and your left hand on the front handle.
■ Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation.
■ Trimmer should be held at a comfortable position with
the rear handle about hip height.

from wrapping around the boom housing and string
head which may cause damage from overheating.
If grass becomes wrapped around the string head:
■ Remove the battery pack from the trimmer.
■ Remove the grass.
WARNING: Always hold the string trimmer away
from the body keeping clearance between the body
and the string trimmer. Any contact with the string
trimmer cutting head while operating can result in
serious personal injury.
CUTTING TIPS
See Figure 10, page ii.
■ Keep the trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is
the best cutting area.
■ The string trimmer cuts when passing the unit from right
to left. This will avoid throwing debris at the operator.
Avoid cutting in the dangerous area shown in figure 10.
■ Use the tip of the string to do the cutting; do not force
string head into uncut grass.
■ Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear, even
breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may
wear string rapidly.
■ Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings, siding,
and fence posts can easily be damaged by the string.

best performance and keep line long enough to advance
properly.
