TO ADVANCE THE CUTTING LINE
Line advance is controlled by tapping the string head on
grass while running motor at full speed.
 Run the motor at full speed.
 Tap the bump knob on ground to advance line. The line
advances each time the knob is tapped. Do not hold the
knob on the ground.
NOTE: The line trimming cut-off blade on the grass
deflector will cut the line to the correct length.
NOTE: If the line is worn too short you may not be able to
advance the line by tapping it on the ground. If so, stop
the motor and manually advance the line.
To advance the cutting line manually:
 Remove the battery pack.
 Push the bump knob in while pulling on line(s) to manually
advance the line.
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, always remove the bat-
tery pack from the tool when cleaning or performing any

maintenance.

OPERATION
LINE CUT-OFF BLADE
See Figure 9.
This trimmer is equipped with a line cut-off blade on the grass
deflector. For best cutting, advance line until it is trimmed to
length by the line cut-off blade. Advance line whenever you
hear the motor running faster than normal, or when trimming
efficiency diminishes. This will maintain best performance
and keep line long enough to advance properly.
This trimmer is currently set at the 11 in. cutting swath. To
adjust to a cutting swath of 13 in.:
 Remove the battery pack.
 Loosen the blade screw then rotate the line cut-off
blade 180°.
 Tighten the blade screw.
MAINTENANCE
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which can result in serious personal injury.
LINE REPLACEMENT
See Figures 10 - 11.
Use only 0.080 in. diameter twisted line. Use original
manufacturer's replacement line for best performance.
 Remove the battery pack.
 Rotate the bump knob clockwise as necessary to align the
arrows on the bump knob with the arrows on the string
head housing.
 Cut one piece of trimmer line 10 ft. long. Insert the line
into the eyelet on the string head housing. Push until the
end of the line comes out the other side of the housing.
Pull the line until equal amounts of line appear on both
sides of the housing.
NOTE: Line may jam if more than 10 ft. is loaded.
