7. Wire and picket fences can cause extra string wear or breakage. Stone and brick walls,
curbs, and wood may wear strings rapidly.
8. Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings, siding, and fence posts can easily be
damaged by the strings.
To Adjust Cutting Line Length
The trimmer head allows the operator to
release more cutting line without stopping
the motor. As line becomes frayed or worn,
additional line can be released by lightly
tapping the trimmer head on the ground while
operating the trimmer (Fig. 15).
WARNING
Excessive line length will cause the motor to
overheat and may result in serious personal
injury.
For best results, tap the trimmer head on bare
ground or hard soil. If line release is attempted
in tall grass, the motor may overheat. Always
keep the trimming line fully extended. Line release becomes more difficult as the cutting line
becomes shorter.
Line Replacement
NOTICE: Always use the recommended
nylon cutting line with a diameter that does
not exceed 0.080 in. (2.0 mm). Using line
other than that specified may cause the string
trimmer to overheat or become damaged.
