CUTTING TIPS

• Tilt the machine toward the area to be cut. Use the tip of
the cutting line to cut grass.
• Move the machine from right to left to prevent thrown
debris from hitting the operator.
• Do not cut in the danger area.
• Do not force the trimmer head into uncut grass.
• Wire and picket fences cause cutting line wear and
breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood can
wear the cutting line quickly.
