The operation
of any trimmer can
result in
foreign objects thrown into the eyes,
which can result in severe eye damage.
Always wear safety glasses or eye shields
while operating
your trimmer or perform-
ing any adjustments
or repairs.
We
recommend
a wide vision safety mask
over spectacles
or standard safety
glasses. The safety goggles provided
with
your trimmer may be worn over spec-
tacles.
