Operating Tips
•
Keep the trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is the best
cutting area.
•
The string trimmer cuts when you move it from right to left. This
prevents the trimmer from throwing debris at you.
•
Use the tip of the string to do the cutting; do not force the string head
into uncut grass.
•
Wire and picket fences can cause the string to wear rapidly and even
break. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood can also cause the
string to wear rapidly.
•
Avoid trees and shrubs. The string can easily damage tree bark, wood
moldings, siding, and fence posts.
