To Increase Line Length
1. The line trimmer comes with a full line pool.
2. The line will wear in use and you will need to
feed out new line .
3. The cutting bump head allows the operator to
release more line without stopping the motor.
As line becomes frayed or worn, additional
line can be released by tapping the bump
knob on the ground while operating the
line trimmer.
NOTE:
For a good cutting performance. Cut high
grass in stages. Starting from the top.
Special notice for line trimmer use
1. For best results, do not cut wet grass
because it tends to stick to the cutting head
and guard, prevents proper discharge of
grass trimmings, and could cause you to slip
and fall.
2. Pay special attention when trimming next to
trees and bushes. The cutting head could
damage sensitive bark, and damage fence
posts.
