CUTTING TIPS
See Figure 6.
Keep the trimmer tilted toward the area being cut;
this is the best cutting area.
The trimmer will cut better when moved from left to
right across the area to be cut; it is less effective
when moved from right to left.
Use the tip of the cutting line to do the cutting; do not
force cutting head into uncut grass.
Wire and picket fences cause extra cutting line
wear, even breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs,
and wood may wear cutting line rapidly.
Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings,
siding, and fence posts can easily be damaged by
the cutting line.
Attach metal knob to the rubber hole on the rear
handle when in use, unlock the metal knob when
not in use.
ADVANCING CUTTING LINE
See Figure 7.
While the string trimmer is operating, the cutting line
gets worn down and becomes shorter. This trimmer
is equipped with bump feed line advancement, which
advances additional line once the head is bumped on
the ground while rotating. The cutting blade will cut the
line to keep an accurate cutting swath.
ADJUSTABLE CUTTING DIAMETER
See Figure 8.
The trimmer is currently set at a 14 in. cutting swath.
To adjust to a cutting swath of 16 in.:
Remove the battery from the string trimmer.
Remove both screws on the cut-off blade with a
Phillips screwdriver (not included).
Rotate the cut-off blade 180°.
Replace both screws in the cut-off blade.
Note:
Set the cut-off blade to 14 in. for greater runtime.
Set the cut-off blade to 16 in. for greater cutting area.
Note:
a smaller diameter cutting path will maximize run
time and cutting speed, while a larger cutting path will
help complete the trimming task quicker.
LINE CUT-OFF BLADE
See Figure 8.
This trimmer is equipped with a line cut-off blade on
the grass deflector. For best cutting, advance line
until it is trimmed to length by the line cut-off blade.
Advance line whenever you hear the engine running
faster than normal, or when trimming efficiency
diminishes. This will maintain best performance and
keep line long enough to advance properly.
WARNING
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.

battery pack from the tool when cleaning or perform-
ing any maintenance.
