Trimming grass and weeds from around porches, fences,
and decks
ADVANCING TRIMMER CUTTING LINE
String advance is controlled by tapping the string head on

SHAFT GRASS
DEFLECTOR
SLOT
NOTE: The line trimming cut-off blade on the grass de-
flector will cut the line to the correct length.
If the string is worn too short you may not be able to ad-
vance the string by tapping it on the ground. If so, stop
the engine and manually advance the string by pushing
the spool retainer down while pulling on string(s).
LINE TRIMMING CUT-OFF BLADE
See Figure 4.
The trimmer is equipped with a line trimming cut-off blade
on the grass deflector. For best cutting, advance string until
it is trimmed to length by the cut-off blade. Advance the
string whenever you hear the engine running faster than
normal, or when trimming efficiency diminishes. This will
maintain best performance and keep the string long enough
to advance properly.
OPERATING THE TRIMMER
See Figure 5.
WARNING:
Always position the unit on the operator's right side. The
use of the unit on the operator's left side will expose
the user to hot surfaces and can result in possible burn
injury.
WARNING:
To avoid burns from hot surfaces, never operate unit with
the bottom of the engine above waist level.
