Only take the nylon line as close as absolutely necessary to posts, walls, fences etc. Solid
objects will wear the nylon line.
Tree trunks, young trees and bushes may be damaged by the nylon line.
Use the metal plant guard to ensure your plants are not harmed. The plant guard can fold
down to be operational, or up to be housed away.
TRIMMING INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Walk, never run with the machine, be very careful when trimming uneven/rough ground.
2.
Be careful when changing the direction of the trimmer on a slope. Trim across the face of
slopes, never down or up.
3.
Do not trim excessively steep slopes.
4.
Best results will be achieved if the grass is dry. Wet grass will clog the spool and rotation of
the head.
