TRIMMING TIPS
• Set the throttle control in the FAST
position.
If the weeds or grass are tall
and thick, operate the trimmer at a
slower walking
speed.
• Frequently
clean the underside
of the
trimmer
to remove any grass build up.
Keep top of engine around starter clear
and clean of grass clippings
and chaff.
This will help engine air flow and extend
engine
life.
• For best results and longer lasting line,
use the ends of the line to do the cutting.
This is easily done by moving slowly
through
very thick and heavy weeds.
• Use the left side of trimmer when
trimming
along fences, walls, flowerbeds
and other such objects.
• If trimmer
lines become too short, it will
take longer to complete
the job. If
trimmer
lines are worn to less than half
their original
length, they should be
replaced.
See "TO REPLACE
TRIMMER
LINE" in the Maintenance
section of this
manual.
• Trimmer
head contact with concrete,
asphalt or other hard surfaces
may
cause premature
wear of the ball on
bottom of trimmer
head.
