Line Feeding Procedure
In order to feed a length of cutting line, strike the bump
cap on the lawn while the trimmer is running. This will
automatically feed a new length of line and trim it to the
correct length. A firm but gentle motion should be used
to strike the bump cap. The unit should be angled
slightly forward to prevent the guard from contacting the
ground. This process may be repeated as often as
necessary. If unit fails to feed, unplug extension cord at
trimmer and clean out the bump cap.
Trimming Technique and Performance Notes
Tilt trimmer at a slight angle from the ground.
Lower to grass or weeds you intend to cut. (If they are
over 20cm (8") high, start cutting at top.)
Slowly swing unit into and out of area being cut,
holding the unit off the ground at desired cutting
height.
IMPORTANT: for the best cutting action against walls,
fences and in high grass, move trimmer slowly so
grass is cut WITH THE TIP of the high speed nylon
line.
1. Avoid running trimmer with hub in contact with
ground.
2. Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.
3. The life of your nylon line is dependent upon follow-
ing the above trimming techniques, as well as what
is being cut, and where the cutting is being done.
EXAMPLE: Line will wear faster when run against a
foundation wall as compared to trimming around a tree.
Some line breakage will occur from feeding unit too
fast, from entanglement with foreign matter, from nor-
mal line fatigue, and from attempting to cut thick, stalky
weeds in excess of unit's capability.
Note: As the weather becomes cooler, the tendency
for the nylon line to break becomes greater.
DO NOT USE UNIT WHEN TEMPERATURE IS
BELOW 50° F
4. For best performance, as the line wears, lengthen as
indicated in Line Feeding Procedure.
5. Periodically unplug extension cord at trimmer
and remove the accumulation of grass or cutting
debris from the inside of the bump cap shroud
Unplug the extension cord at trimmer.
Spool Replacement and Recovery of Line Broken Off
Inside Spool
1. Unplug the tool. Remove cap by pushing the two
tabs in a nd up, then lift off. (It is not necessary to
push both tabs in at the same time).
2. Remove any debris and grass buildup that may be
inside the cap and on the inside of the hole in the
cap.
3. Remove spool by aligning he notch on the edge of
the spol with the eyelet in the hub and wipe any
dirt off the ribs on the shaft.
4. Unwind about 3" of line from the spool and hold it in one
of the two notches. Make sure spring is in place on the
hub.
6. Holding the line in the gap, insert the end through
the eyelet in the hub and slip the spool into the
hub. If the spool does not slip into the hub easily,
press gently and pull straight out on the cutting line
that protrudes through the eyelet.
7. Install cap by pushing both snap legs into the hub
at once. Make sure that both legs are snapped in
one place. Pull line out by hand until tight.
8. The line should extend out no further than the
guard. You are now ready to resume trimming.
