Operating Tips
•
Keep the trimmer tilted toward the area being cut;
this is the best cutting area.
•
The string trimmer cuts when you move it from left
to right. This prevents the trimmer from throwing
debris at you.
•
Use the tip of the string to do the cutting; do not
force the string head into uncut grass.
•
Wire and picket fences can cause the string to
wear rapidly and even break. Stone and brick
walls, curbs, and wood can also cause the string
to wear rapidly.
•
Avoid trees and shrubs. The string can easily
damage tree bark, wood moldings, siding, and
fence posts.
