The product, in the report: straight shaft gas trimmer TB2044XP
I purchased a Troy Built TB2044XP gas trimmer and the plastic shroud that covers the top of the engine gave me a substantial 2nd degree burn. The burn measures 1” X 2” and it’s about 4” above my elbow on the inside of my right forearm. Used the trimmer for about an hour on out 1 acre lot trimming our ditch that surround about 2/3 of out property. The burn is an open wound and I’m treating it to mitigate the possibility of infection, I’m very frustrated about this. It seems the exhaust is on top of the engine under the plastic cover, something needs to be done to fix this issue.
