I. 27-28 PRODUCT REFERENCES, ILLUSTRATIONS AND SPECIFICATIONS All information, illustrations and specifications in this manual are based on the latest product information available at the time of printing. Bump HeadTM is a trademark of Ryobi Outdoor Products. SERVICE INFORMATION Service on this unit both within and after the warranty period should be performed only by an authorized and approved service dealer. [. . . ] · The right arm is slightly bent, and the hand is holding the shaft grip. · The left arm is straight, and the hand is holding the handle. · The cutting attachment is parallel to the ground and easily contacts the vegetation to be cut without the operator having to bend over. Each time the head is bumped, about 1 inch (25. 4 mm. ) of trimming line is released. A blade in the cutting attachment shield will cut the line to the proper length if excess line is released. Line release becomes more difficult as the cutting line becomes shorter. NOTE: Do not rest the Bump HeadTM on the ground. CAUTION: Do not remove or alter the line cutting blade assembly. This may lead to serious personal injury or damage to the unit. Some line breakage will occur from: · Entanglement with foreign matter · Normal line fatigue · Attempting to cut thick, stalky weeds · Forcing the line into objects such as walls or fence posts TIPS FOR BEST TRIMMING RESULTS · Keep the cutting attachment parallel to the ground. Cutting with more than the tip will reduce cutting efficiency and may overload the engine. · Cut grass over 8 inches (200 mm. ) by working from top to bottom in small increments to avoid premature line wear or engine drag. Fig. · Slowly move the trimmer into and out of the cutting area at the desired height. · In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces or use a mister attachment when water is available. · Conserve water by using power blowers instead of hoses for many lawn and garden applications, including areas such as gutters, screens, patios, grills, porches, and gardens · Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly washed cars, and blow debris away. Dispose of debris in trash receptacles.
