OPERATION

Cutting the grass
Hold the grass trimmer at the angle of about 50° to the
ground. Move the grass trimmer from right to left slowly.
Cut the grass a few times from the top of the grass at
the tip of the nylon cord.
NOTICE:
Do not cut high grass at a time. Cutting
the high grass at a time near the root may cause the
nylon cutting head to be entangled by grass. This may
cause the motor overload, resulting in damage to the
grass trimmer.
NOTICE:
Use the grass trimmer without getting
the spool into a contact with the ground surface.
Using the spool contacting the ground surface may
cause the motor under overload resulting in damage
to the grass trimmer.
