A string trimmer flings grit, wire, and stone chips fast enough to cause permanent eye damage, and gas heads run loud enough to erode hearing over a season.

This guide covers wheel inspection and RPM matching, guard and handle setup, kickback control, and the face shield, gloves, and respirator stack that protects you. A worked steel-cutting example makes each step concrete.
