USER MANUAL TRJ13STE Sun Joe

All Operators Must Read These Instructions Before Use

Before using this electric tool, carefully read and observe the safety rules and instructions listed below. Before starting work, make sure that you know how to stop the machine in case of an emergency. The incorrect use of this machine could cause serious injury. Keep these instructions in a safe place and on hand so that they can be consulted when required.

DANGER! The electric grass trimmer + edge should only be used for cutting lawns and for trimming along the borders of flower beds. Other uses of the trimmer + edge that are not indicated in these instructions could damage the unit or seriously injure the operator.

General Safety

1. Avoid dangerous environments - Do not use appliances in damp or wet locations. Do not use in rain.
2. Keep children and bystanders away - Children and other spectators, including pets, should be kept at least 50 feet (15 meters) away from the work area. When the grass is cut, stones and debris contained in the grass can be picked up by the trimmer + edger and dispersed into the air. These flying projectiles can cause blindness or other bodily injury.
3. Dress properly - Always wear suitable clothing when using the trimmer + edge to prevent head, hand, or feet injuries. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can get caught in moving parts.
4. Use safety glasses - Also use safety footwear, snug-fitting clothing, protective gloves, hearing and head protection.
5. Use the right tools - Do not use tools for any job except that for which they are intended.
6. Avoid unintentional starting - Do not carry plugged-in tool with finger on the trigger. Make sure the switch is off before plugging in the tool.

7. Do not abuse the cord - Never carry the tool by the cord or yank the cord to disconnect it from the receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

8. Do not force the tool - It will do the job better and with less likelihood of injury if it is used at the rate for which it was designed.

9. Do not overreach - Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
10. Stay alert - Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate the trimmer + edge when you are tired, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
11. Disconnect the tool - Turn the trimmer + edger off and disconnect the plug when: the unit is not in use; it is left unattended; it is being examined because it is not working correctly; the power supply cable is damaged; the blade is being removed or changed; or when the trimmer is being moved from one place to another.
12. Store idle tools indoors - When not in use, tools should be stored indoors in a dry and high or locked-up place out of the reach of children.
13. Maintain tools with care - Keep cutting edges sharp and clean for best performance and to reduce the risk of injury. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect the trimmer + edger periodically and replace if damaged. Repair the trimmer + edger only at an authorized service facility. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
14. Checked for damaged parts - Before continuing to use the trimmer + edger, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for the alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition that may affect the tool's operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless indicated elsewhere in this manual.

CAUTION! The safety guard is critical to the safety of the operator and the safety of people standing within a safe distance of the trimmer + edge. The safety guard keeps the unit in good working order and must always be in place during operation. Failure to have the guard in place during operation is dangerous and will void the warranty.

1. Keep away from the cutting line - It can seriously injure the skin.

2. Do not try to stop the cutting device with your hands - Always let it come to a stop by itself.

3. Inspect electrical cables - The insulation of the power cord should be perfectly intact. If the power cord is damaged or shows any signs of cracks, do not use the trimmer. Contact your authorized Snow Joe ^圆 + Sun Joe dealer or call the Snow Joe ^圆 + Sun Joe ^圆 customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563).

CAUTION! The trimmer line spool will continue to rotate after turning the trimmer OFF. Wait until the trimmer line spool has completely stopped before making contact.

• Only use the same type of line originally provided with the tool.
• Do not use the unit to cut grass that is not in contact with the ground.
• Do not switch the string trimmer + edger ON in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces or in the presence of flammable and/or explosive substances such as liquids, gases, and powders.
• The user of the trimmer + edger is responsible for any damage sustained by third parties that has been caused by the grass trimmer within the working area.
• Only cut during broad daylight or with adequate artificial light.
• Do not cross roads or gravel paths while the unit is still running.
• When the trimmer + edger is not in use, store it in a dry place and out of the reach of children.
• The trimmer + edger must be operated in a vertical position, perpendicular to the ground.
• Check regularly that all screws are properly secured.

Electrical Safety

1. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for this electric grass trimmer. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of safety.
2. Make sure that the mains voltage matches that listed on the unit's rating label. Using the improper voltage can damage the motor and injure the user.
3. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (i.e. one blade is wider than the other). Use this appliance only with a polarized UL-, CSA- or ETL-listed extension cord recommended for outdoor, all-weather use.

The appliance plug will fit into a polarized extension cord only one way. If the appliance plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. The extension cord 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. Do not modify the appliance plug, extension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.

1. To prevent electric shock, use only with an extension cord suitable for outdoor use, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.

Before use, check that the extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, make sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.

