sist handle with left hand.

ADVANCING THE CUTTING LINE

Advance line by tapping bottom of cutting head lightly on the ground while unit is running at full speed. A metal line limiter blade at- tached to the shield will cut the line to the proper length.

Your trimmer is ideal for mowing in places conventional lawn mowers cannot reach. In the mowing position, keep the line parallel to the ground. Avoid pressing the head into the ground as this can scalp the ground and dam- age the tool.
