cut.

fed out before operation. Make
sure motor is up to full speed before
trimming
2-in-1 Grass Trimmer/Edger
WARNING: Use only 0.08"(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.
Trimming
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.
Edging (See Fig. H1, H2, H3, H4)
ALWAYS REMOVE THE BATTERY
PACK BEFORE ADJUSTING THE
TRIMMER HEAD POSITION.
For edging, position the trimmer head as Fig.H2.
To rotate the trimmer head to edging—first
hold the trimmer shaft as shown in Fig H3---
then with your other hand hold the trimmer
head - Push down and rotate 180 degrees and
then release- the trimmer will then lock into
the edging position automatically—Fig H4
NOTE: The trimmer head will only rotate in
one direction. While rotating, please remove
the battery from your tool for your safety.
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
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.
