Lengthening the Line
To increase the length of
the cutting line, tap the
spool on the ground
while the trimmer is
running.
Note:
The blade under
the guard will cut the
line to the correct length.
Important
: Use the following precautions to ensure
optimal line performance.
•
Do not hold the spool on the ground.
•
To help prevent line tangle, tap only once to
lengthen line. If additional line is required, wait a
few seconds before tapping the trimmer head.
•
If the line is not advanced occasionally, it will
wear down to the eyelet. When the trimmer stops,
the short line
may retract into the cutter head
.
Should this occur, remove spool, refeed the line
through eyelet, and assemble spool to trimmer.
Operating Tips
To reduce line wear and improve trimming
performance, use the following techniques when
trimming:
•
Remove any wire, rope or string-like matter which
could become entangled in the rotating line from
the trimming area.
•
Trim only when the grass and weeds are dry.
•
Slowly move the
trimmer in and out
of the area being
cut.
•
Cut grass in excess of eight inches tall or weeds
from the top to the bottom in small increments.
•
Do not force the trimmer.
Allow the very
tip
of
the line to do the cutting.
