Feed the spinning line into the material to be cut. Tilt the line head to one side to direct cutting debris away
from you:
• Model SRM/DSRM/PAS/DPAS/SB/TX/C/T (Straight shaft, counter-clockwise line head rotation) - Tilt the
cutting head down on the right side while cutting to direct cutting debris away from operator. Feed the line
gradually into the material you wish to cut, avoiding contact with fences or other barriers.
