14 DR ® TRIMMER/MOWER ™ Safety & Operating Instructions
Stopping the Engine
Note: If you have an electric-starting model, please note that the key does not stop the
engine. You must follow these instructions for both electric and manual-starting models.
1. Move the throttle lever back to the STOP position.
2. The key has a pressure lock that prevents it from vibrating loose during operation. If
you wish to remove the key, push it in and then quickly and firmly pull it out. If the
key becomes difficult to remove, spray FLUID FILM
 or a similar lubricant into the
keyhole.
Engaging the Trimmer Head
1. Bring the bail bar toward you and grip it together with the handlebar. (See trimmer
picture on page 8.) Keep holding the bail bar to the handlebar. The cutting cords will
rotate and will continue to rotate until you release the bail bar.
Stopping the Cords from Spinning
1. Release the bail bar from the handlebar. The trimmer head will stop spinning while the
engine continues to run.
