Do these gas trimmer attachments keep the motor upside down when
running, or how do they work? It seems like that would be a problem.


Nope - you hold the trimmer head in the normal fashion, except pointed
upward.

By trimmer "head" I meant "the engine end", Mike.

Normal trimmer: Engine/gas tank upright (45 degrees?) when working end
is down. Now, when you take the string spool off and put a saw on the
end, then tilt it 90-135 degrees upward, doesn't the engine end up
upside down? If not, why not?
