Unplug trimmer.

if necessary.
Check that the cutting line does not protrude more than approximately
4-13/16 inches (122 mm) from the spool. If it does, cut it off so that it just
reaches the line trimmingblade.
Plug trimmer into a working outlet.
Replace circuit fuse. (If the product repeatedly causes the circuit fuse to
blow, discontinue use immediately and call the Craftsman help line at
888-331-4569.)
Call the Craftsman help line at 888-331-4569 to have cord or
switch replaced.
Make sure you are using 0.065 inch (1.65 mm) diameter ROUND line.
Ensure you are cutting with the tip of the line (7 inches (177.8 mm) from the
spool).Use the edge guide if needed to ensure proper space is maintained.
Ensure you are not exceeding a 10° angle.
Make sure to park the lines in holding slots (Figure S) before removing.