WARNING

Electric shock may cause SEVERE INJURY or DEATH. Heed these warnings:

• Do not allow any part of the electric grass trimmer + edge to make contact with water while it is in operation. If the appliance becomes wet while turned off, wipe dry before starting.
• Use only a UL-, CSA- or ETL-rated extension cord for outdoor, all-weather use.
• Do not use an extension cord over 100 ft (30 m).
• Do not touch the appliance or its plug with wet hands or while standing in water. Wearing rubber boots offers some protection.

Additional Electrical Safety Rules

• The voltage must correspond to the one marked on the technical data plate (120V~60 Hz). Do not use other sources of power.
• The power line should have a circuit breaker no lower than 10 A. Consult an electrician if this is not the case.
• Never pass the grass trimmer + edger over the extension cord when the grass trimmer + edger is in use as this could cut the cord. Make sure you know where the cord is at all times.
• Use the special cord restraint hook to connect the extension cord.
• Never use the tool when it is raining or when excessively moist and humid conditions are present. Do not cut damp grass or leave the tool outside overnight.
• The power supply cable should be checked regularly to make sure it is perfectly intact without any signs of wear or damage. If the cable is not in good condition, do not use the unit.
• Only use an extension cable that is rated for outdoor use. Keep the extension cord away from the cutting area, sharp edges, heat, fuels, damp areas, and oily surfaces.
• Damage to unit - If the trimmer + edger strikes a foreign object or becomes entangled with it, stop the tool immediately. Unplug it, check for damage, and have any damage repaired before proceeding with operation. Do not operate the tool with a broken hub or spool. Contact your authorized Snow Joe ^® + Sun Joe dealer or call the Snow Joe ^® + Sun Joe customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563).
• Damage to cord - Keep power cord away from the rotating line. If you damage the cord, unplug it from the power supply before moving the tool or examining the damage. A damaged cord must be replaced before further use.
• Do not operate portable electric tools in gaseous or explosive atmospheres - Motors in these tools normally spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.
• Maintain appliances with care - Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

Double-Insulated Appliances

In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing a double-insulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be performed only by qualified service personnel at an authorized Snow Joe ^® + Sun Joe dealer. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they replace. A double-insulated appliance is marked with the words "Double Insulation" or "Double Insulated." The symbol l (square within a square) may also be marked on the appliance.

1. To switch OFF, release the ON/OFF trigger switch (Fig. 15).

Trimming

• Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and protection.
• For the best cutting action against walls, fences, and in high grass, move the grass trimmer slowly so grass is cut with the tip of the high speed nylon line.
• Avoid dragging the grass trimmer and string spool hub in contact with the ground.
• Trim only when grass and weeds are dry.

NOTE: As the weather becomes cooler, the tendency for the nylon line to break becomes greater. DO NOT USE WHEN TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 50^ (10^)

• Cut tall grass from top down. This will prevent grass from wrapping around the shaft housing and string head which may cause damage from overheating.

• If grass becomes wrapped around the string head: - Stop the trimmer.

• Unplug the string trimmer.

• Remove the grass.

• Hold the grass trimmer with your right hand on the rear handle and your left hand on the front auxiliary handle. The trimmer + edge should be held at a comfortable position with the rear handle about hip height.

WARNING! Always hold the trimmer away from body. Any contact with the grass trimmer cutting head while operating can result in serious personal injury.

The life of your nylon line is dependent upon following instructions for proper use, as well as what is being cut, and where the cutting is being done.

WARNING! Remove stones, loose pieces of wood, and other objects from the cutting area. The string continues to rotate for a few seconds after switching off the trimmer. Let the motor come to a complete stop before resuming operation. Do not rapidly switch the trimmer off and on.

CAUTION! Always wear eye protection.

1. Hold the trimmer at an angle of approximately 10 - 30 degrees to the work area (Fig. 16).

1. Slowly swing the trimmer from side to side (Fig. 17).

1. Do not overload your trimmer; instead, take small "bites" of grass, working from the top to the bottom. This will keep the machine operating at high speed and will greatly improve its cutting efficiency (Fig. 18).

Edging

1. To convert for maintenance edging, turn OFF and unplug the tool.
2. To use the edge guide + flower guard, flip it down from its stored position (Fig. 19).

1. Pull up edging coupler and turn the rear handle counterclockwise and release (Fig. 20). The tool is locked in edge mode.

1. Rotate the whole unit 180 degrees. The tool is now ready to be used in edge mode (Fig. 21).

1. Use the edge of the guard as a guide when cutting near fences and walls (Fig. 22).

1. Move the edger in a backwards direction when trimming around edges to avoid damage.

WARNING! Do not trim near electrical wires.

Advancing Strings

NOTE: Your trimmer uses 0.063 in. (1.6 mm) diameter nylon line to cut grass and weed quickly and easily. In time, the tip of the nylon line will become worn and the auto-feed mechanism will automatically feed and trim a fresh length of line. The cutting line will wear faster if the cutting is done along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are being cut.

