Attach Grass Shield

POTENTIAL HAZARD

• Cutting knife on grass shield is sharp.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

• Contact with cutting knife could cause

personal injury.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

• Be careful when handling shield. Avoid

2. Invert trimmer and secure grass shield to

underside of motor housing with (2) two

self-tapping screws (Fig. 4).

3. Remove tape from cutting knife on grass shield

(Fig. 5).

Before Starting

Cutting Line

Note: The cutting line for your trimmer is a

special monofilament line. Your

trimmer comes complete with a supply

of this line already wound onto the

spool.

1. To avoid line tangle during shipment, the tip of

the monofilament line has been taped to the

cutter head. The tape must be removed before

operation (Fig. 6).

2. Check cap to be sure it is securely snapped in

place. Align cap tabs with slots in cutter head,

press in tabs and push down cap and spool to

lock cap in place (Fig. 16).

POTENTIAL HAZARD

• Cap may loosen during shipment. A loose

or improperly installed cap or spool could

fly off trimmer.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

• Contact with a thrown spool or cap could

cause injury to operator or bystanders.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

• Be sure spool and cap are fully secured

before operating the unit. Replace spool if it

is damaged or if cap does not securely snap

onto cutter head.

• Keep bystanders and pets away from

trimming area.

Securing Extension Cord

Note: The proper extension cord is a

requirement for safe and efficient use

of your Toro trimmer. Use only an

extension cord recommended for

outdoor use.

GB–6

1. Plug extension cord into trimmer plug (Fig. 7).

2. Form a loop in the extension cord and insert it

into the slot in the rear of the upper handle

(Fig. 7).

3. Secure extension cord in cord lock as as shown

in Figure 7.

POTENTIAL HAZARD

• Never use an electrical cord that is

damaged.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

• A damaged electrical cord could cause a shock

or fire.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

• Thoroughly inspect electrical cord before

using trimmer. If cord is damaged, do not

operate trimmer. Replace or repair

damaged cord immediately. Contact your

TORO service dealer for assistance.

Operation

POTENTIAL HAZARD

• Objects can be thrown by the trimmer

while it is in operation.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

• Thrown objects could cause injury to the

operator or bystanders.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

• Always wear safety goggles or other suitable

eye protection, long pants and shoes while

operating trimmer.

• Keep people and pets away from trimming

area.

Your trimmer will cut grass and small weeds in

difficult and hard to reach places. However, you will

most likely experience some line breakage during

your first few uses. As you learn the trimming

techniques, you will be able to cut areas around trees,

shrubs, foundation walls, fences, sidewalks, patios,

etc., with minimal line wear or line breakage.

1. Inspect area to be trimmed for any wire, cord, or

string-like matter which could become entangled

in the rotating line. Also pick up any objects or

debris that could be thrown by the trimmer.

2. Lay out the extension cord so that it won’t be in

your way and to prevent kinking or tangling.

3. Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.

4. Slowly move unit in and out of area being cut,

maintaining unit at desired cutting height. This

can be either a forward-backward or side-to-side

motion as indicated (Fig. 8 & 9).

5. Grass in excess of eight inches tall or small

weeds should be cut by working from the top to

the bottom in small increments to avoid

premature line wear.

6. DO NOT FORCE THE UNIT. Allow the very

tip of the nylon line to do the cutting (especially

along walls) (Fig. 10). Cutting with more than

the tip will reduce cutting efficiency and

overload the motor.

The tip of the cutting line will wear during use

and cause a reduction in the cutting swath. If the

line is not advanced occasionally, it will wear

down to the eyelet. When the trimmer is stopped

the line will tend to relax and may retract into

the cutter head. Should this occur, remove

spool, refeed the line through eyelet, and

reassemble spool to trimmer.

7. The life of your cutting line is dependent upon

following the preceding trimming techniques, as

well as what is being cut, and where the cutting

is being done. For example, line wears faster

when trimming against a foundation wall as

opposed to trimming around a tree.

Some line breakage will occur from moving unit

too fast, from entanglement with foreign matter,

from normal line fatigue, and from attempting to

GB–7

cut thick, stalky weeds in excess of unit’s

capability. As cutting line wears, for best

performance, lengthen as indicated in

Lengthening Cutting Line procedure.

8. NEVER drag the trimmer spool on the

ground while trimming (Fig. 11). This causes

motor overload and spool wear.

9. After each use, feed out some line to prevent line

from retracting into cutting head.

10. Trimmer may be used as a decorative edger by

rotating support handle 180 (Fig. 12).

POTENTIAL HAZARD

• When trimmer is used for decorative

edging, objects may be thrown in

operator’s or bystander’s direction.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

• Thrown objects could cause injury to the

operator or bystanders.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

• Always wear safety goggles or other

suitable eye protection, long pants and

shoes while operating trimmer.

• Keep people and pets away from trimming

area.

Lengthening Cutting

Line

1. To lengthen line, firmly tap spool on the ground

while the motor continues to run. The line will

be fed from the spool and cut off to the proper

length by the cutting knife attached to the shield

(Fig. 13).

