CUTTING WITH THE NYLON STRING TRIMMER HEAD
The string trimmer head rotates CLOCKWISE.
The trimmer line is extended out semi-automatically. While trimming, simply gently tap the head on the
ground, which will push down the button on the underside of the head and the string trimmer line will slide
out. The string trimmer line is then shortened to the maximum permitted length on the blade integrated in
the plastic guard.
Trimming grass
During this activity, carefully move the trimmer into the material that you wish to trim. Slowly tilt the head so
that the trimmed material is ejected away from you. If you are trimming all the way up to obstacles such as
fences, walls and trees, then approach at such an angle that all material is ejected away from you. Slowly
move the head with the nylon string trimmer line from right to left until the grass is trimmed all the way to the
obstacle but avoid the string trimmer line coming into contact with the obstacle.
When trimming in the vicinity of a wire fence or enclosure, proceed carefully so as not to come into contact
with the wires. If you exceed the minimum distance from the fence, the string trimmer line will be shortened
after impact.
When cutting weeds, it is possible to cut one stem at a time. Place the trimmer head with string trimmer line
at the bottom part of the weed - never the top because the stem may start quivering and the string trimmer
line may become caught in it. Rather than attempting to cut the weed directly, it is better to use only the end
of the string trimmer line and to cut the stem slowly.
Clearing and trimming edges
Both these tasks are performed using the head with the nylon line tilted at large angle. Clearing means
removing the top vegetation after which only soil remains.
Trimming edges means trimming the grass at the edge of lawns that extends on to footpaths and roads.
While clearing and trimming edges, hold the tool at a steep angle and in a position where dirt, cut material
and stones will not be ejected backwards towards you in the event that they ricochet from a hard surface.
Despite the pictures showing how to perform clearing and trimming of edges, every user must fi nd their own
position that will suit their body dimensions and working conditions.
WARNING
If a head with a nylon line is used, the correct protective guard must be fi tted. If the nylon line extends out too far,
it may start fl uttering. If you use a head with a nylon line, always use the protective plastic guard with the cutter
blade.
WARNING
Be very careful when working above soil or gravel because the nylon line may defl ect small stones at a very high
speed.
The protective guard on this tool cannot stop objects that ricochet off hard surfaces.
WARNING
Do not trim in places where there are wires and wire mesh. Use protective aids. Do not trim in locations where
you cannot see what the trimmer is trimming.
