The operation of any trimmer can result in
oreign objects thrown into the eyes,
/i/hich 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
giasses. The safety goggles provided with
your trimmer may be worn over spec
tacles.
HOW TO USE YOUR TRIMMER
ENGINE SPEED
The engine speed is controlled by a
throttle located on the side of the upper
handle. Fast position is for starting and
normal trimming. Slow is for light trimming
and fuel economy. Stop is for stopping the
engine.

head drive control bar and lever which
