3-3. CONNECT THE CORD

1.Ensure the cord is NOT plugged into a receptacle before this procedure.

2.Make a loop with 8” - 10” (20 - 25cm) of the end of the extension cord.

3.Place the loop into the groove at the end of the rear handle and lock into place as shown in Fig. 3-3.

4.Connect the extension cord to the plug on the trimmer.

5.Plug the extension cord into a receptacle ONLY when you are ready to operate the trimmer.

3-4. STARTING

1.When starting the string trimmer for the first time, check that the nylon lines touch or pass over the line- cutting blade. If they are not long enough, press the button and, at the same time, pull the nylon lines (Fig. 3-4A).

2.Connect the plug of the string-trimmer to the exten- sion cord and attach this to the handle. (Fig. 3-3)

3.Take a secure hold of the grass trimmer. Without let- ting the trimmer touch the grass, press the switch (A) on the upper handgrip (Fig. 3-3). Let the string trimmer run for a few seconds and “bump” the string head against the lawn. Nylon line will automatically release. The cut-off knife in the debris shield will trim off excess line.

4.To turn off the string trimmer let go of the switch. NOTE: A short or worn line is less efficient, to lengthen the line tap the spool button lightly on the ground while the trim- mer is running and spool turning. (Fig. 3-4B)

These operations should be repeated a few times before starting work to make sure that everything is functioning properly and to familiarize yourself with the string trimmer. Start off slowly, when you have gained experience, you will be able to use the grass trimmer to its full potential.
