Do not wear ties, jewelry, or loose, dangling clothing
which could be caught in the unit.
6. CUTTING WITH A NYLON HEAD
Looking down on the unit, the line head rotates in a
counter clockwise direction. The CUT-OFF KNIFE will
be on the right side of the debris shield.
WARNING
A proper debris shield must be in place on the unit
when a nylon cutting line is used. The
cutting line can flap around if too much line is
exposed. Always use the plastic debris shield with
cut-off knife when using nylon cutting heads.
For nearly all cutting, it is good to tilt the line head
so that contact is made on the part of the line circle
where the line is moving AWAY from you and the
debris shield. (See appropriate picture) This results
in the debris being thrown AWAY from the working
direction.
WARNING
Tilting the head in the other direction will result in
debris shooting TOWARDS the direction you are
working. If the line head is held flat to the ground so
the cutting occurs on the whole line circle, debris
will still be THROWN in your working direction. Drag
will slow the engine down, and you will use up a lot
of line.
WARNING
Use only quality nylon monofilament line that is
2.4mm in diameter. Never use wire or wire
reinforced line in place of nylon trimmer line.
WARNING
Use extreme caution when operating over bare spots
and gravel. The line can throw small rocks at high
speeds and can cause injury. Debris shields on the
unit cannot stop objects bouncing off hard surfaces.
Practical Tips
Practice all operating techniques with the engine
switched off before starting to use the machine.
CAUTION
Remove all grass and weed remains at regular
intervals to prevent the shaft tube overheating. Grass
and weed remains become trapped under the safety
shield and they prevent the shaft tube receiving
adequate ventilation. Remove the remains carefully
using a screwdriver or the like.
DIFFERENT CUTTING METHODS
If the machine is correctly assembled with the safety
hood and cutting head it will cut weeds and long
grass in places with difficult access, for example
along fences, walls and foundations and also around
trees. It can also be used for mowing work to remove
vegetation to allow the better preparation of a garden
or to clear a certain area down to the soil.
PLEASE NOTE:
Even if it is used carefully, cutting
around foundations, stone or concrete walls, etc. will
result in the line suffering more than normal wear.
