OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Slowly move the trimmer into and out of the area being cut, maintaining the cutting head
position at the desired cutting height. This movement can be either a forward-backward
motion or a side-to-side motion. Cutting shorter lengths produces best results.
• Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.
• Wire and picket fences can cause extra string wear or breakage. Stone and brick walls,
curbs, and wood may wear strings rapidly.
• Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings, siding, and fence posts can easily be
damaged by the strings.
Adjusting Cutting Line Length (Fig 7b)
The trimmer head allows the operator to release more cutting line without stopping the motor.
As line becomes frayed or worn, additional line can be released by lightly tapping the bump
knob (G) on the ground while operating the trimmer.
For best results, tap the bump knob on bare ground or hard soil. If line release is attempted in
tall grass, the motor may overheat.
Always keep the trimming line fully extended. Line release becomes more difficult as the
cutting line becomes shorter.
WARNING
• Do not remove or alter the line cutting blade assembly. Excessive line length will cause the
motor to overheat and may result in serious personal injury.
Clean the trimmer after each use
WARNING
• To prevent serious personal injury, remove the battery pack from the tool before servicing,
cleaning, changing attachments or removing material from the unit.
a. Clear any grass that may have wrapped itself around the motor shaft or trimmer head.
b. Use only a clean, dry and soft cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the
tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
c. Keep the air vents in the rear housing free from debris at all times.
NOTICE : Obstructing the vents will prevent the air from flowing into the motor housing and
may result in overheating or damage to the motor.
WARNING
• Never use water for cleaning your trimmer. Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts.
Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents. Use
clean clothes to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
