Trimmer Guard and Motor Maintenance
During use:
• Trim only when the grass and weeds are dry.
• Do not trim grass at night. Always make sure you have
adequate lighting.
• Hold the string trimmer by both the switch handle and the
auxiliary handle for best control and balance.
• Stand with the cutting head tipped down at an angle in
front, guiding the string trimmer in a semicircular motion
around you.
• If possible, guide the string trimmer to the left to cut.
The line will cut as soon as it leaves the guard, and the
clippings are thrown away from you.
• To produce a smoothly trimmed area, move the string
trimmer out of the area being cut with consistent speed
and height.
• Use only the tip of the cutting line to do the trimming,
especially near walls and fences. Trimming with the side
of the cutting line may overload the motor, wear out the
line faster, and break the line more often.
• Do not rest the trimmer spool on the ground while trimming. This will cause spool wear and battery
drain.
• If the grass is higher than 6 in. (15 cm), trim in small stages.
• When the string trimmer is turned off and the spool stops rotating, the cutting line will relax and
may recede. Feed extra cutting line before storing the trimmer to prevent losing the line completely
into the spool.
• If the diameter of the cutting area gets smaller, the line is worn down and needs to be advanced
more often.
• If the string trimmer is not cutting correctly, the cutting line may not be feeding properly. Remove
and rewind the line spool.
• To extend the life of the battery, only use the trimmer at the lowest functional speed.
