Operating Your Trimmer Safely

Before operating your Trimmer, please review “Chapter 2: Important Safety Considerations”.

Trimming on Slopes Safely

Slopes are a major factor related to slip-and-fall accidents, which can result in severe injury. All slopes
require caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not trim or edge it.

Always:

•

Use caution on slopes. Whenever possible, trim or edge across the face of slopes, not up and
down. Exercise caution when changing direction on slopes.

•

Remove objects such as rocks and tree limbs, or any other potential object possibly thrown by
the Cutting Cord. Objects struck by the Cord can cause severe injuries.

•

Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Tall grass can hide obstacles.

Never:

•

Never trim or edge near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. You could lose your footing or
balance.

•

Never trim or edge steep slopes or any other areas where stability or traction is in doubt.

•

Never trim or edge on wet grass. Unsure footing could cause you to slip.

Using the NEUTON Trimmer

The NEUTON Trimmer (powered by your NEUTON Mower) is a versatile machine that quickly and
easily attaches to the front of the Mower (Figure 32) to trim and edge your lawn without your having
to buy both a separate Trimmer and Edger.

The Trimmer can cut an eleven (11) inch swath through

lawn grass and light weeds

.

The NEUTON Trimmer ships fully assembled and ready to use. Also included are two (2) replacement
Cord Spools for the Trimmer.
