Line Crowded Into
Work Area
• The line will easily remove grass and
weeds from around walls, fences, trees and
flower beds, but it also can cut the tender
bark of trees or shrubs and scar fences.
• For trimming or scalping, use less than full
throttle to increase line life and decrease head
wear, especially:
• During light duty cutting.
• Near objects around which the line can
wrap such as small posts, trees or fence
wire,
• For mowing or sweeping, use full throttle for
a good clean job,

SOALPING- The scalping technique re-
moves unwanted vegetation down to the
ground, Ho+d the bottom of the trimmer head
about 3 inches (8 cm) above the ground and
at an angle. Allow the tip of the line to strike the
ground around trees, posts, monuments, etc.
This technique increases line wear.
MOWING - Your trimmer is ideal for mowing
in places conventional lawn mowers cannot
reach, in the mowing position, keep the line
parallel to the ground. Avoid pressing the
head into the ground as this can scalp the
ground and damage the tool.
