Trimming (Fig. K, L)
1. With the trimmer on, angle it and swing side to side as
shown in Fig. K.
2. Maintain a cutting angle of 5 ° to 10 °. Do not exceed 10 °.
3. Cut with the tip of the line.
4. Maintain a minimum distance of 24" (610 mm) between
the guard and your feet as shown in Fig. L.
WARNING:
roughly parallel with the ground (tilted no more than
30º). This trimmer is not an edger. DO NOT TILT the
trimmer so that the string is spinning near a right angle
to the ground. Flying debris can cause serious injury.
Bump Feed Trimmer Line Feed
Your trimmer uses 0.080" (2 mm) diameter diameter line that
is spiral‑shaped with smooth round edges. Cutting line will
wear faster and require more feeding if the cutting is done
along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds
are being cut.
As you use the trimmer, the string will get shorter due to
wear. Gently bump the trimmer on the ground while running
at normal speed and the line will feed.
nOTE: Extending nylon line beyond the 13" (330 mm) swath
will negatively affect performance, runtime, and the life of
the trimmer due to potential of damaging motor. Doing so
may void the warranty.
Helpful Cutting Tips (Fig. O)
•
Use the tip of the string to do the cutting; do not force
string head into uncut grass. Use edge guide along such
things as fences, houses and flower beds for best practices.
•
Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear, even
breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may
wear string rapidly.
•
Do not allow spool cap
other surfaces.
•
In long growth, cut from the top down and do not
exceed 13" (330 mm) high.
•
Keep trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is the
best cutting area.
•
The trimmer cuts when passing the unit from the left to
right. This will avoid throwing debris at the operator.
•
Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings, siding,
and fence posts can easily be damaged by the string.
Cutting Line / Line Feeding
Your trimmer uses .080" (2 mm) diameter, TWIST nylon line.
During use, the tips of the nylon lines will become frayed and
worn. Cutting line will wear faster and require more feeding if
the cutting is done along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces
or heavier weeds are being cut.
