ADVANCING THE CUTTING LINE
AUTOMATICALLY
See Figure 7.
The trimmer includes the EZ Line™ Tap Advance
System.
Follow these steps to advance the cutting line
automatically.
1. Press the trigger and run at full speed.
2. Tap the retaining cap lightly on the ground while the
motor is running. Do not hold the retaining cap on
the ground.
Note: The line cutting blade on the grass deflector
will cut the line to the proper length.
Note: To help prevent line tangle, tap only once to
lengthen the line. If additional line is required, wait a
few seconds before retapping the retaining cap.
Keep the line length at or near full cutting diameter.
