RIMMING
RASS
• During this activity, carefully move the trimmer into the material that you wish
to trim. Slowly tilt the head so that the trimmed material is ejected away from
you. If you are trimming all the way up to obstacles such as fences, walls and
trees, then approach at such an angle that all material is ejected away from
you. Slowly move the head with the nylon string trimmer line from right to left
until the grass is trimmed all the way to the obstacle but avoid the string
trimmer line coming into contact with the obstacle.
• When trimming in the vicinity of a wire fence or enclosure, proceed carefully so
as not to come into contact with the wires. If you exceed the minimum distance
from the fence, the string trimmer line will be shortened after impact.
• When cutting weeds, it is possible to cut one stem at a time. Place the trimmer
head with string trimmer line at the bottom part of the weed - never the top
because the stem may start quivering and the string trimmer line may become
caught in it. Rather than attempting to cut the weed directly, it is better to use
only the end of the string trimmer line and to cut the stem slowly.

LEARING AND
RIMMING
• Both these tasks are performed using the head with the nylon line tilted at
large angle. Clearing means removing the top vegetation after which only soil
remains.
• Trimming edges means trimming the grass at the edge of lawns that extends on
to footpaths and roads.
• While clearing and trimming edges, hold the tool at a steep angle and in a
position where dirt, cut material and stones will not be ejected backwards
towards you in the event that they ricochet from a hard surface. Despite the
pictures showing how to perform clearing and trimming of edges, every user
must find their own position that will suit their body dimensions and working
conditions.
WARNING
If a head with a nylon line is used, the correct protective guard must be fitted. If the
nylon line extends out too far, it may start fluttering. If you use a head with a nylon
line, always use the protective plastic guard with the cutter blade.
WARNING
Be very careful when working above soil or gravel because the nylon line may deflect
small stones at a very high speed.
