OPERATION

CUT OFF BLADE

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

CUTTING TIPS

See Figure 11.

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

Do not cut in dangerous cutting area.

Use the tip of 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.
