SYMBOL MEANING
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your
attention to possible dangers. The safety symbols,
and their explanations, deserve your careful attention
and understanding. The safety warnings do not by
themselves eliminate any danger. The instructions or
warnings they give are not substitutes for proper
accident prevention measures.
NOTE: Advises you of information or instructions vital
to the operation or maintenance of the
equipment.
SYMBOL MEANING
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE OPERATING
Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the
controls and proper use of the unit.
Do not operate this unit when tired, ill or under the
influence of alcohol, drugs or medication.
Children and teens under the age of 15 must not use
the unit, except for teens guided by an adult.
Inspect the unit before use. Replace damaged parts.
Make sure all fasteners are in place and secure.
Replace cutting attachment parts that are cracked,
chipped or damaged in any way. Make sure the cutting
attachment is properly installed and securely fastened.
Be sure that the cutting attachment shield is properly
attached, and positioned as recommended. Failure to
do so can result in personal injury to the operator and
bystanders, as well as damage to the unit.
This unit was not designed to be used as a
brushcutter. Do not attach or operate this unit with any
type of brushcutting blade or brushcutting attachment.
Use only a 0.080-inch (2.03 mm) diameter original
equipment manufacturer replacement line. Never use
metal-reinforced line, wire, chain or rope. These can
break off and become dangerous projectiles.
Be aware of risk of injury to the head, hands and feet.
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove
rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, string and other
objects which may be thrown or become entangled in
the cutting attachment. Clear the area of children,
bystanders and pets; keep them outside a 50-foot
(15 m.) radius, at a minimum. Even then, they are still
at risk from thrown objects. Encourage bystanders to
wear eye protection. If you are approached, stop the
unit immediately.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY WARNINGS
Since the tool is double-insulated, a 2-wire extension
cord (an extension cord without a ground) may be
used. A 3-wire extension cord (an extension cord with

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
TIPS FOR BEST TRIMMING RESULTS
Keep the cutting attachment parallel to the ground.
Do not force the cutting attachment. Allow the tip of
the line to do the cutting, especially along walls.
Cutting with more than the tip will reduce cutting
efficiency and may overload the motor.
Cut grass over 8 inches (200 mm) by working from
top to bottom in small increments to avoid
premature line wear or motor drag.
Fig. 12
Each time the head is bumped, about 1 inch (25.4 mm)
of trimming line releases. A blade in the cutting
attachment shield will cut the line to the proper length if
any excess line is released.
For best results, tap the bump knob on bare ground or
hard soil. If you attempt a line release in tall grass, the
motor may stall. Always keep the trimming line fully
extended. Line release becomes more difficult when the
cutting line gets shorter.
NOTE: Do not rest the Bump Head™ on the ground
while the unit is running.
Some line breakage will occur from:
Entanglement with foreign matter
Normal line fatigue
Attempting to cut thick, stalky weeds
Forcing the line into objects such as walls or fence
posts
Do not remove or alter
the line cutting blade
assembly. Excessive line length will make the
clutch overheat. This may lead to serious
personal injury or damage to the unit.
CAUTION:
DECORATIVE TRIMMING
Decorative trimming is accomplished by removing all
vegetation around trees, posts, fences and more.
Rotate the whole unit so that the cutting attachment is at
a 30° angle to the ground (Fig. 13).
Fig. 13
Cut from right to left whenever possible. Cutting to
the left improves the unit's cutting efficiency.
Clippings are thrown away from the operator.
Slowly move the trimmer into and out of the cutting
area at the desired height. Move either in a forward-
backward or side-to-side motion. Cutting shorter
lengths produces the best results.
Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.
The life of your cutting line is dependent upon:
Following the trimming techniques
What vegetation is being cut
Where vegetation is cut
For example, the line will wear faster when trimming
against a foundation wall as opposed to trimming
around a tree.
