TRIMMER SAFETY
Only use the trimming line described in the Specifications section

and the proper line installed. Do not extend the trimming line
beyond the length of the shield.
The cutting head should remain stationary when the engine
idles. If it does not, refer to Adjusting the Idle Speed.
Make sure the cutting head is not in contact with anything
before starting the unit.
