TRIMMER TIPS

WARNING: Debris such as sticks, gravel or stones, can be thrown with sufficient force to cause per- sonal injury or property damage.

Set the throttle control in the FAST posi- tion. If the weeds or grass are tall and thick, operate the machine at a slower walking speed.

Frequently clean the underside of the ma- chine to remove any grass build up.

For best results and longer lasting line, use the ends of the line to do the cutting. This is easily done by moving slowly through very thick or heavy weeds.

If the trimmer lines become too short, it will

take longer to complete the job. If the trim- mer lines are worn to less than half their original length, change to a new trimmer line. “See How To Change The Trimmer Line” in the Maintenance section.

Do not trim on excessively steep slopes. If a slope is difficult to stand on, do not trim. Do not trim on slopes when the ground is slippery or wet. Trim across the face of a slope, not up and down.

Trimming may be done at slower engine speeds especially when trimming around flowers, shrubs, and small trees. Operat- ing at slower speeds will also reduce en- gine noise and vibration at the upper handle.

The 407F features a 17-inch cutting deck, designed to deliver precision cuts on various grass types. This size strikes a perfect balance, making it suitable for both small and medium-sized lawns. The cutting height can be easily adjusted, ranging from 25mm to 70mm, which allows users to achieve their desired grass length with minimal effort.

This technology allows users to seamlessly adjust the mowing speed, which not only matches their walking pace but also eases the strain on the user, enabling longer periods of efficient mowing without fatigue.

The 407F also comes with a reliable grass collection system that maximizes efficiency by ensuring minimal grass clippings are left behind. The generous grass bag capacity means less time spent emptying, allowing for uninterrupted mowing sessions.
