To turn the tool off:

1.Release the control trigger and the tool will turn off. The thumb switch wilt return to the rear position to prevent accidental re-starting of the tool.

The power handle can be operated in two positions, normal and inverted, depending on the work you are trying to do. Depending on work position, both thumb switch or control trigger wilt release safety or activate tool, so it is not necessary to contort your hand when using the power handle in the inverted position. (see figure 9)

OVERLOAD PROTECTION

The line trimmer attachment

incorporates a fuse which will protect the line trimmer in the event of an

overload or prolonged stall. The fuse will cause the tool to stop operating if an overload condition exists. If the

line trimmer stalls or stops turning unexpectedly, release the control trigger immediately. If, after verifying that the line head turns freely, the line trimmer does not restart, check the fuse to see if it needs replacing. See the section on replacing the fuse. Only replace the fuse with the same type 15 Amp fuse.

LINE TRIMMER/EDGER

OPERATION

ATTACH LINE GUARD PRIOR TO USE - Attach the line guard to the trimmer housing by first aligning both of the side tabs with the slots in the trimmer housing. Next, press firmly on the rear of the guard until it is firmly seated against the trimmer housing.

Important - Rotate the edging wheel until the arrow on the wheel lines up exactly with the arrow on the underside of the line guard.

Now, insert the provided screw through the hole in the edging wheel and into the exposed hole in the black housing. Tighten in place with a screwdriver. (see figure 10) When the screw is properly installed and tightened, the head of the screw will be recessed and the edging wheel should rotate freely.
