1. Use the proper size and type of cutting line. Do not use metal wire, rope or the like. Do not use cutting line heavier than

that recommended by the manufacturer. See the accessory section of this manual for more detailed information about the
proper cutting line to use.

2. Keep the cutting line trimmed to the proper length (done automatically by the appliance). Make sure that the guard is

firmly in place, in working order and positioned between yourself and the cutting line.

3. Wear long pants and substantial footwear to protect yourself from injury caused by flying debris. This is especially

important when edging with the appliance. Estos toma particular importancia al orillar con la unidad.

OPerAtInG InStrUctIOnS FOr BUMP Feed trIMMer

LIne Feed

Your trimmer uses .065” (1.65mm) diameter, rOUnd nylon line to cut grass and weeds quickly and easily. Cutting line will wear
faster and require more feeding if the cutting or edging is done along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are
being cut. As you use the trimmer, the string will get shorter due to wear. Gently bump the unit on the ground and the line will feed.

cAUtIOn: ALWAYS WeAr eYe PrOtectIOn.
cAUtIOn:
Inspect area to be trimmed and remove any wire, cord, or string-like objects which could become entangled in the

rotating line or spool. Be particularly careful to avoid any wire which might be bent outwardly into the path of the tool, such as barbs
at the base of a chain link fence.
1. Angle unit as shown in fig. 7.
2.
Slowly swing trimmer side-to-side as shown in fig. 8.
3.
To convert for maintenance edging, turn off the tool. Holding the trimmer (as shown in fig. 9) with one hand by the

auxiliary handle, grasp the trimmer head collar, push in direction of arrow and rotate the trimmer head clockwise (when
viewed from the switch end) until it stops, (half turn), release your hand. The tool is locked in the edger position.

4. To operate as a maintenance edger, position trimmer above sidewalk as shown in fig. 10.
5.
Return to trimming position by turning the tool off, pushing in direction of arrow and rotating the trimmer head counter

clockwise until it stops.

overload the motor and cause overheating. This line is available at your local dealer or authorized service center.

Do not use fishing line or other lines that are not recommended.
1. Unplug extension cord at trimmer.
2. Remove the bump cap by pulling up while depressing the two release tabs on the sides of the hub at the points shown in

fig. 11.
nOte:
It may be necessary to pull up on the cap while depressing the release tabs one side at a time.

3. Remove any broken cutting line, wrap the remaining line tight and reinsert spool into hub as follows.

a. Wind the line tight enough so that it is all below the edges of the flanges on the spool. If it extends past the flanges, it

won’t fit into the hub.

b. Place the loose end of the cutting line through the gap in the spool flange as shown in fig. 12.

(Either gap will do but try to leave yourself about 3 or 4 inches of line to work with.)

c. Holding the line in the gap, insert the end through the eyelet in the hub and slip the spool into the hub, as shown in

fig. 13. Make sure the spring is still in place in the hub. If the spool does not slip into the hub easily, press gently and
pull straight out on the cutting line that protrudes through the eyelet.

4. Once the spool drops into the hub, align the release tabs on the shroud with the slots in the hub as shown in fig. 14

and press the shroud into place. Be sure that both release tabs snap into place.

5. To replace the line on a spool, follow the steps below:

a. Locate, on the empty spool, one of the two small holes shown in fig. 15.
b.
Insert the end of the line no more than 1/8" into the hole and begin winding the line around the spool (fig. 16).

Be sure to wind the line in the direction of the arrow in fig. 17. Do not overfill spool. The spool holds 20 feet (6m) of line.

c. Perform steps 3 and 4 above.
