mWARNING! Always hold the trimmer away from
body. Any contact with the grass trimmer cutting head while
operating can result in serious personal injury.
• The life of your nylon line is dependent upon following
instructions for proper use, as well as what is being cut, and
where the cutting is being done.
mWARNING! Remove stones, loose pieces of wood, and
other objects from the cutting area. The string continues to
rotate for a few seconds after switching o the trimmer. Let the
motor come to a complete stop before resuming operation. Do
not rapidly switch the trimmer o and on.
mCAUTION! Always wear eye protection.
1. For best cutting performance, hold the trimmer at an angle
of approximately 10 – 30 degrees to the work area (Fig. 9).
2. Slowly swing the trimmer from side to side (Fig. 10).
3. Do not overload your trimmer; instead, take small “bites”
of grass, working from the top to the bottom. This will
keep the machine operating at high speed and will greatly
improve its cutting eciency (Fig. 11).
Maintenance
Advancing Strings
NOTE: Your trimmer uses 0.063 in. (1.6 mm) diameter nylon
line to cut grass and weeds quickly and easily. In order to
feed a length of cutting line, strike the bump cap on the lawn
while the trimmer is running. This will automatically feed a new
length of line and trim it to the correct length. A rm but gentle
motion should be used to strike the bump cap. The trimmer
should be angled slightly forward to prevent the guard from
contacting the ground. This process may be repeated as often
as necessary. If the trimmer fails to feed, unplug the extension
cord from the trimmer and clean out the bump cap.
mWARNING! Do not operate the grass trimmer in a tree,
on a ladder, or on a scaold; this is extremely dangerous.
Replacing the Spool + Clearing Jams
and Tangled Lines
mWARNING! Unplug the extension cord from the mains
power plug before changing the trimmer line.
1. Turn the spool cover counter-clockwise to unlock and
remove it along with the spool from the cutting head
(Figs. 12 – 13).
NOTE: The cutting line is wound under tension and can be
dicult to handle.
