USING YOUR TRIMMER
Be sure trimming area is clear of stones, sticks, wire, or other objects which could damage the trimmer or
engine. Such objects could accidently thrown by the trimmer in any direction and cause serious personal
injury to the operator and others.
WARNING: The operation of any trimmer can result in foreign objects being thrown into the eyes,
which can damage your eyes severely. Always wear safety glasses while operating the trimmer, or
while performing any adjustments or repairs on it.
The trimmer is designed with trimmer head offset to the left side, allowing the operator to trim along a fence,
landscaping, or a house to his or her right side without having to make any adjustments to the machine.
Use two hands hold the upper handle firmly and push the trimmer forward, keep the trimmer guide gliding
on the ground to trim.
Do not trim on excessively steep slopes. Use the slope gauge to determin if a slope is too steep for safe
operation. If a slope is difficult to stand on, do not trim. Do not trim on slopes when the ground is slippery or
wet. Trim across the face of a slope, not up and down.
CAUTION: While operating the trimmer, do not allow the trimmer guide to contact a concrete, asphalt, or
gravel surface. Doing so will result in premature wear.
TRIMMING TIPS
WARNING Debris such as sticks, gravel, and rocks can be thrown with sufficient force to cause
personal injury or property damage.
1. Frequently clean the trimmer to remove any grass buildup. See the Maintenance section for details.
2. For best results and longer lasting line, use the ends of the line to do the cutting. This is easily done by
moving slowly through very thick or heavy weeds.
3. If the trimmer lines become too short, it will take longer to complete this job. If the trimmer lines are
worn to less than half their original length, change to a new trimmer line. See "Replace the Trimmer
Line" in the Maintenance section.
