TO TURN THE TOOL ON
Push the lock button in with your thumb and then squeeze the trigger
with your fingers. (Once the tool is running, you can release the lock
button). To turn the tool OFF, release the trigger.
Before you start the unit, make sure the trimmer is not contacting any
object.
WARNING: Stones, pieces of metal and other objects can be thrown
out at high speed by the line. The unit and guard are designed to
reduce the danger.
WARNING: To guard against injury, observe the following:
Read instruction manual before using.
Save instruction manual.
Keep hands away from lines.
Keep hands on handles. Don't overreach.
Basic Cutting Procedure
Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and protection.
For the best cutting action against walls, fences and in high
grass, move trimmer slowly so grass is cut WITH THE TIP of
the high speed nylon line.
Avoid running trimmer with hub in contact with ground.
Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.
NOTE: As the weather becomes cooler, the tendency for the
nylon line to break becomes greater. DO NOT USE WHEN
TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 50 degrees F.
Cut tall grass from top down.
Hold the trimmer with your right hand on the rear handle and
your left hand on the front handle. Trimmer should be held at
a comfortable position with the rear handle about hip height.
WARNING: Always hold trimmer away from body. Any
contact with the string trimmer cutting head while operating
can result in serious personal injury.
The life of your nylon line is dependent upon following in-
structions for proper use, as well as what is being cut, and
where the cutting is being done.
WARNING: Do not trim near electrical wires.
WARNING: Do not operate a string trimmer in a tree, on a
ladder, or on a scaffold; this is extremely dangerous.
OPERATING
CAUTION: Inspect area to be trimmed and remove any wire, cord, or
string-like objects which could become entangled in the rotating line or
spool. Be particularly careful to avoid any wire which might be bent
outwardly into the path of the tool, such as barbs at the base of a chain
link fence.
If you strike or become entangled with a foreign object, stop tool imme-
diately, check for damage and have any damage repaired before further
operation is attempted. Do not operate with a broken hub or spool.
WARNING: Do not allow familiarity with this type of product to make
you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is suffi-
cient to inflict serious injury.
CAUTION: Lines coasts after turn off.
CUTTING INSTRUCTIONS
LINE FEEDING
Your trimmer uses .065‖ (1.65mm) diameter nylon line to cut
grass and weeds quickly and easily. In time, the tip of the nylon
line will become worn and the auto feed mechanism will auto-
matically feed and trim a fresh length of line. The cutting line will
wear faster if the cutting is done along sidewalks or other abra-
sive surfaces or heavier weeds are being cut. The line will ex-
tend approximately ¼ in. with each stop and start of the switch
trigger until the line reaches the length of the grass deflector
blade. Do not bump unit on ground in attempt to feed line or
for any other purpose.
If your trimmer line hits sharp or abrasive objects, such as
stones, metal pieces, or concrete, the trimmer line can be cut
too short to continue trimming. In this case, you can manually
extend the line:
1. Unplug the trimmer.
2. Press the line-feeding button with one hand while pulling the
line out with the other.
3. Press the button repeatedly to release line to the proper
length. Each press of the button will release approximately
1/4 inch of line. (Note: Release only enough line to extend
just beyond the blade. If too much line is released, the blade
will be unable to cut it to the correct working length and it
may become tangled on the rotating shaft.)
4. Plug in the trimmer.
5. Restart the trimmer and return to normal operation.
