CAUTION: Lines coasts after turn off.
Do not use under wet conditions.
CAUTION: Inspect area to be trimmed and remove any wire, cord,
or string-like objects which could become entangled in the rotating
line or spool. Be particularly careful to avoid any wire which might be
bent outwardly into the path of the tool, such as barbs at the base of
a chain link fence.
OPERATING THE POWER HEAD
Hold the power head with your right hand on the rear handle and
your left hand on the auxiliary handle. Keep a firm grip with both
hands while in operation. Power head should be held at a
comfortable position with the rear handle about hip height.
If debris becomes wrapped around the attachment, RELEASE THE
SWITCH TRIGGER, remove the battery pack, and remove the
debris.
Proper Cutting Stance
Weight should be balanced with both feet on solid ground.
Basic Cutting Procedure
Slowly swing trimmer side-to-side as shown.
WARNING: Do not trim near electrical wires or buildings.
WARNING: Do not allow familiarity with this type of product to make
you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is
sufficient to inflict serious injury.
Do not operate a string trimmer in a tree, on a ladder, or on a
scaffold; this is extremely dangerous.
Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and protection.

CUTTING INSTRUCTIONS
LINE FEEDING/ BUMP FEEDING
Your trimmer uses .080" diameter twisted nylon line to cut grass and
weeds quickly and easily. In time, the tip of the nylon line will become
worn. To release line, position cutting head parallel to the ground and
bump the head 2 or 3 times on the ground when the trimmer is
running. When enough line is released, you will hear the sound of the
blade cutting the line. The cutting line will wear faster if the cutting is
done along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are
being cut.
MANUALLY EXTENDED LINE
If your trimmer line hits sharp or abrasive objects, such as stones,
metal pieces, or concrete, the trimmer line can be cut too short to
continue trimming. In this case, you can manually extend the line:
1. REMOVE THE BATTERY PACK.
2. Push the spool knob in and rotate in a counter clockwise
direction. Pull the lines out after every quater turn to achieve the
proper length. (Note: Release only enough line to extend just
beyond the blade. If too much line is released, the blade will be
unable to cut it to the correct working length and it may become
tangled on the rotating shaft.)
3. Install the battery pack.
4. Restart the trimmer and return to normal operation.
