“bump” the stringhead against the lawn. Nylon line

These operations should be repeated a few times before
starting work to make sure that everything is functioning
properly and to familiarize yourself with the grass trimmer.
Start off slowly, when you have gained experience, you will
be able to use the grass trimmer to its full potential.
A short or worn line
cuts less efficiently
so, to improve its operation on subsequent