The trimmer + edge is equipped with an auto-feed head. Bumping the head to try to advance the string will damage trimmer.

1. With the unit running, release the ON/OFF switch trigger.
2. Wait two seconds, and press the ON/OFF switch trigger.

NOTE: The strings will extend approximately 1/4 in. with each stop and start of the switch trigger until the strings reach the length of the safety guard.

1. Resume the trimming + edging.

WARNING! Do not operate the grass trimmer + edge in a tree, on a ladder, or on a scaffold; this is extremely dangerous.

WARNING! Do not bump the unit on ground in attempt to feed line or for any other purpose.

Maintenance

WARNING! Make sure to unplug your electric grass trimmer + edge before inspecting its parts.

WARNING! Always wear protective gloves during maintenance tasks. Do not carry out maintenance when the motor is running or hot.

• Your trimmer line can dry out over time. To keep your line in top condition, store spare pre-wound spools or bulk line in a plastic resealable bag with a tablespoon of water.
• Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your grass trimmer + edgeer. Wipe it clean with a dry cloth.
• Plastic parts may be cleaned by using mild soap and a damp rag.
  Always store your grass trimmer ^+ edger in a dry place. Do not allow any liquid to get inside it.
• Keep the motor ventilation slots clean.
• If you see some sparks flashing in the ventilation slots, this is normal and will not damage your power tool.

IMPORTANT! To ensure product safety and reliability, repairs, maintenance, and adjustments to this power tool should be performed only with identical replacement parts. Contact your authorized Snow Joe ^念 + Sun Joe dealer or call the Snow Joe ^念 + Sun Joe customer service center at 1-866-SNOWJOE (1-866-766-9563) for assistance.

Replacing the Spool + Clearing Jams and Tangled Lines

1. Press together both release tabs on the line spool cover and remove the cover by pulling it straight off (Fig. 23).

1. Lift and remove the sleeve and spool out of the hub (Fig. 24) and clean out any dirt or grass residue.

1. In case of jams or tangled line, unwrap about 6 inches (15 cm) of line to ensure that it's not damaged.

2. If it appears undamaged, rewind it and insert each line end through the two slots on each side of the sleeve. Place the sleeve over the spool (Fig. 25).

1. Insert each line end through its respective slot on each side of the hub and gently press the spool down (Fig. 26).

1. Reinstall the spool cover by depressing the release tabs into their slots in the hub, and push down until the spool cover clicks into place.
2. Connect the tool to a power source and turn the tool on. In a few seconds, you will hear the line being cut automatically to the proper length.

Winding the Line

NOTE: A dual-line factory wound spool (model TRJ13STE-RS-6PK) is available for easy spool replacement on the TRJ13STE electric grass trimmer + edge. Visit sunjoe.com to purchase this accessory online. Should you wish to wind the line yourself, the instructions are provided below. Self-winding, however, is NOT recommended because if the line is not wound properly it can cause the trimmer's auto feed system to malfunction. For this reason, users are strongly urged to purchase the pre-wound spool.

1. Unplug the grass trimmer.
2. To remove the spool from the trimmer hub, follow steps 1 and 2 from the section "Replacing the Spool + Clearing Jams and Tangled Lines" beginning on page 12.
3. Find the middle of a new piece of 0.063 inch nylon line (up to 16 feet total with 8 feet on both ends), and insert the middle of the line into the groove in the center of the spool (Fig. 27).

1. Wind both ends into the grooves using slight tension and following the direction of the arrows (Fig. 28).

1. Re-install the spool as instructed in steps 4 to 7 of "Replacing the Spool + Clearing Jams and Tangled Lines".

CAUTION! Catapulted pieces of nylon line may cause injury.

NOTE: The maximum recommended length of line in the spool is 16.4 ft (5 m), with 8 ft (2.5 m) per slot.

WARNING! Pay attention to the winding direction.

NOTE: Always replace the spool with a new pre-wound spool. Visit sunjoe.com to purchase the pre-wound spool (model TRJ13STE-RS-6PK) for this electric trimmer + edger.

IMPORTANT: Keep all areas of the cutting head and cutting head cover clean. Place the cap back by pushing it firmly onto the cutting head. To ensure that the cutting head cover is correctly fitted, try to remove it without depressing the two latches. If it is correctly fitted, it should not move.

Storage

Follow these recommendations for storing the trimmer.

• Clean the trimmer + edger thoroughly before storing.
• Store the trimmer + edger in a stable and safe position out of the reach of children. Keep the trimmer in a dry place where the temperature is not too hot or too cold.
• When storing the trimmer + edger, do not rest it against the floor. Hang it by the upper handgrip so that the guard does not touch anything. If the guard rests against a surface, its shape and dimensions could be permanently altered, and could render the machine unsafe to use.
