handle.

To Advance the Cutting Line
See Figure 16c.
Follow these steps to advance the cutting line.

Start the trimmer.

Tap the retaining cap
lightly on the ground while the
motor is running. The line will only advance with
the engine at full throttle.
Do not hold the retain-
ing cap
on the ground.
Note:
The line cutting blade on the grass deflector will
cut the line to the proper length.
Note:
To help prevent line tangle, tap only once to
lengthen the line. If additional line is required, wait a few
seconds before retapping the retaining cap. Do not allow
the line to wear too short. Keep the cutting line at full
length.
