Trimmer Head
Install the Trimmer Head.
1. Turn the trimmer over so that the gearcase output shaft faces UP.
2. Remove and discard the plastic retaining plug.
3. Rotate the tool holder and shaft until the notch in the holder (A)aligns with the
notch on the gearcase (B) flange, and use the long end of the hex wrench to
lock the output shaft in position.
4. While holding the hex wrench, thread the trimmer head onto the output shaft,
turning counter-clockwise.
5. Using hand pressure only, tighten the trimmer head firmly on the gearshaft.
The trimmer head has a left-hand thread. Turn the trimmer head counter-clockwise
to install.

Operation

CAUTION!
Do not push the rotating line into
trees, wire fences or any material
that could tangle or break line ends.
Engine Operating Speeds
Operate the unit at full throttle while
cutting grass.
Trimming and Mowing Grass
Hold the trimmer so the trimmer head is angled slightly into the area to be cut.
To ensure maximum trimmer-line service life, cut only with the tip of the trimmer
line. Cut grass by swinging the trimmer from left to right. Keep the trimmer head
horizontal.
Edging
Tilt the handle about 100° to the left (from horizontal) and move forward, holding
the trimmer vertically as shown.

IMPORTANT!

CAUTION!
Operation of trimmer without a cut-
ting attachment shield and using
excessive line length can lead to
premature clutch failure.