Remember to keep the trimmer ‘on’ while

lengthening the line. Just tap the trimmer on the

ground; do not hold it on the ground. After the line

feeds out, wait until you hear the line being cut to the

proper length before continuing to trim.

Note: To help prevent line tangle, tap only

once to lengthen line. If additional line

is required, wait a few seconds before

retapping trimmer head. Do not allow

line to wear too short. Keep line length

at full cutting diameter as much as

possible.

2. Lengthen line only when line has been shortened

by wear. Unnecessary lengthening will waste

line.

Note: The spool may wear during normal use

of the line advance feature and may

require occasional replacement.

Replacement spools are available

through your TORO retailer. See

page 10 for accessories.

GB–8

Replacing Cutting

Line

Prewound replacement spools can be purchased from

your local Toro retailer. The cutting line used by Toro

is specially formulated for use on your trimmer. Other

line may not provide the same high quality

performance.

POTENTIAL HAZARD

• Use of line other than proper monofilament

cutting line could cause personal injury.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

• Wire or other string-like substances could

cut through clothes, skin, etc. and cause

personal injury.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

• Do not use any type of wire or other

string-like substance.

• Use only TORO .065” dia. nylon

monofilament cutting line, 30 feet

maximum.

POTENTIAL HAZARD

• When trimmer is in operation, the cutting

head is rotating.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

• Contact with rotating cutting head could

cause personal injury.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

• Always be sure cutting head has completely

stopped rotating and trimmer is unplugged

before inverting trimmer.

• Never activate trimmer when it is in an

inverted position.

1. Disconnect trimmer from power source.

POTENTIAL HAZARD

• Cutting knife on grass shield is sharp.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

• Contact with cutting knife could cause

personal injury.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

• Be careful when removing spool. Avoid

contact with knife blade.

2. To remove empty spool, invert trimmer, place

hand over spool and press in tabs on each side of

cap (Fig. 14).

3. If there is any line on spool, hold free end of line

with one hand to prevent spool from unraveling

and with other hand grasp spool and lift off

spool and cap together (Fig. 15).

Note: If spring falls off cutter head during

this procedure, reinstall spring before

reinstalling spool and cap.

Note: Before reinstalling spool, be sure to

thoroughly clean out cutter head and

visually inspect for any damaged or

worn parts.

4. Unwind no more than three inches of line from

new spool and hold line and spool to prevent

unraveling.

5. Place cap on spool.

6. Insert line into eyelet in cutter head (Fig. 16) and

hold line with one hand while using your other

hand to place spool and cap on spring. Align cap

tabs with slots in cutter head, press in tabs and

push down cap and spool to lock cap in place

(Fig. 16).

Note: Spool may need to be rotated slightly

to allow it to be fully installed.

GB–9

POTENTIAL HAZARD

• An improperly installed cap or spool could

fly off trimmer.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

• Contact with a thrown spool or cap could

cause injury to operator or bystanders.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

• Be sure spool and cap are fully secured

before operating the unit. Replace spool if it

is damaged or if cap does not securely snap

onto cutter head.

• Keep bystanders and pets away from

trimming area.

7. If line should tangle or break at eyelet, unplug

trimmer, remove spool, refeed the line through

eyelet, and reassemble spool to trimmer.

Rewinding Empty

Spools

To rewind an empty spool, follow the steps below:

1. Hook one end of line into slot on spool,

allowing no more than 1/8” to protrude. Push

end of line all the way to the inner end of slot.

Wind line in direction of arrow on spool in level

rows between spool flanges (Fig. 17).

Note: Trimmer will not function properly

if line is wound in the wrong

direction or if end of line protrudes

more than 1/8” at inner end of slot.

2. Do not wind line beyond outer edges of spool;

trimmer will not function properly.

Maintenance

POTENTIAL HAZARD

• There is the possibility that trimmer could

be inadvertently started when the extension

cord is plugged into an electrical socket.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

• Inadvertent starting could cause personal

injury to operator or bystanders.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

• Always be sure your trimmer is unplugged

and the cutting head has stopped rotating

before attempting any maintenance or

repairs.

1. To keep the exterior clean, just wipe it off with a

damp cloth. Never hose it down.

2. Wipe or scrape clean the cutter head and spool

area any time there is an accumulation of dirt or

cuttings.

3. Check and tighten all fasteners. If any part is

damaged or lost, repair or replace it.

4. Scrape debris away from air intake vents in both

sides of motor housing (Fig. 18).

Important: Keeping air intake vents free of grass

and debris prevents motor overheating

and possible failure.

Important: To avoid damaging shield when

storing trimmer, rest trimmer on

cutter head or motor housing or

hang trimmer from handle(s). DO

NOT REST TRIMMER ON GRASS

SHIELD AS SHOWN (Fig. 19).

THE GRASS SHIELD MAY WARP

AND INTERFERE WITH

CUTTING LINE.

5. Any other servicing should be performed by an

authorized Toro Service Dealer.
