OPERATION

TO ADVANCE THE CUTTING LINE (REEL EASY STRING HEAD)

Line advance is controlled by tapping the string head on grass while running engine at full throttle.

Run engine at full throttle.

Tap the knob on ground to advance line. The line advances each time the knob is tapped. Do not hold the knob on the ground.

NOTE: The line trimming cut-off blade on the grass deflector will cut the line to the correct length.

NOTE: If the line is worn too short you may not be able to advance the line by tapping it on the ground. If so, stop the engine and manually advance the line.

To advance the cutting line manually:

Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire.

Push the knob in while pulling on line(s) to manually

advance­ the line.

NOTE: Dual Spool™ Fixed Line Adaptor line cannot be ad- vanced. To replace the line, refer to Installing Line in Dual Spool™ Fixed Line Adaptor later in this manual.

CUTTING TIPS

See Figures 10 -11.

Avoid hot surfaces by always keeping the tool away from your body. (Proper operating position shown in figure 9.)

Keep the trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is the best cutting area.

The curved shaft trimmer cuts when passing the unit from right to left. The straight shaft trimmer cuts when passing the unit from left to right. This will avoid throwing debris at the operator. Avoid cutting in the dangerous area shown in illustration.

Use the tip of line to do the cutting; do not force string head into uncut grass.

Wire and picket fences cause extra line wear, even 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.

GRASS DEFLECTOR LINE TRIMMING CUT-OFF BLADE

See Figure 12.

The trimmer is equipped with a line trimming cut-off blade on the grass deflector. For best cutting, advance line until it is trimmed to length by the cut-off blade. Advance the line whenever you hear the engine running faster than normal, or when trimming efficiency diminishes. This will maintain best performance and keep the line long enough to advance properly.
