sure motor is running at full speed.
• Use only 1.65mm diameter cutting line.
other line sizes will not properly feed in

injury. Never use other materials such as
wires, string or rope, as this may break off
during cutting and cause serious injury.
1. SPACER GuARD
Push the flower Guard (4) in when edging
and pull it out before trimming, as shown in

Unscrew the Locking Collar (2) clockwise to
unlock, as indicated. Adjust the length of the
Telescopic Shaft (5)to the most comfortable
length. Tighten the Locking Collar counter-
clockwise to lock, as indicated.
3. MAIN HANDLE ROTATION
first, hold down the lower housing with your
foot and pull upward on the Telescopic Shaft
(5). Then rotate the Telescopic Shaft clockwise
90 degrees (See fig.e1) and release; the Shaft
will be locked in position automatically (See
fig. e2).
4. ADJuSTING THE AuxILIARy HANDLE
(See Fig. F)
Pull up the Auxiliary Handle Locking Lever (9).
Hold the lever and rotate the Auxiliary Handle
(6) to the most comfortable and balanced
position (See fig f).

5. ELECTRICAL SuPPLy CABLE STRAIN
RELIEF (See Fig. G)
for strain relief of the cable, form a loop at
the end of the extension cable. Locate the
cable through the handle and secure by
placing the loop over the Cable Hook and pull

6. ADJuSTMENT OF TRIMMER HEAD
ANGLE
To adjust the trimmer head angle
downwards, put one foot on the motor
housing, then grip the Rear and Auxiliary
2-in-1 Grass Trimmer/Edger
handles, and apply adequate force to adjust,
as shown in fig. H1.

7. uSING THE ON/OFF TRIGGER
Press and hold the on/off trigger to start the
trimmer. Release to stop
8. TRIMMING
Hold the bottom of the trimmer head just
above the ground and at a slight angle. Allow
only the tip of line to make contact with the
grass. Let the trimmer line work at its own
pace; do not force the trimmer line into the
work area.
9. EDGING (See Fig. I)
first, rotate the Rear Handle (1) 90 degree
clockwise (See "Main Handle Rotation" , fig.
e1&e2).
Adjust the trimmer head angle to be the
lowest horizontal setting (See "Adjustment
of the Trimmer Head Angle" , fig H1). Then
position the edger Wheel (7) on the ground
for edge mode (See fig. I). There are two
white lines, located on each end of the Safety
Guard (3), that show the cutting plane of the
trimmer line. Align these marks with the edge
of your lawn.
While edging, allow the tip of the line to
make contact. Do not force the line. The
wheel helps to prevent the unit from touching
the ground. Take extra caution while edging
as objects can be thrown from the trimmer
line.
10. AuTOMATIC LINE FEED SySTEM
When initially switching on the trimmer, a
small length of line is fed out.
A 'clattering' noise will be heard for a short
time. This is normal and is caused by the line
being cut by the line cutter. once the line is
cut to the correct length, the 'clattering' noise
will stop and the trimmer motor will run at
full speed.
To feed more line, stop the trimmer
completely, then restart, allowing the motor
to reach full speed. Repeat this until you hear
the 'clattering' noise of the line cutting. (Do
not repeat this procedure more than 6 times)
