WARNING!
Do not trim near electrical wires.
Advancing Lines
NOTE: Your trimmer uses 0.063 in. (1.6 mm) diameter nylon
line to cut grass and weed quickly and easily. In time,
the tip of the nylon line will become worn and the auto-feed
mechanism will automatically feed and trim a fresh length of
line. The cutting line will wear faster if the cutting is done along
sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are
being cut.
The grass trimmer is equipped with an auto-feed head.
Bumping the head to try to advance the line will damage
trimmer.
1. With the unit running, release the ON/OFF switch trigger.
2. Wait two seconds, and press the ON/OFF switch trigger.
NOTE: The lines will extend approximately 1/4 in. with each
stop and start of the switch trigger until the lines reach the
length of the safety guard.
3. Resume the trimming + edging.

WARNING!
Do not operate the grass trimmer in a tree,
on a ladder, or on a scaffold; this is extremely dangerous.
m
WARNING!
Do not bump the unit on ground in attempt
to feed line or for any other purpose.
