■USAGE
This machine does cutting not by a rotary cutter like conventional trimmers but by a pair of special blades, each upper blade and lower blade oscillate opposite direction alternately within a limited angle at a speed of approximately 1/30 of conventional trimmers.
This unique mechanism brings you many benefits like the following:
1.Since the blade does not cause grass chips and pebbles to the thrown around, you may use less care about your clothing or surroundings.
2.Should the blade hit a rigid object like stones, trees or steel poles during operation, it does not produce a bounce motion that can cause loss of machine control.
3.Since the blade does not cause cut grass to wrap around the neck, you need not to stop operation to remove such wrappers.
