WARNING: ALWAYS WEAR SHOULDER HARNESS when operating unit with a

10.5 Trimming procedures
When properly equipped with a debris shield and stringhead, your unit will trim unsightly
weeds and tall grass in those hard-to-reach areas - along fences, walls, foundations and
around trees. It can also be used for scalping to remove vegetation down to the ground for
easier preparation of a garden or to clean out a particular area.
NOTE: Even if you are careful, trimming around foundations, brick or stone
walls, curves, etc., will result in above-normal string wear. To renew the wire,
press the lower spool knob against the ground with rotating trimmer.
