Preparing the trimmer for use
1. Adjust the main shaft to the correct
working length for your physical size. To
do this, turn the height adjustment
locking mechanism clockwise to unlock
and pull/push the lower shaft to the
desired length. Turn the locking
mechanism anti-clockwise till the shaft
is firmly locked. See Dia 7
2. Check the length of the nylon cutting
line, pull line to inner edge of outer
guard, if the line is very short, i.e. more
than 50mm away from edge of guard,
push down on centre of cutting head
and at the same time pull the line a few
centimeters beyond the guard (see Dia
8 ), when the trimmer starts the line will
automatically be cut to the correct
length.
3. When you need to increase the line
length during use you can simply 'bump
feed' the trimmer to restore line to
correct length. To bump feed, turn on
the trimmer and gently bump the top of
the cutting head on a firm surface, the
line will be automatically extended and
cut, see Dia 9

trimmer for use' section 4 (dia 8)
