To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, always hold
securely in anticipation of a sudden reaction.
Proper hand position
requires one hand
on the main
handle (13), and
one hand on the
auxiliary
handle (4).
Switching Trimmer On & Off (Figure 6)
To turn the appliance on, squeeze the lock-off button (2) and then
the variable speed trigger switch (1). Once the unit is running, you
may release the lock-off button. To turn the appliance off, release
the variable speed trigger switch.
Never attempt to lock the trigger in the on position.
Speed Control Switch (Figure 6 & Figure 9)
This string trimmer
gives you the choice
to operate at a more
efficient speed to
extend the runtime
for larger jobs, or
accelerate the trimmer
speed for high-
performance cutting.
To extend runtime,
pull the speed control
switch back toward the
battery housing (10)
into the LO position. This mode is best for larger projects that
require more time to complete.
To accelerate the trimmer, push the speed control switch (3)
forward toward the auxiliary handle (4) into the HI position. This
mode is best to cut through heavier growth and for applications
that need higher RPM.
NOTE:
When in HI mode, runtime will be decreased as compared to
when trimmer is in LO mode.
Trimming
With the trimmer on, angle it and swing side to side as shown in
Figure 10.
Maintain a minimum distance of 24" (610 mm) between the
guard and your feet as shown in Figure 11.

Keep the rotating string roughly parallel with the ground
(tilted no more than 30°). This trimmer is not an edger. DO
NOT TILT the trimmer so that the string is spinning near a right
angle to the ground. Flying debris can cause serious injury.

Bump Feed Trimmer Line
Your trimmer uses 0.080" (2 mm) or 0.095" (2.4 mm) diameter
line that is spiral-shaped with smooth round edges. Cutting line
will wear faster and require more feeding if the cutting is done
along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heaver weeds are
being cut.
As you use the trimmer, the string will get shorter due to wear.
Gently bump the trimmer on the ground while running at normal
speed and the line will feed.
NOTE:
Extending nylon line beyond the 15" (381 mm) swath will
negatively affect performance, runtime and the life of the trimmer
due to potential of damaging motor. Doing so may void the warranty.
Helpful Cutting Tips (Figure 13)
•
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 (29) to drag on ground or
other surfaces.
•
In long growth, cut from the top down and DO NOT
exceed 12" (305 mm) high.
•
Keep trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is the
bets 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.
