CORRECT OPERATING POSITION

Trimming
WARNING:
Always wear eye protec-
tion. Never lean over the trimmer head.
Rocks or debris can ricochet or be thrown into
eyes and face and cause blindness or other
serious injury.
When operating unit, stand as shown and
check for the following:
S Wear eye protection and heavy clothing.
S Hold trigger handle; squeeze trigger to start
unit.
S Keep unit below waist level.
S Hold trimmer with one hand. The trimmer
will hang naturally in the correct cutting
position.
S Cut only from your right to your left to en-
sure debris is thrown away from you. With-
out bending over, keep line near and paral-
lel to the ground and not crowded into
material being cut.

AUTOMATIC LINE FEED SYSTEM

When the trimmer is initially started, a small
length of cutting line is fed out.
After approximately 5 seconds, the line will be
cut to the correct length by the line limiter blade
as the motor reaches full speed. Make sure the
motor is up to full speed before trimming. If
the noise of the cutting line being cut cannot be
heard, more line will need to be fed out.
To feed more line:
S Allow the motor to stop completely; then, re-
start the motor and allow it to reach full speed.
S Repeat until you hear the line hitting against
the line limiter blade (do not repeat this pro-
cedure more than 6 times).
If problems are experienced with the auto-
matic line feed, refer to the TROUBLE-
SHOOTING TABLE.
To manually feed the nylon line:
S If required, the cutting line can be fed out
manually.
S To operate, press and release manual line
feed button while gently pulling on one of the
lines until the line reaches the line limiter
blade.
