Maintain a minimum distance of 610 mm between the
guard and your feet as shown in Figure 8.
WARNING:
string roughly parallel with the ground
(tilted no more than 30 degrees). This
trimmer is not an edger. DO NOT TILT
the trimmer so that the string is spinning
near a right angle to the ground. Flying
debris can cause serious injury.
bump Feed Trimmer line Feed
Your trimmer uses 2.032 mm diameter nylon line.
Cutting line will wear faster and require more feeding if
the cutting is done along sidewalks or other abrasive
surfaces or heavier weeds are being cut.
As you use the trimmer, the string will get shorter
due to wear. Gently bump the trimmer on the ground
while running at normal speed and the line will feed.
NoTE: Extending nylon line beyond the 330 mm
swath will negatively affect performance, runtime, and
the life of the trimmer due to potential of damaging
motor. Doing so may void the warranty.
helpful Cutting Tips
• Use the tip of the string to do the cutting; do
not force string head into uncut grass.
• Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear,
even breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs,
and wood may wear string rapidly.
• Do not allow spool cap to drag on ground or
other surfaces.
• In long growth, cut from the top down and do
not exceed 304.8 mm high.
• Keep trimmer tilted toward the area being cut;
this is the best cutting area.
• The trimmer cuts when passing the unit from
the left to right. This will avoid throwing debris at
the operator.
• Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood
moldings, siding, and fence posts can easily be
damaged by the string.
