7.3
Avoid thrown debris by sweeping from your left to your right.
7.4
Use a slow, deliberate action to cut heavy growth.
The rate of cutting motion will depend on the material being cut.
Heavy growth will require a slower action than light growth.
7.5
Never swing the machine hard as to lose your balance.
7.6
Try to control the cutting motion with your hips rather than placing the full workload
on your arms or hands.
7.7
Ensure the area to be cleared is free of debris, wire and any other materials that may
wrap around the trimmer head.
Such materials can stall the head and cause the clutch to slip resulting in damage to
the clutch.
7.8
The trimmer attachment is equipped with a semi-automatic line feed (bump feed)
head, that allows the operator to advance the line without stopping the engine.
7.9
When the line becomes short, lightly tap the head on the ground while running the
engine at full throttle.
7.10
Each time the head is bumped, the line advances about 1 inch (25mm).
For better effect, tap the head on bare ground or hard soil.
