulting in injuries,
scratches, and cuts, and for this reason
you should always be sure to wear a
helmet and face protector when using your
trimmer.
IMPORTANT
The thickness of branches which may be cut
using this trimmer is limited to up to
approximately 3/16" (5mm). Never try to cut
branches thicker than this, as doing so may
result in damage to the trimmer.

2. Turn the bolt located on the top of the trimming
mechanism counter-clockwise to loosen it.
