5.  Use the edge of the guard as a guide when cutting near 
fences and walls (Fig. 39). 
6.  Move the edger in a backwards direction when trimming 
around edges to avoid damage.
mWARNING! 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.
mWARNING! Do not operate the grass trimmer in a tree, 
on a ladder, or on a scaold; this is extremely dangerous.
mWARNING! Do not bump the unit on ground in attempt 
to feed line or for any other purpose.
