using a straight shaft attachment, the knob should be

OPERATION
OPERATING THE LINE TRIMMER (Fig. 4 & 9)
Hold the line trimmer with the right hand on the trigger
handle and the left hand on the J-handle. Keep a firm
grip with both hands while in operation. Keep a firm grip
with both hands while in operation. The product should
be held at a comfortable position with the trigger handle
about hip height.
Always operate the product at full throttle. Prolonged
cutting at partial throttle will result in lubricant dripping
from the silencer. Cut tall grass from the top down.
This will prevent grass from wrapping around the shaft
housing and string head which may cause damage from
overheating. If grass becomes wrapped around the string
head, stop the engine, and remove the grass.
CUTTING TIPS (Fig. 9)
■ Do not push into the grass to be cut. Move from side
to side, moving forward a little at the end of each
sweep.
■ Keep the product tilted towards the area being cut.
■ Do not cut in dangerous cutting area.
■ Use the tip of 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, kerbs and wood
may wear string rapidly.
■ Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood mouldings,
cladding and fence posts can easily be damaged by
the string.
ADVANCING THE LINE (Fig. 9)
■ Line advance is controlled by tapping the string head
on grass while running engine at full throttle.
■ Run engine at full throttle.
■ Tap the knob on ground to advance string. The string
advances each time the knob is tapped. Do not hold
the knob on the ground.
