Always release the throttle trigger and allow the engine to return to idle speed when not cutting. To stop engine:

SRelease the throttle trigger.

SMove the ON/OFF switch to the OFF posi- tion.

flower beds, but it also can cut the tender bark of trees or shrubs and scar fences.

SFor trimming or scalping, use less than full throttle to increase line life and decrease head wear, especially:

S During light duty cutting.

S Near objects around which the line can wrap

such as small posts, trees or fence wire.

SFor mowing or sweeping, use full throttle for a good clean job.

TRIMMING -- Hold the bottom of the trimmer head about 3 inches (8 cm) above the ground and at an angle. Allow only the tip of the line to make contact. Do not force trimmer line into work area.

TRIMMER LINE ADVANCE

The cutting head advances line automati-

cally. Do not tap head on the ground to ad- vance line. This may break parts and cause cutting head to malfunction.

Upon unit start up, the line will advance auto- matically to the correct cutting path length. Always keep the shield in place when the tool is being operated.

WARNING: Use only 0.080” (2 mm)

diameter round line. Other sizes and shapes of line will not advance properly and will result in improper cutting head function or can cause se- rious injury. Do not use other materials such as wire, string, rope, etc. Wire can break off during cutting and become a dangerous missile that can cause serious injury.

CUTTING METHODS

SCALPING -- The scalping technique re- moves unwanted vegetation. Hold the bottom of the trimmer head about 3 in. (8 cm) above the ground and at an angle. Allow the tip of the line to strike the ground around trees, posts, monuments, etc. This technique increases line wear.

Scalping

WARNING: Use minimum speed and do not crowd the line when cutting around hard objects (rock, gravel, fence posts, etc.), which can damage the trimmer head, become entangled in the line, or be thrown causing a serious hazard.

SThe tip of the line does the cutting. You will achieve the best performance and minimum line wear by not crowding the line into the cutting area. The right and wrong ways are shown below.
