OPERATION
CUTTING TIPS (See Figure 11.)
• Keep the trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is the best cutting area.
• The trimmer cuts when passing the unit from right to left. This will avoid throwing debris at the
operator. Avoid cutting in the dangerous area shown in figure 11.
• Use the tip of string to do the cutting; do not force string head into uncut grass.
• Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear and breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs,
and wood may wear string rapidly.
• Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings, siding, and fence posts can easily be
damaged by the string.
