Keep this manual in a safe place for future and regular reference and for ordering replacement parts.

• Be completely familiar with the controls and the proper use of this machine before operating it.

• This machine is a precision piece of power equipment, not a plaything. Therefore, exercise extreme caution at all times. This machine has been designed to perform one job: to cut vegetation and grass. Do not use it for any other purpose.

• Never allow children under 14 years of age to operate this machine. Children 14 and over should read and understand the instructions and safe operation practices in this manual and on the machine and should be trained and supervised by an adult.

• Only responsible individuals who are familiar with these rules of safe operation should be allowed to use this machine.

• Thoroughly inspect the area where the equipment is to be used. Remove all stones, sticks, wire, bones, toys and other foreign objects, which could be tripped over or picked up and thrown by the string trimmer. Thrown objects can cause serious personal injury.

• Plan your trimming pattern to avoid discharge of material toward roads, sidewalks, bystanders and the like. Also, avoid discharging material against a wall or obstruction, which may cause discharged material to ricochet back toward the operator.

• To help avoid trimmer line contact or a thrown object injury, stay in operator zone behind handles and keep children, bystanders, helpers and pets at least 75 feet from string trimmer while it is in operation. Stop machine if anyone enters area.

• Always wear safety glasses or safety goggles during operation and while performing an adjustment or repair to protect your eyes. Thrown objects which ricochet can cause serious injury to the eyes.

• Wear sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and close-fitting slacks and shirts. Shirts and pants that cover the arms and legs and steel-toed shoes are recommended. Never operate this machine in bare feet, sandals, slippery or light-weight (e.g., canvas) shoes.

• Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts. Keep clear of discharge area at all times as the rotating spindle and trimmer lines can cause injury.

• Never operate the string trimmer without proper shields, guards, throttle handle or other safety protective devices in place and working.

• Never operate the string trimmer with damaged safety devices. Failure to do so, can result in personal injury.

• Many injuries occur as a result of the string trimmer being pulled over the foot during a fall caused by slipping or tripping. Do not hold on to the string trimmer if you are falling; release the handle immediately.

• Never pull the string trimmer back toward you while you are walking. If you must back the string trimmer away from a wall or obstruction first look down and behind to avoid tripping and then follow these steps:
  a. Step back from string trimmer to fully extend your arms.

Doing so makes the safety device inoperative and may result in personal injury through contact with the rotating trimmer line. The throttle handle must operate easily in both directions and automatically return to the disengaged position when released.

• Never operate the string trimmer in wet grass. Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall can cause serious personal injury. If you feel you are losing your footing, release the throttle handle immediately and the spindle will stop rotating within three seconds.

• Operate only in daylight or good artificial light. Walk, never run.

• Stop the spindle when crossing gravel drives, walks or roads.

• If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the engine and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

• Shut the engine off and wait until the spindle comes to a complete stop before cleaning the discharge area. The spindle continues to rotate for a few seconds after the throttle handle is released. Never place any part of the body in the trimmer line area until you are sure the spindle has stopped rotating.

• Never operate string trimmer without proper trail shield, discharge cover, throttle handle or other safety protective devices in place and working. Never operate string trimmer with damaged safety devices. Failure to do so can result in personal injury.

• Muffler and engine become hot and can cause a burn. Do not touch.

• Only use parts and accessories made for this machine by the manufacturer. Failure to do so can result in personal injury.

• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt, then pull rapidly. Rapid retraction of starter cord (kickback) will pull hand and arm toward engine faster than you can let go. Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could result.

• If situations occur which are not covered in this manual, use care and good judgement. Contact Customer Support for assistance or the name of the nearest service dealer.

Slope Operation
Slopes are a major factor related to slip and fall accidents, which can result in severe injury. Operation on slopes requires extra caution. If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not trim on it. For your safety, use the slope gauge included as part of this manual to measure slopes before operating this machine on a sloped or hilly area. If the slope is greater than 15 degrees, do not trim on it.
Do:

• Trim across the face of slopes; never up and down. Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on slopes.
• Watch for holes, ruts, rocks, hidden objects, or bumps which can cause you to slip or trip. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
• Always be sure of your footing. A slip and fall can cause serious personal injury. If you feel you are losing your balance, release the throttle handle immediately and the spindle will stop rotating within three (3) seconds.

