Edging (Fig. A, M)
Optimum cutting results are achieved on edges deeper than
2" (50 mm). Do not use this trimmer to create trenches.
1. Using the edge guide, guide the trimmer as shown in
Fig. M.
2. Position the edge guide on the edge of the sidewalk or
abrasive surface so the cutting line is over the grass or
dirt area to be edged.
NOTE: You will experience faster than normal cutting line
wear if the edge guide is positioned too far from the edge
with the cutting line positioned over the sidewalk or
abrasive surface.
3. To make a closer cut, slightly tilt the trimmer.
4. Return to the trimming postion by loosening the lock
collar and rotating the lower housing back 180°. The tool

Cutting Line / Line Feeding (Fig. M)
Your trimmer uses .065" (1.65 mm) diameter, ROUND nylon
line. During use, the tips of the nylon lines will become
frayed and worn. Press the feed button to feed and trim
a fresh length of line. Cutting line will wear faster and
up and onto the motor housing
up and onto the motor housing
require more feeding if the cutting or edging is done along
sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are
being cut. Do not bump trimmer on ground in attempt to
feed line or for any other purposes.
Helpful Cutting Tips
Use the tip of the string to do the cutting; do not force
string head into uncut grass.
Wire and picket fences cause extra string wear, even
breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may
wear string rapidly.
Do not allow spool cap to drag on ground or other surfaces.
In long growth, cut from the top down and do not
exceed 12" (304.8 mm) high.
Keep trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is the
best cutting area.
The trimmer cuts when passing the unit from the left to
right. This will avoid throwing debris at the operator.
Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings, siding,
and fence posts can easily be damaged by the string.
MAINTENANCE

WARNING:
serious personal injury, turn unit off and
disconnect it from power source before making
any adjustments or removing/installing
attachments or accessories. An accidental start-up
can cause injury.
1. Keep the air intake slots clean to avoid overheating.
2. Your trimmer line can dry out over time. To keep your
line in top condition, store spare pre-wound spools or
bulk line in a plastic, sealable bag with a tablespoon
of water.
3. Plastic parts may be cleaned by using a mild soap and
a damp rag.
4. The line cutter on the edge of the guard can dull over
time. It is recommended you periodically touch-up the
sharpness of the blade with a file.
Cleaning

of all air vents with clean, dry air at least once a
week. To minimize the risk of eye injury, always
wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye protection when
performing this procedure.

of the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic
materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened
