WEED AND LAWN TRIMMING

The unit works best with dry grass, but it can be used safely in wet grass due to the tow voltage design.

A long sweeping cutting motion will get the greatest amount of trimming per charge.

Watch out for foreign objects in the grass. Avoid trimming near wiring or other objects that could become

tangled in the rotation of the string head.

Always inspect area to be trimmed for objects that could be damaged or tangled during trimming.

During normal operation, the cutting line wilt wear down and need to be

advanced to its full cutting length.

Advance (bump feed) the cutting

line - While the unit is running, gently tap the line head against the ground until the cutting line advances to the cut-off blade. Excess line will be cut off automatically to maintain proper length.

To lengthen the life of the string spool, do not bump feed by tapping the line head on concrete or asphalt.

LAWN AND FLOWERBED EDGING

Holding the front handle, rotate the rest of the unit to bring the edging wheel into position. (see figure 12)
