The Portland Electric 13" String Trimmer is a gardening appliance designed for trimming and edging tasks. It is an electric-powered tool, requiring a 120VAC/60Hz power supply and drawing 4A. The trimmer operates at a no-load speed of 7,800 RPM and uses a 0.065" Nylon line for cutting.
The primary function of this device is to cut grass and weeds using a spinning nylon line. It can be used for both trimming and edging operations. For trimming, the head can be adjusted to a vertical position, and for edging, it can be set to a horizontal position. The device features an automatic line feeding mechanism that activates when the trimmer stops. It also includes an Edge Guide to help limit striking objects while trimming nearby and can be flipped up when not in use. The working height of the trimmer can be adjusted by loosening and tightening the Length Sleeve.
