• Wire and picket fences cause cutting line wear and
breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood
can wear the cutting line quickly.
5.8 ADJUST THE LENGTH OF THE
CUTTING LINE
Figure 9.
While you operate the machine, the cutting line gets
worn and shorter. You can adjust the length of the
cutting line.
1. Hit the trimmer head against the ground while you
operate the machine.
2. Line is automatically released and the cut-off blade
cuts the excess length.
5.9 LINE CUT-OFF BLADE
Figure 10.
This trimmer is equipped with a line cut-off blade
on the guard. The line cut off blade continuously
trims the line to ensure a consistent and efficient cut
diameter. Advance line whenever you hear the engine
running faster than normal, or when trimming efficiency
diminishes. This will maintain best performance and
keep the line long enough to advance properly.
5.10 ADJUST THE CUTTING DIAMETER
Figure 10.
The machine is set at a 356 mm cutting diameter. You
can adjust to a 406 mm cutting diameter.
Set the cutting diameter to 356 mm for greater runtime
and 406 mmfor a larger cutting area.
1. Remove the battery pack.
2. Remove the blade screws from the cut-off blade.
3. Turn the cut-off blade 180°.
4. Tighten the blade screws.
