Increase
the
cutter head speed

approx
6
000
RPM
Low
speed (under
4,000
RPM)
causes
inefficient cutting Use the
tip
of the
nylon
cord
(shaded area shown
in
Fig
41)
for more effective
cutting.
When
the
nylon cord wears down (becomes
short),
decrease the engine speed
to
under
4,000
RPM
and tap
the
knob
of
the nylon cutting head against
the ground
to
advance the nylon cord
