USING THE TRIMMER
follow these tips when using the trimmer.
•
hold the trimmer with your right hand on the rear handle
and your left hand on the auxiliary handle.
•
Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation.
•
trimmer should be held at a comfortable position with
the rear handle about hip height.
•
allow the trimmer to reach its full speed before cutting
grass.
•
Maintain a cutting angle of 5° to 10°.
•
Cut tall grass from the top down. this will prevent grass
from wrapping around the boom housing and string
head which may cause damage from overheating.
•
if grass becomes wrapped around the string head,
remove the battery and then remove the grass.
WarNING:
trimmer away from the body, keeping clearance
between the body and the string trimmer. any contact
with the string trimmer cutting head while operating can
result in serious personal injury.

Make sure to wind the line neatly and in layers. Do not
crisscross. after winding the line, there should be at
least 1/4" between the wound line and the outside edge
of the spool.
8.
replace the spool and the spool cap. refer to spool
replacement in this manual.
CUTTING TIPS (FIG 11)
•
Keep the trimmer tilted toward the area being cut, this is
the best cutting area.
•
the trimmer cuts when passing the unit from left to
right. this will avoid throwing debris at the operator.
•
avoid cutting in the dangerous area shown in fig 11.
•
use the tip of the line to do the cutting; do not force the
string head into uncut grass.
•
wire and picket fences cause extra line wear, even
breakage. stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may
wear line rapidly.
