CUTTING METHODS – cont’d
Sweeping
Use the GasLess
TM
trimmer for
sweeping cut grass and debris from
walkways and driveways. Position the
line parallel to and above the surface to
be swept
(Fig. 17). Swing the trimmer from side
to side in a fanning motion. The air flow
from the rotating line will blow the grass
and debris from the surface being
swept.
NOTE: Be careful not to allow the bump
head to contact the ground, as this
could result in damage to the bump
head and/or releasing more trimmer line
from the spool.
Edging
Use the GasLess
TM
trimmer for edging
around walkways and flower beds.
WARNING: Always use long
pants, long sleeve shirt, gloves and
safety goggles and a face shield when
edging. Debris being thrown from the
trimmer at high speed can injure your
eyes and any exposed skin.
Hold the trimmer in a similar manner to
trimming, but with the trimmer head
rotated away from you body by 90°
(Fig. 18).
ADVANCING THE POLYMER LINE
As the trimmer is used, the polymer line
will wear down or the tips will break off.
To advance the polymer line and
expose a greater length, simply tap the
bump head on the ground while the
trimmer is turned ON.
