F How to Adjust the Height of Cut

WARNING

Height of Cut Positions

Before you adjust the height of cut, stop the engine. Wait for all moving parts to stop. Allow engine to cool and dis- connect the spark plug wire.

Set Screws

Trimmer Head

The height of cut can be set from 1.5 to 3 in. [38-76 mm]. Recommended cutting height for the average yard is 2 in. [51 mm].

1.Use the T-Wrench, found in a parts bag, to loosen the (2) set screws. (See Figure 10)

NOTE: The (2) set screws are only on one side of the trim- mer head. If you don’t see the set screws, check the op- posite side. Both set screws need to be loosened to adjust the height of the cut.

2.Slide the trimmer head up or down for desired height of cut.

3.Tighten both set screws to 7-12 foot-pounds (9.5-16.3 Nm).

TRIMMING TIPS

WARNING

Debris such as sticks, gravel, and rocks can be thrown with sufficient force to cause personal injury or property damage.

WARNING

•Frequently clean debris and grass build up from the recoil starter cover holes, under the deck in the trimming head area, and around the muffler. Using the unit with excessive debris can risk fire. Always use extreme caution when using the trimmer during dry conditions.

•If the trimmer lines become too short, it will take longer to complete this job. If the trimmer lines are worn to less than half their original length, change to a new trimmer line. See “How to Replace the Trimmer Line” in the

Maintenance section.

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

•Trimmer head contact to concrete, asphalt and harder surfaces may create premature wear to the height guide.

•For best results and longer lasting line, soak the trimmer line in a pale of water for 24 hours prior to use. A moist line will be more flexible than a dry, brittle line.

•Let the ends of the trimming line do the cutting. This is easily done by moving slowly through very thick or heavy weeds.
