CUTTING LINE
Line feed
The trimmer uses a 2mm (0.080") diameter ROUND nylon
line to cut grass and weeds quickly and easily. During
use, the tips of the nylon lines will fray and wear out,
and the special automatic feed line spool will feed itself
and cut the line to provide a new tip. The cutting line will
wear faster and require more feeding if the cut or edge is
performed near sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces, or if
you cut thicker bushes. The advanced automatic feeding
mechanism of the line senses when more cutting line is
needed, and it feeds and cuts the proper length of line
needed. Do not drop the device when trying to feed the
line or for any other reason.
