parallel to the ground (perpendicular when
edging) and not crowded into material being
cut.
wARNINg: Make sure that line is
fed out before operation. Make
sure motor is up to full speed before
trimming.
wARNINg: use only 2.0mm
diameter cutting line. Other sizes of
line will not feed properly and will result in
improper cutting head function or can cause
serious injury. Do not use other material
such as wire, string, rope, etc. Wire can break
off during cutting and become a dangerous
projectile that can cause serious injury.

Postion the trimmer head as shown in Fig. H1
for trimming.
Keep the bottom of the trimmer head just
above the ground and at an angle. Allow only
the tip of line to make contact. Do not force
trimmer line into work area.

The edge guide helps protect the unit and
keeps the unit from contacting the ground.
Take extra caution while edging as objects can
be thrown from the trimmer line.
AuTOMATIC LINE FEED SySTEM
When initially switching ON the trimmer, a
small length of line is fed out.
A 'clattering' noise will be heard when
the lines hit the line cutter. DO NOT bE
ALARMED, this is normal. After about 5
Cordless Lawn Trimmer/Lawn Edge Trimmer
seconds the line will be cut to the correct
length and the noise will reduce as the motor
receives full speed.
If the noise of the line being cut can't be
heard, more line will need to be fed out.
To feed more line, it is first necessary to allow
the trimmer to stop completely, then restart,
allowing the motor to reach full speed.
Repeat above until you hear the lines hitting
against the line cutter.

If required, line can be feed out manually
To operate, press and release manual line feed
button (16), while gently pulling out the line
until it is long enough to reach the line cutter.
If the line extends past the line cutter, too

cap and turn spool counter-clockwise until the
line is at the desired length.
