Fig I
Always disconnect the trimmer before making
adjustments!
OPERATION
Always wear eye protection and protective
clothing. Never lean over the trimmer head.
Rocks or debris can ricochet or be thrown into
eyes and face and cause blindness or other
serious injury. When operating unit, check for
the following:
Wear eye protection and heavy clothing. Hold
front handle with one hand and auxiliary handle
with the other hand. Keep unit below waist
level. Work only from your right to your left to
ensure debris is thrown away from you. Without
bending over, keep line near and parallel to the
ground (perpendicular when edging) and not
crowded into material being cut.
Make sure that line is fed out before
operation. Make sure motor is up to full
speed before trimming.
Use only 0.065” (1.65mm) cutting line. Other
sizes of line will not feed properly and will result
in improper cutting head function or can cause
serious injury. Do not use other material such
as wire, string, rope, etc. Wire can break off
during cutting and cause serious injury.
Trimming
Hold the bottom of the trimmer head about
3.25” (8 cm) above the ground and at an angle.
Allow only the tip of line to make contact. Do
not force trimmer line into work area.
Cutting edges
You can use the edge guide to assist in
guiding the trimmer along an edge.(see fig J)
Cutting close to a wall
Use the outside edge of the guard as a guide
when cutting close to an edge.(see fig K)

Automatic line feed system
When initially switching on the trimmer, a small
length of line is fed out.
A ‘clattering’ noise will be heard when the lines
hit the line cutter. DO NOT BE ALARMED this
is normal. After about 5 seconds the line will
be cut to the correct length and the noise will
reduce as the motor receives full speed.
To feed more line, it is first necessary to allow
the trimmer to stop completely, then restart,
allowing the motor to reach full speed.
Repeat above until you hear the lines hitting
against the line cutter. (Do not repeat this
procedure more than 6 times)
