USING THE LINE TRIMMER

Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all objects, such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or line that can be thrown or become entangled in the cutting attachment. Clear the area of children, bystanders, and pets. At a minimum, keep all children, bystanders and pets at least 15m away; there still may be risk to bystanders from thrown objects. Bystanders should be encouraged to wear eye protection. If you are approached, stop the motor and cutting attachment immediately.

Before each use, check for damage/worn parts

Check the bump head, guard, shoulder strap, shoulder strap loop, and front handle and replace the parts that are cracked, warped, bent, or damaged in any away.

The line-cutting blade on the edge of the guard can dull over time. It is recommended that you periodically sharpen it with a file or replace it with a new blade.

WARNING: Always wear gloves when mounting or replacing the guard or when sharpening or replacing the line-cutting blade. Note the location of the blade on the guard and protect your hands from injury.

Check for blockage of the trimmer head

■ To prevent blockage, keep the trimmer head clean. Remove grass clippings, leaves, dirt and any other accumulated debris before and after each use.
■ When blockage happens, stop the line trimmer and remove the battery, then remove any grass that may have wrapped itself around the motor shaft or trimmer head.

After each use, clean the trimmer.

Adjusting cutting line length (Fig. J)

The trimmer head allows the operator to release more cutting line without stopping the motor. As line becomes frayed or worn, additional line can be released by lightly tapping the bump head on the ground while operating the trimmer.

NOTICE: Line release will become more difficult if the cutting line becomes too short.

WARNING: Do not remove or alter the line cutting the assembly. Excessive line length will cause the loss to overheat and may result in serious personal

Line replacement

NOTICE: Always use the recommended nylon cutting line with a diameter of 2.4-2.7mm. Using line other than that specified may cause the line trimmer to overheat or become damaged.

WARNING: Never use metal-reinforced line, wire, or rope, etc. These can break off and become dangerous projectiles.

1. Remove the battery pack from the line trimmer.
2. Cut 5 m long cutting line, insert the line into the mounting hole inside the eyelet (Fig. K). Push and pull the line from the other side until equal amounts of line appear on both sides of the spool.
3. Press, while rotating the lower cover assembly in the arrow direction, to wind the line onto the spool until approximately 15 cm of line is showing on each side (Fig. L).
4. Push the lower cover assembly down while pulling on the lines to manually advance the line and to check for proper assembly of the trimmer head.

NOTE: In case the line is pulled into the trimmer head by accident, open the head and pull the cutting line out from the spool. Follow the section "Reloading the cutting line" in this manual to reload the line.

Reloading the cutting line

When the cutting line breaks from the line outlet or the cutting line is not released when the trimmer head is tapped, follow the below steps:

1. Press the release tabs on the trimmer head and remove the lower cover assembly by pulling it straight out (Fig. M & N).
   NOTE: A flat head screw driver may be required to depress the release tabs.
2. Remove the cutting line from the spool.
3. With one hand holding the trimmer, use another hand to grasp the lower cover assembly and align

the slots in the lower cover assembly with the release tabs (Fig. 0). Press the lower cover assembly until it snaps into place with a distinct click sound.

1. Follow the instructions in "Line replacement" to reload the cutting line.

TRIMMER HEAD REPLACEMENT

WARNING: If the head loosens after it is fixed in position, replace it immediately. Never use a trimmer with a loose cutting attachment. Replace a cracked, damaged or worn out cutting head immediately, even if damage is limited to superficial cracks. Such attachments may shatter at high speed and cause serious injury.

Remove the trimmer head (Fig. Q1)

1. Remove the battery pack.
2. Insert the hex wrench provided into the shaft-locking hole on the motor housing to act as a shaft lock, hold it with one hand and try to push it inward. At the same time, use the other hand to rotate the trimmer head until the hex wrench is fully inserted.

Q-1 Shaft-locking Hole Q-2 Shaft Lock

1. Keep holding the hex wrench, rotate the trimmer head clockwise to remove it.

Install the trimmer head

1. Lay the trimmer on the ground or the floor with the drive shaft facing upward.
2. Align the screw hole on the trimmer head with the drive shaft, install the trimmer head onto the shaft by rotating it counterclockwise (Fig. Q2).
3. Install the hex wrench into the shaft-locking hole per the previous section, "Remove the trimmer head". Continue to tighten the trimmer head counterclockwise until fully tightened (Fig. Q3).

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: Before inspecting, cleaning or servicing the unit, stop the motor, wait for all moving parts to stop, and remove the battery pack. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious personal injury or property damage.
WARNING: When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage. To ensure safety and reliability, all repairs should be performed by a qualified service technician.

CLEAN THE MACHINE

■ Clean the unit using a damp cloth with a mild detergent.
■ Do not use any strong detergents on the plastic housing or the handle. They can be damaged by certain aromatic oils, such as pine and lemon, and by solvents such as kerosene. Moisture can also cause a shock hazard. Wipe off any moisture with a soft dry cloth.
■ Clear any grass that may have wrapped itself around the motor shaft or trimmer head.
■ Use a small brush or the air discharge of a small vacuum cleaner brush to clean the air vents on the rear housing.
- Keep the air vents free of obstructions.

SHARPENING THE LINE-CUTTING BLADE

WARNING: Always protect your hands by wearing heavy gloves when performing any maintenance on the line-cutting blade.

1. Remove the battery pack.
2. Remove the line-cutting blade from the guard.
3. Secure the blade in a vise.
4. Wear proper eye protection and gloves and be careful not to cut yourself.
5. Carefully file the cutting edges of the blade with a fine-tooth file or sharpening stone, being careful to maintain the original cutting-edge angle.
6. Reinstall the blade onto the guard and secure it in place with the two screws.
