  • Never douse or spray the unit with water or any other liquid. Do not wash the unit with a hose; avoid getting water in the motor and electrical connections. Do not use solvents or strong detergents.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

DO NOT handle the unit, plug(s) or cord(s) with wet hands.
DO NOT expose the unit to rain. Do not use the unit in damp or wet locations or conditions.
DO NOT operate the unit on wet surfaces.
DO NOT abuse the extension cord or the power cord on the unit. Never pull or carry the unit by the cord(s), use the cord(s) as a handle, close a door on a cord, pull the cord(s) around sharp edges or corners or yank the cord(s) to disconnect the unit. Grasp the plug(s), not the cord(s), to disconnect the unit.
- DO NOT modify the power cord, extension cord, power cord plug, extension cord plug or wall outlet in any way.
DO NOT use multiple extension cords.
- Keep the cords away from oil, water, sharp objects and heated surfaces.
- Keep the cords away from the cutting area and position the cords so that they will not be caught on branches or other obstacles that may bind or entangle the cords during operation.
- Keep the cords away from the operator's feet to prevent tripping.
- Make sure the cords are in good condition. Inspect the power cord and extension cord periodically. Look closely for deterioration, cuts or cracks in the insulation. If the power cord is damaged, have it repaired by an authorized service center. If the extension cord is damaged, replace it. Do not use a damaged cord or plug.
- If the extension cord is damaged in any manner while plugged in, disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle.
- Since the unit is double-insulated, a 2-wire extension cord (one without a ground) may be used. However, a 3-wire extension cord (one with a ground) that uses a NEMA-type connector (parallel blade, U ground) is recommended. Extension cords are available from local retailers. Use only round-jacketed extension cords approved for outdoor use.
- Make sure the extension cord is heavy enough to carry the current drawn by the unit. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge cord. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

REMINGTON RM115ST - ELECTRICAL SAFETY - 1

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, only use extension cords suitable for outdoor use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A or SJTOW-A cord types.

  • To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this unit has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will require the use of a polarized extension cord. The power cord plug will fit into a polarized extension cord only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain another polarized extension cord. A polarized extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall outlet.
  • A nameplate on your unit indicates the voltage used. Never connect the unit to an AC voltage that differs from this voltage.
  • Ground Fault Circuit Interruption (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlot(s) that will be used with the unit. For an extra measure of safety, use receptacles with built-in GFCI protection.
  • To reduce the likelihood of disconnecting the extension cord from the unit, be sure to use the cord restraint provided.
  • To reduce the risk of electric shock, avoid body contact with grounded conductors, such as metal pipes or wire fences.
  • Unplug the unit from the power source when not in use.

Servicing a Double-Insulated Unit

  • This is a double-insulated unit. Two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. There is no grounding provided and no means of grounding should be added to the unit. Servicing a double-insulated unit requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and should only be done by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated unit must be identical to the parts they replace. Failure to have a double-insulated unit repaired by an authorized service technician with identical replacement parts could result in serious injury.

TRIMMER SAFETY

  • The cutting head shield must always be in place while operating the unit. Do not operate the unit without both trimming lines extended and the proper line installed. Do not extend the trimming line beyond the length of the shield.
  • Adjust the position of the D-handle to provide the best grip.
  • Be sure the cutting head is not in contact with anything before starting the unit
  • Use only 0.065 inch (1.65 mm) diameter replacement line. Never use metal-reinforced line, wire, chain or rope. These can break off and become dangerous projectiles.

WORK AREA PRECAUTIONS

REMINGTON RM115ST - WORK AREA PRECAUTIONS - 1

WARNING: Do not expose the unit to rain. Do not use the unit in damp or wet locations or conditions.

  • Keep everyone - helpers, bystanders, children and animals - at least 50 feet (15 m) away from the work area. If anyone enters the work area, stop the unit!
  • Only operate the unit when visibility and light are adequate to see clearly.
  • Remove stones, nails, glass and wire from the area before operating the unit.
  • Only operate the unit during reasonable hours. Comply with times listed in local ordinances.
  1. Start the motor. Refer to the Starting and Stopping section.
  2. Slowly move the cutting head into and out of the cutting area at the desired height.

  3. Move either in a forward-backward or side-to-side motion. When cutting from side-to-side, cut from right to left whenever possible. This improves the unit's cutting efficiency and directs clippings away from the operator.

  4. Keep the cutting head parallel to the ground.
    Cutting shorter lengths produces the best results.

  5. Cut grass over 8 inches (200 mm) by working from top to bottom in small increments to avoid premature line wear or motor drag.

  6. Do not force the cutting head. 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.

  7. Only trim when grass or weeds are dry.

  8. Dispos of debris appropriately

Decorative Trimming

Decorative trimming is accomplished by removing all vegetation around trees, posts, fences and more.
- Rotate the whole unit so that the cutting head is at a 30^ angle to the ground (Fig. 12).

OPERATING THE UNIT AS AN EDGER

Tips for Best Edging Results

  • Convert the unit to edge mode.

  • Hold the unit with the motor to the operator's left side so that debris is thrown to the rear (Fig. 13)

  • Place the edge guide wheel on the sidewalk.

driveway, etc. and the trimmer line in the grass.

ADJUSTING THE TRIMMING LINE LENGTH

The trimming line wears down and becomes shorter

with use. This unit is equipped with an EZ Line Advance cutting head. The cutting head will automatically dispense more line whenever the unit is stopped and restarted.

NOTE: DO NOT bump the cutting head; this will damage the unit and void the warranty.

NOTE: Always keep the trimming line fully extended. Line release becomes more difficult when the cutting line gets shorter.

If the line becomes too short,

  1. Stop the motor. See the Starting and Stopping section.
  2. Wait two seconds and then restart the motor
  3. Repeat this process until the line length reaches the line cutting blade on the cutting head shield. The line cutting blade will cut the line to the proper length if any excess line is released. Remove the protective material from the line cutting blade before using the unit.
    The trimming line can also be extended manually:

  4. Stop the motor

  5. Disconnect the unit from the power source.

  6. Press and release the manual line release button while gently pulling both lines until they reach the line cutting blade (Fig. 14).

The life of the cutting line is dependent upon:

  • Following the trimming techniques previously explained
    What vegetation is cut

Where the vegetation is cut.

For example, the line will wear faster when trimming against a foundation wall as opposed to trimming around a tree.
