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.

.
Cutting line will wear faster and require more feeding if the
1
into
cutting is done along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or
7
to align
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

with
at normal speed and the line will feed.

Helpful Cutting Tips
are for
•
Use the tip of the string to do the cutting; do not force
string head into uncut grass.
•
Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear, even
breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may
wear string rapidly.
6
•
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" (300 mm) high.
and
•
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.
