OPERATION

/_WARNING: Always wear the eye

protection. Never lean over the trimmer

head. Rocks or debris can ricochet or be thrown
into eyes and face and cause blindness or other

serious injury. When operating unit, check for
the following:

Wear eye protection and heavy clothing. Hold
front handle with one hand and auxiliary handle

with the other hand. Keep unit below waist

level. Work only from your right to your left to

ensure debris is thrown away from you. Without

bending over, keep line near and parallel to the

ground (perpendicular when edging) and not
crowded into material being cut.

i_WARNING: Make sure that line is

fed out before operation. Make sure

motor is up to full speed before trimming
or edging.

ti_WARNING: Use only 0.065"(1.65mm)

cutting line, diameter line. Other sizes of

line will not feed properly and will result in
improper cutting head function or can cause

serious injury. Do not use other material
such as wire, string, rope, etc. Wire can break

off during cutting and become a dangerous

projectile that can cause serious injury.

TRIMMING

Hold the bottom of the trimmer head about

just above the ground and at a slight angle.
Allow only the tip of line to make contact with

the grass. Let the trimmer line work at its own

pace. Do not force trimmer line into work area.

Edging (See Fig. J)

Change the tool from trimming to edging
mode by putting one foot on the motor
housing portion of the trimmer head (20)

while gripping the main handle/upper shaft

apply adequate force on the upper handle
pushing it downwards, as shown in Fig H1.
Make sure to adjust trimmer head angle to be
in the lowest horizontal setting.Then, holding

the lower housing then pull upwards the

upper shaft, then rotate 90 degree clockwise.
(Fig. F1,)

Then position the wheel on the ground for

edge mode.The guard has two white line
guides to indicate the cutting line position.

Align these marks with the edge of your lawn.
While edging, only allow the tip of the line to

make contact with area being worked. Do not

force the line.The edging wheels help protect
the unit and keep the unit from contacting the

ground.Take extra caution while edging as
objects can be thrown from the trimmer line.

AUTOMATIC LINE FEED SYSTEM

When initially switching on the trimmer, a

small length of line is fed out. Each time the

tools is started from rest it will advance about

.25 inches of trimmer line.

A 'clattering' noise will be heard when the

lines hit the line cutter. DO NOT BE ALARMED

this is quit normal. After about 5 seconds the

line will be cut to the correct length and the
noise will reduce as the motor receives full

speed.
Ifthe noise of the line being cut can't be

heard, more line will need to be fed out.

To feed more line, it is first necessary to allow
the trimmer to stop completely; it must come
to a complete rest, then restart, allowing the

motor to reach full speed.
Repeat above until you hear the line hitting
against the line cutter. (Do not repeat this
procedure more than 6 times)

TO MANUALLY FEED THE LINE (See Fig.

K1)

Turn off the trimmer and remove the battery

If required, line can be feed out manually

To operate, press and release manual line feed

button (16), while gently pulling out the line
