ASSEMBLY and Adjustment

installing the guard

WARNING: remove the battery before attempting to attach the guard, edge guide or handle. NEVER OPERATE TRIMMER WITHOUT GUARD FIRMLY IN PLACE. The guard must always be on the TRIMMER to protect the user.

• Turn the trimmer upside down so that you are looking down at the spool cap (8).

• Remove the screw from the guard with a phillips screwdriver.

• Turn the guard (7) upside down and slide it fully onto the motor housing (5). Make sure the tabs (10) on the guard engage the ribs (11) on the motor housing as shown in figure D. The locking tab (24) should have snapped into the housing slot (25).

• Continue to slide the guard on until you hear it “snap” into place.

• Using a phillips screwdriver, insert the guard screw as shown in figure E to complete the guard assembly.

• Once the guard is installed, remove the covering from the line cut-off blade, located on the edge of the guard.

Attaching the Auxiliary Handle

• To attach the handle (3), press in on the buttons (12) on both sides of the upper housing as shown in figure F.

• Position the handle as shown in figure G, matching up the grooved side of the handle with the grooved button. Partially push the handle on so that it will hold the buttons in when you release them with your hand.

• Push the handle completely onto the housing and position it slightly until it “snaps” into place (figure H).

• To adjust the handle up or down, press in on the button (13) and raise or lower the handle.

• The handle should be adjusted so that your front arm is straight when the trimmer is in the working position.

HEIGHT adjustment

CAUTION: Adjust the length of the trimmer to obtain proper working positions as shown in figure J.

• The overall height of the trimmer can be adjusted by loosening the collar (4) and rotating it in the direction of the arrow shown in figure I.

• Move the upper housing straight up or down. When the desired height is achieved, tighten the collar by rotating it opposite of the direction shown in figure I.
