Scaling
To remove unwanted vegetation, hold the trimmer head
about 3 in. (7.6 cm) above the ground and at an angle.
Allow the tip of the line to strike the ground cutting the
vegetation off at the surface (Fig. 15).

Mowing
Keep the line parallel to the ground and use a gentle
side-to-side motion (Fig. 16).
