OPERATION
OPERATE SAFELY AND AVOID
DAMAGE TO TRIMMER
• Keep both hands on handles when engine is running. •
• If cutter becomes clogged, stop engine and clean cutter.
• Do not overreach or stand on unstable surfaces.
• If the cutter head strikes an obstruction or is prevented •
from turning freely, stop engine and inspect cutter head
for damage.
If the trimmer is operated for extended periods in
high temperatures, the driveshaft housing may become
very hot (too hotto touch). Allow unit to cool, check lubri¬
cation as outlined in service section before continuing.
To avoid engine damage, do not run at full throttle
without load.
ADJUSTING LINE LENGTH
RECOMMENDED LINE LENGTH: 5 inches (measured
from edge of cutting head to tip of line).
NOTE: Trimming is done with the tip of the line. Cutting
with entire length of the tine will result in the line
snapping or fraying.
If line is too long, cut-off knife will cut line to length
during operation.
ADJUSTMENT (G.T.-2101, Echomatlc Head)
1. With engine running at normal operating speed, tap
head firmly on the ground.
NOTE: One inch of line will be released each time head
is tapped.
ADJUSTMENT (G.T.-1100, GT Head)
1. With engine stopped, unwind line from spool until
proper length is achieved.
