wARNiNG: Always wear eye
protection and heavy clothing to
prevent rocks and debris from hitting
you and causing an eye injury or other
serious injuries. use two hands to
operate the trimmer and hold the unit
below waist level. To best ensure that
debris is thrown away from your body,
work only from the right to left. For
optimal trimming and edging results
while maintaining comfort, keep the
trimmer head parallel to the ground when
trimming (perpendicular, when edging).
when trimming be sure to keep sufficient
distance between the cutting line and the
ground.
wARNiNG: before operating,
make sure both trimmer lines are
extended. when trimming, make sure
motor is running at full speed.
wARNiNG: Use only 0.065"(1.65 mm)
diameter cutting line. Other line sizes will
not properly feed in the trimmer head and could
cause serious injury. Never use other materials

such as wires, string or rope, as this may break
off during cutting and cause serious injury.
1) TRimmiNG (See Fig. i)
Hold the bottom of the trimmer head about 8
cm above the ground and at an angle. Allow
only the tip of line to make contact. Do not
force trimmer line into work area.
2) EdGiNG (See Fig. j)
To edge,rotate the shaft 180˚. Place edge guide
and trimmer head above the surface you are
going to edge, as shown in Fig. N.
While edging, allow the tip of the line to make
contact. Do not force the line. The wheel helps
prevent the unit from touching the ground.
Take extra caution while edging as objects can
be thrown from the trimmer line.

When initially switching on the trimmer, a
small length of line is fed out.
A 'clattering' noise will be heard for a short
time. This is normal and is caused by the line
being cut by the line cutter. Once the line is
2 in 1 Grass Trimmer/Edger
cut to the correct length, the 'clattering' noise
will stop and the trimmer motor will run at full
speed.
To feed more line, stop the trimmer
completely, then restart, allowing the motor
to reach full speed. Repeat this until you hear
the 'clattering' noise of the line cutting. (Do not
repeat this procedure more than 6 times)

(See Fig. k, l)
Press and release manual line feed button (13),
whilst gently pull out the lines until the lines
reaches the line cutter.
When the required amount of line is fed out,
gently pull on the second line (there is no need
to press the manual line feed button again). If
the line extends past the line cutter, too much
line has been fed out.
If too much line is fed out, remove the spool
cap and click the spool anti-clockwise until the
line is at the desired length.
Removing the Cap (See Fig. m, N)
Press and hold in the two latches (15).
Pull cap away from the spool holder. Keep
the cap and spool holder clean from debris.
To replace the cap, press it firmly towards
the spool holder. ensure that it is correctly
connected by trying to remove it without
depressing the two latches.
Changing the line Spool:
First take off the cap and remove the old spool.
Place new spool into cutting head. Feed one
line through the eyelet, then repeat for second
line. (See Fig. O) Reattach the cap.
wARNiNG! your Trimmer is designed
to only use line with a maximum
diameter of 0.065". only use nylon line.
imPoRTANT - Always wind the line onto
the upper section of the spool first.

(See Fig. P, Q, R, S)
Take approximately 16ft (5m) line and insert
5/8" (15mm) of line into one of the holes in the
upper section of the spool. (See Fig. P) Wind
