Push shaft release button (A) and move motor housing forward or backward to desired length. Sharpen knife using a flat file, being careful to maintain the angle of cutting edge. When starting the string-trimmer for the first time, check that the nylon line touch or pass over the wirecutting blade.

Take a secure hold of the grass trimmer and, without letting it touch the grass to be cut, push up the safety switch, then press the trigger on the upper handgrip. Let the string trimmer run for a few seconds and "bump" the stringhead against the lawn. NOTE: A short or worn trimmer line cuts less efficiently so, to improve its operation on subsequent occasions, bump the spool button lightly on the ground while the trimmer is running. (Fig 3-6B) These operations should be repeated a few times before starting work to make sure that everything is functioning properly and to familiarize yourself with the string trimmer. Start off slowly, when you have gained experience, you will be able to use the grass trimmer to its full potential. Align edging guide with mating grooves and push firmly in the direction shown until an audible snap is heard (Figure 3-1B).
