Maintenance

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Keep your grass trimmer clean and in good repair for maximum performance

and service life. Before each use, inspect the switch and cord for damage. 

Check for damaged, missing, or worn parts. Check for loose screws,

misalignment, moving parts that are jammed, or any other conditions that may

affect the operation. If abnormal vibration or noise occurs, turn off the tool

immediately and have the problem corrected before further use. Do not use the

grass trimmer until it is properly repaired or replaced.

Cleaning

Wipe the outside of the grass trimmer with a dry soft cloth. Do not hose down or

wash the grass trimmer with water. Scrape the guard and spool area to remove

dried clippings and mud. Brush or blow dust, debris, and grass clippings out of

the air vents. Keep the vents free of obstruction.

Cutting Line

Replace the cutting line only with nylon monofilament line on pre-wound spools.

Always wind the line in the same direction as the arrow on the spool.

WARNING:

TURN OFF THE TOOL AND UNPLUG THE EXTENSION

CORD FROM THE OUTLET BEFORE MAINTAINING THE GRASS

TRIMMER.

TO AVOID DAMAGE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT

USE STRONG SOLVENTS OR DETERGENTS ON THE PLASTIC
