Operating Tips
•
Keep the trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is the
best cutting area.
•
Tilt the trimmer so that the trimmer string is lowest on the
right side.
•
The trimmer cuts best when passing the unit from left to right.
This will also avoid throwing debris at the operator.
•
Use the tip of the string to do the cutting; do not force string
head into uncut grass.
•
Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear, even
breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may wear
string rapidly.
•
Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings, siding,
and fence posts can easily be damaged by the strings.
