WARNING: Keep the rotating string
roughly parallel with the ground (tilted no more than
30 degrees). This trimmer is not an edger. DO NOT
TILT the trimmer so that the string is spinning near
a right angle to the ground. Flying debris can cause
seriousinjury.
Bump Feed Trimmer Line Feed
Your trimmer uses 0.080" (2.0 mm) diameter nylon line.
Cutting line will wear faster and require more feeding if the
cutting is done along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or
heavier weeds are beingcut.
As you use the trimmer, the string will get shorter due
to wear. Gently bump the trimmer on the ground while
running at normal speed and the line willfeed.
nOTE: Extending nylon line beyond the 13" (330mm)
swath will negatively affect performance, runtime, and the
life of the trimmer due to potential of damaging motor.
Doing so may void thewarranty.
Helpful Cutting Tips
• Use the tip of the string to do the cutting; do not force
string head into uncutgrass.
• Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear, even
breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may
wear stringrapidly.
• Do not allow spool cap to drag on ground or
othersurfaces.
• In long growth, cut from the top down and do not
exceed 12" (304.8 mm)high.
• Keep trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is
the best cuttingarea.
• The trimmer cuts when passing the unit from the left to
right. This will avoid throwing debris at theoperator.
• Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings,
siding, and fence posts can easily be damaged by
thestring.
