WARNING:
Always wear eye, hearing, foot and body
protection to reduce the risk of injury when operating this
unit.

HOLDING THE TRIMMER

Before operating the unit, stand in the
operating position (Fig. 16). Check for
the following:
• The operator is wearing eye protection
and proper clothing
• With a slightly-bent right arm, the
operator's right hand is holding the
shaft grip
• The operator's left arm is straight, the
left hand holding the handle
• The unit is at waist level
• The cutting attachment is parallel to
the ground and easily contacts the
grass without the need to bend over

TIPS FOR BEST TRIMMING RESULTS

• For best trimming results, operate unit at full throttle.
• Keep the cutting attachment parallel to the ground.
• Do not force the cutting attachment. Allow the tip of the line
to do the cutting, especially along walls. Cutting with more
than the tip will reduce cutting efficiency and may overload
the engine.
• Cut grass over 8 inches (200 mm) by working from top to
bottom in small increments to avoid premature line wear or
engine drag.
• Cut from right to left.
• Slowly move the trimmer into and out of the cutting area at
the desired height. Move either in a forward-backward or
side-to-side motion. Cutting shorter lengths produces the
best results.
• Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.
• The life of your cutting line is dependent upon:
- Proper adherence of explained trimming techniques
- What vegetation is cut
- Where vegetation is cut
For example, the line will wear faster when trimming against a
foundation wall as opposed to trimming around a tree. It is normal
for some line breakage to occur from regular use.

DECORATIVE TRIMMING

Decorative trimming is accomplished by removing all
vegetation around trees, posts, fences and more.
Rotate the whole unit so that the cutting attachment is at a 30°
angle to the ground (Fig. 17).

FIXED LINE INSTALLATION
Always use original equipment
manufacturer 0.105 inch
(2.667 mm) replacement line. Lines
other than those specified may
make the engine overheat or fail.
To install the trimming line:
1. Insert each end of the
replacement line into the holes
on either side of retention
hook (Fig. 18).
2. Push the ends through until
they stick out of the sides of
the head (Fig. 19).
3. Pull the ends through making
sure that the ends are of equal
length and the middle of the
line is centered between the
insertion holes (Fig. 20).
4. If the ends are not of equal
length, push the longer end
back through the head part
way and pull the shorter end to
compensate. Repeat until
both ends are the same
length.
5. Push the trimmer line until it
lies flat against the cutting
head (Fig. 21). Make sure the
two lengths of cutting line are
of equal length. If they are
not, adjust until they are.
WARNING:
installing trimming line on the unit. If the two lengths of
cutting line are not of equal length, the unit may develop
a vibration.