Do Not:

• Do not trim near drop-offs, ditches or embankments, you could lose your footing or balance.
• Do not trim slopes greater than 15 degrees as shown on the slope gauge.
• Do not trim on wet grass. Unstable footing could cause slipping.

Children
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the string trimmer and the trimming activity. They do not understand the dangers. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

• Keep children out of the trimming area and under watchful care of a responsible adult other than the operator.
• Be alert and turn string trimmer off if a child enters the area.
• Before and while moving backwards, look behind and down for small children.
• Use extreme care when approaching blind corners, doorways, shrubs, trees, or other objects that may obscure your vision of a child who may run into the string trimmer.
• Keep children away from hot or running engines. They can suffer burns from a hot muffler.
• Never allow children under 14 years of age to operate this machine. Children 14 and over should read and understand the instructions and safe operation practices in this manual and on the machine and be trained and supervised by an adult.

SERVICE

Safe Handling Of Gasoline:

• To avoid personal injury or property damage use extreme care in handling gasoline.
  Gasoline is extremely flammable and the vapors are explosive. Serious personal injury can occur when gasoline is spilled on yourself or your clothes, which can ignite. Wash your skin and change clothes immediately.

• Use only an approved gasoline container.

• Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on the ground away from your vehicle before filling.

• Remove gas-powered equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel such equipment on a trailer with a portable container, rather than from a gasoline dispenser nozzle.

• Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank or container opening at all times until fueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-open device.

• Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes and other sources of ignition.

• Never fuel machine indoors because flammable vapors will accumulate in the area.

• Never remove gas cap or add fuel while engine is hot or running. Allow engine to cool at least two minutes before refueling.

• Never over fill fuel tank. Fill tank to no more than 1 inch below bottom of filler neck to provide for fuel expansion.

• Replace gasoline cap and tighten securely.

• If gasoline is spilled, wipe it off the engine and equipment. Move machine to another area. Wait 5 minutes before starting engine.

• Never store the machine or fuel container near an open flame, spark or pilot light as on a water heater, space heater, furnace, clothes dryer or other gas appliances.

• To reduce fire hazard, keep machine free of grass, leaves, or other debris build-up. Cleanup oil or fuel spillage and remove any fuel soaked debris.

• Allow machine to cool at least 5 minutes before storing.

General Service:

• Never run an engine indoors or in a poorly ventilated area. Engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, an odorless and deadly gas.

• Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, make certain the spindle and all moving parts have stopped. Disconnect the spark plug wire and ground against the engine to prevent unintended starting.

• Check the spindle and engine mounting bolts at frequent intervals for proper tightness. Also, visually inspect spindle for damage.
  Replace with the original equipment manufacture’s (O.E.M.) parts only, listed in this manual. “Use of parts which do not meet the original equipment specifications may lead to improper performance and compromise safety!”

• Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure the equipment is in safe working condition.

• Never tamper with safety devices. Check their proper operation regularly.

• After striking a foreign object, stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug wire and ground against the engine. Thoroughly inspect the string trimmer for any damage. Repair the damage before starting and operating the string trimmer.

• Trimmer components, guards and shields are subject to wear and damage which could expose moving parts or allow objects to be thrown. For safety protection, frequently check components and replace immediately with original equipment manufacturer’s (O.E.M.) parts only, listed in this manual.
  “Use of parts which do not meet the original equipment specifications may lead to improper performance and compromise safety!”

• Do not change the engine’s governor setting or over-speed the engine. The governor controls the maximum safe operating speed of the engine.

• Check fuel line, tank, cap, and fittings frequently for cracks or leaks. Replace if necessary.

• Do not crank engine with spark plug removed.

• Maintain or replace safety and instruction labels, as necessary.

• Observe proper disposal laws and regulations.
  Improper disposal of fluids and materials can harm the environment.
