service and repair a cool unit. Disconnect the spark plug wire to ensure that the unit cannot start.

HOLDING THE TRIMMER

Before operating the unit, stand in the operating position (Fig. 21). Check for the following:
• The operator is wearing eye protection and proper

clothing

• With a slightly-bent right arm, the operator’s hand is

holding the shaft grip

• The operator’s left arm is straight, the left hand holding the J-

handle

• The unit is at waist level
• The cutting head is parallel to the ground and easily

contacts the grass without the need to bend over

TIPS FOR BEST TRIMMING RESULTS

• Keep the cutting head parallel to the ground.
• Do not force the cutting head. Allow the tip of the line to

do the cutting, especially along walls. Cutting with more than the tip will reduce cutting efficiency
and may overload the engine.

• Cut grass over 8 inches (200 mm) by working from top to bottom in small increments to avoid

premature line wear or engine drag.

• Cut from right to left whenever possible. Cutting to the left improves the unit's cutting efficiency.

Clippings are thrown away from the operator.

• Slowly move the unit into and out of the cutting area at the desired height. Move either in a

forward-backward or side-to-side motion. Cutting shorter lengths produces the best results.

• Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.
• The life of the cutting line is dependent upon:

• Following the trimming techniques
• What vegetation is being cut
• Where vegetation is cut

For example, the line will wear faster when trimming against
a foundation wall as opposed to trimming around a tree.
Some line breakage will occur from:
• Entanglement with foreign matter
• Normal line fatigue
• Attempting to cut thick, stalky weeds
• Forcing the line into objects such as walls or fence posts

DECORATIVE TRIMMING

Decorative trimming is accomplished by removing all vegetation around trees, posts, fences, etc.
Rotate the whole unit so that the cutting head is at a 30° angle to the ground (Fig. 22).

USING THE CUTTING BLADE

Before operating the unit with the cutting blade, stand in the operating position (Fig. 23). Refer to

Holding the Trimmer

Cutting Blade Operating Tips

To establish a rhythmic cutting procedure:
• Plant feet firmly, comfortably apart.
• Bring the engine to full throttle before entering the material to be cut. At full throttle the blade has

maximum cutting power and is less likely to bind, stall or cause blade thrust (which can result in
serious personal injury to the operator or others).

• Cut while swinging the upper part of your body from left

to right.

• Always release the throttle trigger and allow the engine to

return to idle speed when not cutting.

• When you are finished, always unsnap the unit from the

harness before taking off the harness.

• Swing the unit in the opposite direction as the blade

spins, which increases the cutting action.

• After the return swing, move forward to the next area to

be cut and plant your feet again.

• The cutting blade is designed with a second cutting

edge. You can use it by removing the blade, turning it
upside down and reinstalling it.

To reduce the chance of material wrapping around the blade,
follow these steps:
• Cut at full throttle.
• Swing the unit into material to be cut from your left to

your right (Fig. 24).

• Avoid the material just cut as you make the return swing.

WARNING:

Always wear eye, hearing, foot and body protection to reduce the risk of injury

when operating this unit.

WARNING:

Always wear eye, hearing, foot, body protection and the shoulder strap to reduce

the risk of injury when operating this unit.

WARNING:

Do not use the cutting blade for edging or as an edger. Severe personal injury

to yourself or others can result.

WARNING:

Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade contacts an object that it

does not immediately cut. Blade thrust can be violent enough to cause the unit and/or operator to
be propelled in any direction, and possibly lose control of the unit. Blade thrust can occur without
warning if the blade snags, stalls or binds. This is more likely to occur in areas where it is difficult
to see the material being cut.

WARNING:

The blade continues to spin after

the engine is turned off. The coasting blade can
seriously cut you if accidentally touched.

WARNING:

Do not clear away any cut material with the engine running or blade turning. To

avoid serious personal injury, turn off the engine. Allow the blade to stop before removing
materials wrapped around the blade shaft.

LINE INSTALLATION

This section covers both SplitLine™ and standard single line installation.
Always use original equipment manufacturer 0.105 in. (2.67 mm) replacement line. Other types of line
may make the engine overheat or fail.

There are two methods to replace the trimming line:
• Wind the inner reel with new line
• Install a prewound inner reel

Winding the Existing Inner Reel

1. Hold the outer spool with one hand and unscrew

the Bump Knob clockwise (Fig. 25). Inspect the
bolt inside the bump knob to make sure it moves
freely. Replace the bump knob if damaged.

2. Remove the inner reel from the outer spool (Fig.

25).

3. Remove spring from the inner reel (Fig. 25).

4. Use a clean cloth to clean the

the inner reel, spring, shaft and
inner surface of the outer spool
(Fig. 26).

5. Check the indexing teeth on

the inner reel and outer spool
for wear (Fig. 27). If necessary,
remove burrs or replace the
reel and spool.

NOTE:

SplitLine™ can only be

used with the inner reel with the
slotted holes. Single line can be
used on either type of inner reel.
Use Figure 28 to identify the
inner reel you have.

NOTE:

Always use the correct line length when

installing trimming line on the unit. The line may
not release properly if the line is too long.

Single Line Installation

Go To Step 8 for SplitLine™ Installation

6. Take approximately 18 feet (6 m) of new

trimming line, loop it into two equal lengths.
Insert each end of the line through one of the
two holes in the inner reel (Fig. 29). Pull the line
through the inner reel so that the loop is as
small as possible.

7. Wind the lines in tight even layers, onto the reel

(Fig. 30). Wind the line in the direction indicated on
the inner reel. Place your index finger between the
two lines to stop the lines from over-lapping. Do
not overlap the ends of the line. Proceed to step
11.

SplitLine™ Installation

8. Take approximately 9 feet (3 m) of new

trimming line. Insert one end of the line through
one of the two holes in the inner reel (Fig. 31).
Pull the line through the inner reel until only about 4
inches is left out.

9. Insert the end of the line into the open hole in the inner

reel and pull the line tight to make the loop as small as
possible (Fig. 31).

10.Before winding, split the line back about 6 inches.

11.Wind the line in tight even layers in the direction

indicated on the inner ree

NOTE:

Failure to wind the line in the direction indicated will

cause the cutting attachment to operate incorrectly.

12.Insert the ends of the line into the two

holding slots (Fig. 32).

13.Insert the ends of the line through the

eyelets in the outer spool and place inner
reel with spring inside the outer spool (Fig.
33). Push the inner reel and outer spool
together. While holding the inner reel and
outer spool, grasp the ends and pull firmly to
release the line from the holding slots in the
reel.

NOTE:

The spring must be assembled on the

inner reel before reassembling the cutting attachment.

14.Hold the inner reel in place and install the bump knob by

turning counterclockwise. Tighten securely.

INSTALLING A PREWOUND REEL

1. Hold the outer spool with one hand and unscrew the bump

knob clockwise (Fig. 25). Inspect the bolt inside the bump
knob to make sure it moves freely. Replace the bump knob if
damaged.

2. Remove the old inner reel from the outer spool (Fig. 25).
3. Remove the spring from the old inner reel (Fig. 25).
4. Place the spring in the new inner reel.

NOTE:

The spring must be assembled on the inner reel

before reassembling the cutting attachment.

5. Insert the ends of the line through the eyelets in the outer

spool (Fig. 33).

6. Place the new inner reel inside the outer spool. Push the

inner reel and outer spool together. While holding the inner
reel and outer spool, grasp the ends and pull firmly to
release the line from the holding slots in the spool.

7. Hold the inner reel in place and install the bump knob by

turning counterclockwise. Tighten securely.
