Warning:
Before attempting any of the assembly or disassembly steps below, ensure
your string trimmer is switched off and disconnected from the power supply.

with the mower deck.
To attach a string trimmer to the mower deck (1):
• Slide the bottom of the string trimmer head (5) into the front of the trimmer pocket (2) and
rotate the trimmer guard (6) down into the pocket until it snaps fully into place as shown in
figure B and c. If string trimmer has a wire edge guide, the guide should be below the deck.
If string trimmer has a wheeled edge guide, the guide should be above the deck as shown in
the figure B insert.
note: Ensure the cutting line is underneath the deck and not protruding out the top.
• Using the string trimmer auxiliary and back handles, lift up the string trimmer and ensure the
mower deck is securely attached.
• The trimmer should be in the position shown in figure c.
• To remove the string trimmer from the mower deck, step on the release lever (3) and lift the
trimmer out as shown in figure d.
caution:
Depending on the string trimmer and/or battery pack used with the mower
deck, the assembly may become unbalanced and tip. Care should be exercised when using
on uneven ground or a slope. String trimmer should be removed from mower deck when
storing or when user leaves its vicinity.
oPerating instructions
• Once a string trimmer is attached to the mower deck, switch trimmer on as directed by your
trimmer's instruction manual.
• Grip the handle of the string trimmer and move the mower deck forward slowly in a straight
line to ensure even cutting and coverage of the lawn as shown in figure e. Do not lift up or
pivot mower deck. Keep all four wheels in contact with the ground.
note: The deck can either be moved in long lines in a traditional mowing fashion or moved
back and forth in a vacuuming-like motion.
note: Several passes may be required with long grass.

Before adjusting the height of the mower deck, ensure your string trimmer
is switched off and disconnected from the power supply.
