How the automatic line feed works (H)
1. When initially switching on the trimmer, a small

length of line is fed out.  

2. A ‘clattering’ noise will be heard when the nylon line

hits the line cutter.  DO NOT BE ALARMED this is quite
normal. After approximately 5 seconds the line will be
cut to the correct length and the noise will reduce as
the motor reaches full speed.

• Make sure the motor is up to full speed before trim-

ming or edging.

3. If the noise of the nylon line being cut cannot be

heard, more line will need to be fed out.

4. To feed more line, it is first necessary to to allow the

motor  to stop completely, then re-start, allowing the
motor to reach full speed.

5. Repeat step 4. until you hear the line hitting against the

cutter.  (Do not repeat this procedure more than 6 times)

6. If problems are experienced with the automatic line

feed refer to Fault Finding Chart.
