TRIMMING INSTRUCTIONS
1.
Walk, never run with the machine, be very careful when trimming uneven/rough ground.
2.
Be careful when changing the direction of the trimmer on a slope. Trim across the face of
slopes, never down or up.

Do not trim excessively steep slopes.

Best results will be achieved if the grass is dry. Wet grass will clog the spool and rotation of
the head.
