USING THE LINE TRIMMER
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, wear
goggles or safety glasses at all times when operating
this unit. Wear a face mask or dust mask in dusty
locations.
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all
objects, such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or line,
that can be thrown or become entangled in the cutting
attachment. Clear the area of children, bystanders,
and pets. At a minimum, keep all children, bystanders
and pets at least 15m away; there still may be risk to
bystanders from thrown objects. Bystanders should be
encouraged to wear eye protection. If you are approached,
stop the motor and cutting attachment immediately.
Before each use, check for damage/worn parts
Check the bump head, guard and front-assist handle
and replace the parts that are cracked, warped, bent, or
damaged in any away.
The line-cutting blade on the edge of the guard can
dull over time. It is recommended that you periodically
sharpen it with a file or replace it with a new blade.
WARNING:
Always wear gloves when mounting the
guard or servicing the blade. Take care of the blade on
the guard and protect your hand from cutting.
After each use, clean the trimmer.
CAUTION:
Obstructions in the vents will prevent
the air from flowing into the motor housing and result in
overheating or damaged of the motor.
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool.
Never let any liquid get inside the tool; never immerse any
part of the tool into a liquid.
◾
Keep air vents in the motor housing from debris at all
times.
WARNING:
Never use water for cleaning your
trimmer. Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic
parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from
various types of commercial solvents. Use clean cloths
to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
TIPS FOR BEST TRIMMING RESULTS (FIG. N)
◾
The correct angle for the cutting attachment is parallel
to the ground.
◾
Do not force the trimmer. Allow the very tip of the line
to do the cutting (especially along walls). Cutting with
more than the tip will reduce cutting efficiency and
may overload the motor.

ADJUSTING CUTTING LINE LENGTH
The trimmer head allows the operator to release more
cutting line without stopping the motor. As line becomes
frayed or worn, additional line can be released by lightly
tapping the spool retainer on the ground while operating
the trimmer (Fig. O).
NOTICE:
cutting line becomes shorter.
blade assembly. Excessive line length will cause the motor
to overheat and may result in serious personal injury.
LINE REPLACEMENT
NOTICE:

or rope, etc. These can break off and become dangerous
projectiles.
The line trimmer is equipped with an advanced auto-line
winding system. The cutting line can be wound onto the
spool simply by pressing a single button. Loading a full
spool can usually be completed in 12 seconds. Avoid
repeated operation of the winding system in rapid
succession to reduce the possibility of motor damage.
56 VOLT LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS LINE TRIMMER — ST1510E
The cutting height is determined by the distance of the
cutting line from the lawn surface.
Grass over 20cm should be cut by working
progressively from top to the bottom in small
increments to avoid premature line wear or motor
drag.
Slowly move the trimmer into and out of the area
being cut, maintaining the cutting head position at the
desired cutting height. This movement can be either
a forward-backward motion or a side-to-side motion.
Cutting shorter lengths produces best results.
Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.
Wire and picket fences can cause extra line wear or
breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may
wear line rapidly.
Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings,
siding, and fence posts can easily be damaged by the
line.
