OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
HOLDING THE TRIMMER
Before operating the unit, stand in the
operating position (Fig. 12). Check for the
following:
• The operator is wearing eye protection and
proper clothing
• With a slightly-bent right arm, the
operator’s right hand is holding the shaft
grip
• The operator’s left arm is straight, the left
hand holding the handle
• The unit is at waist level
• The cutting attachment is parallel to the
ground and easily contacts the grass
without the need to bend over
TIPS FOR BEST TRIMMING RESULTS
• For best trimming results, operate unit at full throttle.
• Keep the cutting attachment parallel to the ground.
• Do not force the cutting attachment. Allow the tip of the line to do
the cutting, especially along walls. Cutting with more than the tip will
reduce cutting efficiency and may overload the engine.
• Cut grass over 8 inches (200 mm) by working from top to bottom in
small increments to avoid premature line wear or engine drag.
• Cut from right to left.
• Slowly move the trimmer into and out of the cutting area at the

protection to reduce the risk of injury when operating this

desired height. Move either in a forward-backward or side-to-side
motion. Cutting shorter lengths produces the best results.
• Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.
• The life of your cutting line is dependent upon:
-
Proper adherence of explained trimming techniques
-
What vegetation is cut
-
Where vegetation is cut
For example, the line will wear faster when trimming against a foundation
wall as opposed to trimming around a tree. It is normal for some line
breakage to occur from regular use.
DECORATIVE TRIMMING
Decorative trimming is accomplished by removing all vegetation around
trees, posts, fences and more.
Rotate the whole unit so that the cutting attachment is at a 30° angle to
the ground (Fig. 13).

MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Perform these required maintenance procedures at the
frequency stated in the table. These procedures should also be
a part of any seasonal tune-up.
NOTE:
Some maintenance procedures may require special
tools or skills. If you are unsure about these
procedures take your unit to any non-road engine

dealer.
NOTE:
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission
control devices and system may be performed by any
non-road engine repair establishment, individual or

In order to assure peak performance of your engine, inspection
of the engine exhaust port may be necessary after 50 hours of
operation. If you notice lost RPM, poor performance or general
lack of acceleration, this service may be required. If you feel
your engine is in need of this inspection, refer service to any
non-road engine repair establishment, individual or authorized

DO NOT
attempt to perform this
process yourself as engine damage may result from
contaminants involved in the cleaning process for the port.
