chet or be thrown into eyes and face
and cause blindness or other serious
injury.
Before trimming, bring engine to a
speed sufficient to cut matedal to be

Do not run the engine at a higher speed
than necessary. The cutting line will cut

is less engine noise and vibration. Al-
ways release the throttle trigger and
allow the engine to return to idle speed
when not cutting.

ance and minimum line wear by not
