Speed control & runtime extension modes
This string trimmer gives you the choice to operate at a
more efficient speed to extend the runtime for larger jobs,
or accelerate the trimmer speed for high-performance
cutting (figure O).
•
To extend runtime, pull the speed-control switch
back toward the battery
is best for larger projects that require more time to
complete.
•
To accelerate the trimmer, push the speed-control
switch forward toward the motor housing
position #2. This mode is best to cut through heavier
growth and for applications that need higher RPM.
nOTE: When in acceleration mode (#2), runtime will be
decreased as compared to when trimmer is in extended
runtime mode (#1).

Helpful cutting tips
•
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 to drag on ground or other
surfaces.
•
In long growth cut from the top down and do not exceed
12 inches (304.8 mm) high.
•
Keep trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is the
best cutting area.
TM
•
The trimmer cuts when passing the unit from the right to
left. This will avoid throwing debris at the operator.
TM
•
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 inch (2.032 mm) diameter, ROUND
nylon line. During use, the tips of the nylon lines will
become frayed and worn. Press the EasYFEED
for a fresh length of line. Cutting line will wear faster and
require more feeding if the cutting or edging is done along
sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are
being cut. The EasYFEED
trims the correct length of line. DO nOT BUMP unit on
ground in attempt to feed line or for any other purposes.
Replacing the spool
WARNING:
trimmer before making any assembly, adjustments
or changing accessories. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the appliance
accidentally. From time to time, especially when
cutting thick or stalky weeds, the line feeding hub may
become clogged with sap or other material and the
line will become jammed as a result. To clear the jam,
follow the steps listed below.
CAUTION:
use the appropriate type of cutting line. Ensure that
cutting line is present in both sections of the spool .
1. Remove the battery from the trimmer.
2. Press the release tabs
as shown in figure P and remove the cap by pulling it
straight off.
3. Pull the spool
