Operation - Yardworks 15" 5.5A Owner's Manual

ASSEMBLy
• Trimmer should be held at a comfortable position with the rear handle about hip height.
• Cut tall grass from the top down. This will prevent grass from wrapping around the shaft
housing and string head
IF GRASS BECOMES WRAPPED AROUND THE STRING HEAD:
• Stop the trimmer.
• Unplug the string trimmer.
• Remove the grass.

OPERATION

W A R N I N G
Always hold the string trimmer away from the body keeping clearance between the body and the
string trimmer. Any contact with the string trimmer cutting head while operating can result in serious
personal injury.
ADVANCING STRINGS
NOTE: The trimmer is equipped with an auto-feed head. Bumping the head to try to advance the line will
damage trimmer and void warranty.
• With the trimmer running, release the switch trigger.
• Wait two seconds, and press the switch trigger.
NOTE: The strings will extend approximately 1/4 in. with each stop and start of the switch trigger until the
strings reach the length of the grass deflector blade.
• Resume trimming.
ADVANCING THE STRINGS MANUALLY
Disconnect the string trimmer from the power supply, then push the spool retainer button in
while pulling on strings to manually advance the strings.
CUT OFF BLADE
This trimmer is equipped with a cut-off blade on the grass deflector. For best cutting, advance
strings until they are trimmed to length by the cut-off blade. Advance strings whenever you hear
the engine running faster than normal, or when trimming efficiency diminishes. This will maintain
best performance and keep strings long enough to advance properly.
