OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR CATALOG #
ST4500 BUMP FEED TRIMMER
LINE FEED
Your trimmer uses .065 in. (1.65 mm) diameter, ROUND nylon
line to cut grass and weeds quickly and easily. Cutting line will wear
faster and require more feeding if the cutting or edging is done along
sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are being
cut. As you use the trimmer, the string will get shorter due to wear.
Gently bump the unit on the ground and the line will feed.
CAUTION:
ALWAYS USE EYE PROTECTION.
