WARNING
Because a trimmer is a high-speed

some special safety precautions must
be observed to reduce the risk of
personal injury. Careless or improper
use may cause serious or even fatal
injury.
Make sure your unit is equipped with the
proper deflector and handle for the type
of cutting attachment being used.
Always wear proper eye protection.
