Section 5 Trimmer Line

To replace trimmer line, bend a new line into two equal
lengths, insert the line ends into the holes on the trimmer
head. The head will automatically route the line out the
correct hole. Pull each end taught and adjust if uneven.

Section 6 Tips and Recommendations

—
Because the Z-Trimmer runs off your machine's
charging system, it is recommended to operate the
machine at full throttle when using the Z-Trimmer.
—
Inspect the Z-Trimmer before each and every use.
Examine the base plate to ensure the Z-Trimmer is
tightly secured to your machine. Make sure the power
cable is secure. Check all moving parts for damage or
obstruction. Inspect the trimmer head and line.
Check the head shroud for any debris before using the
—
Z-Trimmer. Clean if necessary.
If the circuit breaker trips repeatedly, slow your speed
—
and/or adjust your height setting.
—
Keep your trimmer line in an easily accessible, but
secure place on your machine. Practice replacing the
trimmer line from the operator seat to save time.
—
If the Z-Trimmer gets hung up or caught on something,
STOP and TURN THE POWER OFF before inspecting
the situation.
—
Ensure the Z-Trimmer is in the correct angle
(trimming/edging) and that the star knob is tightened
securely before use.
—
Always inspect the area you are trimming before
operating your Z-Trimmer. Look for anything that could
potentially get caught up in the trimmer head, or damage
the trimmer.
