OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Emergency Stop procedure
• If it becomes necessary to stop the machine immediately. Let go of the throttle lever
and move the stop switch to 'OFF'.
Practical tips
• Practice all operating techniques with the engine switched off before you start to use
the machine.
DO NOT use steel wire or plastic-coated steel wire of any kind with
your Trimmer. Serious operator injury can result.
Periodically remove weed wrap to prevent overheating the drive shaft.
Weed wrap occurs when strands of weed become entangled around
the shaft beneath the debris shield. This condition prevents the shaft
from being properly cooled.
• Stop engine – Remove spark plug H.T. lead from spark plug.
• Remove Weed/Grass wrapped around Head/Shaft.
Trimming Procedures
• When properly equipped with a guard and cutting head, your unit will trim unsightly
weeds and tall grass in those hard-to-reach areas – along fences, walls, foundations
and around trees. It can also be used for scalping to remove vegetation down to the
ground for easier preparation of a garden or to clean out a particular area.
Even with care, trimming around foundations, brick or stone walls,
curves, etc. will result in above normal string wear.
Trimming / Mowing
• Swing trimmer with a sickle-like motion from side to side. Do not tilt the cutting head
during the procedure. Test area to be trimmed for proper cutting height. Keep string
head at same level for even depth of cut.
