during operation, or immediately if there is a noticeable
change in cutting behavior.
◾Only use EGOTM authorised polymer trimmer line
accessories and trimmer line that are designed for
use with this machine. Although certain unauthorised
attachments might be tted to the EGOTM line trimmer,
their use may be extremely dangerous, and/or
damaging to the tools.
◾To reduce the risk of serious injury, never use wire
or metal-reinforced line or other material in place of
the nylon cutting lines. Pieces of wire could break off
and be thrown at high speed toward the operator or
bystanders.
