56 VOLT LITHIUM-ION COMMERCIAL CORDLESS LINE TRIMMER — STX450016
USING WITH LINE TRIMMER HEAD
WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, wear
goggles or safety glasses at all times when operating this
unit. Wear a face mask or dust mask in dusty locations.
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all
objects, such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or line
that can be thrown or become entangled in the cutting
attachment. Clear the area of children, bystanders,
and pets. At a minimum, keep all children, bystanders
and pets at least 15m away; there still may be risk to
bystanders from thrown objects. Bystanders should be
encouraged to wear eye protection. If you are approached,
stop the motor and cutting attachment immediately.
Before each use, check for damage/worn parts
Check the bump head, guard and loop handle and replace
the parts that are cracked, warped, bent, or damaged in
any away.
The line-cutting blade on the edge of the guard can
dull over time. It is recommended that you periodically
sharpen it with a file or replace it with a new blade.
After each use, clean the trimmer.
CAUTION: Obstructions in the vents will prevent
the air from flowing into the motor housing and result in
overheating or damaged of the motor.
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the
machine. Never let any liquid get inside the machine;
never immerse any part of the machine into a liquid.
Keep air vents in the motor housing from debris at all
times.
WARNING: Never use water for cleaning your
trimmer. Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts.
Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various
types of commercial solvents. Use clean cloths to remove
dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
Check for blockage of the trimmer head
To prevent blockage, keep the trimmer head clean.
Remove grass clippings, leaves, dirt and any other
accumulated debris before and after each use.
When blockage happens, stop the line trimmer and
remove the battery, then remove any grass that may
have wrapped itself around the motor shaft or trimmer
head.
Adjusting cutting line length (Fig. L)
The trimmer head allows the operator to release more
cutting line without stopping the motor. As line becomes
frayed or worn, additional line can be released by lightly
tapping the bump head on the ground while operating
the trimmer.
NOTICE: Line release will become more difficult if the
cutting line becomes too short.
WARNING: Do not remove or alter the line cutting
blade assembly. Excessive line length will cause the motor
to overheat and may result in serious personal injury.
Line replacement
NOTICE:
Always use the recommended nylon cutting line
with a diameter that does not exceed 2.7 mm. Using line
other than that specified may cause the line trimmer to
overheat or become damaged.
WARNING: Never use metal-reinforced line, wire,
or rope, etc. These can break off and become dangerous
projectiles.
1. Remove the battery pack from the line trimmer.
2. Cut 6 m long cutting line, insert the line into the
mounting hole inside the eyelet (Fig. M1). Push and
pull the line from the other side until equal amounts
of line appear on both sides of the spool.
3. Press, while rotating the lower cover assembly in the
arrow direction, to wind the line onto the spool until
approximately 15 cm of line is showing on each side
(Fig. M2).
4. Push the lower cover assembly down while pulling on
the lines to manually advance the line and to check
for proper assembly of the trimmer head.
Reloading the cutting line
When the cutting line breaks from the line outlet or the
cutting line is not released when the trimmer head is
tapped, follow the below steps:
1. Press the release tabs on the upper cover and
remove the lower cover assembly by pulling it
straight out (Fig. N1).
2. Remove the cutting line from the spool.
3. With one hand holding the trimmer, use another hand
to grasp the lower cover assembly and align the tabs
on the upper cover with the slots in the lower cover
assembly (Fig. N2); Press the lower cover assembly
until it snaps into place with a distinct click sound.
