While the grass trimmer/edger is operating, the
cutting line gets worn down and becomes shorter.
This trimmer is equipped with Automatic Line
Advancement which automatically feeds additional
line to the correct length as it wears down. If the
line does not auto advance the trimmer line may
be tangled or empty. To advance the line, stop
and restart the trimmer. Upon starting, the line will
automatically advance 1/4" (6.4 mm).
■ If the battery must be stored in a warm place,
charge it frequently.
■ Before trimming, inspect the area for string, wire,
branches or other material that may become
entangled in the cutting line and thrown.
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 grass trimmer/edger 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 grass trimmer/edger in
a semicircular motion around you.
■ If possible, guide the grass trimmer/edger 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
grass trimmer/edgermout 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” (15 cm), trim in
small stages.
■ When the grass trimmer/edger 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 grass trimmer/edger is not cutting correctly,
the cutting line may not be feeding properly.
Remove and rewind the line spool.
