OPERATION
STARTING/STOPPING THE TRIMMER
See Figures 7 - 8.
Attach the outlet end of an extension cord to the plug on
the rear of the string trimmer.
NOTE: Use only approved outdoor extension cords.
Route the extension cord through the slot located on the
rear of the string trimmer housing and place underneath
the cord retainer.
To start the string trimmer, press the switch trigger.
To stop the string trimmer, release the switch trigger.
OPERATING THE TRIMMER
See Figure 9.
Follow these tips when using the string trimmer:
Hold the trimmer with your right hand on the rear handle
and your left hand on the front handle.
Keep a firm grip with both hands while in operation.
Trimmer should be held at a comfortable position with the
rear handle about hip height.
Cut tall grass from the top down. This will prevent grass
from wrapping around the shaft housing and line head
which may cause damage from overheating.
If grass becomes wrapped around the line head:
Stop the trimmer.
Unplug the string trimmer.
Remove the grass.
