CUTTING WITH A NYLON HEAD
Warning! Always hold the string trimmer away from
your body, keeping clearance between your body and the
product. Any contact with the housing or string trimmer
cutting head can result in burns and/or other serious
personal injury.
Cutting tips
f Avoid hot surfaces by always keeping the tool away
from your body.
f Keep the trimmer tilted toward the area being cut;
this is the best cutting area.
f The curved shaft trimmer cuts when passing the unit
from right to left. The straight shaft trimmer cuts
when passing the unit from left to right. This will
avoid throwing debris at the operator. Avoid cutting
in the dangerous area.
f Use the tip of string to do the cutting; do not force
string head into uncut grass.
f Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear, even
breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood
may wear string rapidly.
f Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings,
siding, and fence posts can easily be damaged
by the string.
Advancing string using bump feed system
String advance is controlled by tapping string head on
grass while running engine at full throttle.
f Run engine at full throttle.
f Tap string head on ground to advance string.
String advances each time the head is tapped.
f Several taps may be required until string strikes
the cut off blade.
f Resume trimming.
Note: If the string is worn too short you may not be
able to advance the string by tapping it on the ground.
If so, STOP THE ENGINE, and manually advance
the string.
Advancing the string manually
With the engine off, push the spool retainer down while
pulling on string(s) to manually advance the string.
Cut-Off knife
This trimmer is equipped with a cut-off blade on the grass
deflector. For best cutting, advance string by tapping the
string head until the string is trimmed to length by the cut-
off blade. Advance string whenever you hear the engine
running faster than normal, or when trimming efficiency
diminishes. This will maintain best performance.
