2-in-1 Grass Trimmer/Edger

Adjust the trimmer head angle to be the

lowest horizontal setting (See

“Adjust

the trimmer head angle to the lowest

horizontal setting”

, Fig H1). Then position

the Edger Wheel (8) on the ground for edge

mode (See Fig. I). There are two white lines,

located on each end of the Safety Guard (4),

that show the cutting plane of the trimmer

line. Align these marks with the edge of your

lawn.

While edging, allow the tip of the line to make

contact. Do not force the line. The wheel helps

to prevent the unit from touching the ground.

Take extra caution while edging as objects

can be thrown from the trimmer line.

10. AuTOMATIC LINE FEED SySTEM

When initially switching on the trimmer, a

small length of line is fed out.

A ‘clattering’ noise will be heard for a short

time. This is normal and is caused by the line

being cut by the line cutter. Once the line is

cut to the correct length, the ‘clattering’ noise

will stop and the trimmer motor will run at

full speed.

To feed more line, stop the trimmer

completely, then restart, allowing the motor

to reach full speed. Repeat this until you hear

the ‘clattering’ noise of the line cutting. (Do

not repeat this procedure more than 6 times)

11. MANuALLy FEEDING THE LINE (See

Fig. J)

Press and release the Line Feed Button (15)

(See Fig. J) whilst gently pulling out on one of

the lines until it has reached the line cutter.

When the required amount of line is fed out,

gently pull on the second line (there is no

need to press the Line Feed Button again). If

the line extends past the line cutter, too much

line has been fed out.

If too much line is fed out, remove the spool

cap and click the spool counter-clockwise until

the line is at the desired length.

12. REMOVING THE CAP

Press and hold in the two Cap Release

Latches (11) (See Fig. K).

Pull the Cutting Head Cover (10) away from

the Cutting Head (13). Keep the Cutting Head

Cover and the inside of the Cutting Head

clean from debris. To replace the Cutting

Head Cover, press it firmly onto the spool

holder. Ensure that it is correctly connected

by trying to remove it without depressing the

two Cap Release Latches.

13. CHANGING THE LINE SPOOL:

First take off the Cutting Head Cover (10) and

remove the old Spool (12). Place the new

Spool onto the Cutting Head (13). Feed one

line through the Eyelet (14), and then repeat

for the second line. Reattach the Cutting

Head Cover.

wARNING!

Your Trimmer is designed

to only use line with a maximum

diameter of 1.65mm. Only use nylon line.

IMPORTANT

- Always wind the line onto the

upper section of the spool first.

14. TO MANuALLy wIND LINE

Take approximately 5m of line and insert

15mm of line into one of the holes in the

upper section of the Spool (12) (See Fig L1).

Wind the line in the direction of the arrows

on the top of the Spool. Repeat process with

separate piece of line on lower section of

Spool (See Fig. L2 & L3).

Leave approximately 100mm of line unwound

and place it into the cleat. Repeat on the

lower section of the Spool.

Care should be taken to ensure that the line

is neatly coiled on the Spool (See Fig. L4).

Failure to do so will impair the efficiency of

the automatic line feed.

Then fit the Spool as described above in

“Changing the Line Spool”

mainTEnancE

After use, disconnect the machine from
the electrical outlet and check for damage.
Your trimmer requires no additional
lubrication or maintenance. There are no user
serviceable parts in your trimmer. Electric
powered trimmers should only be repaired
by an authorized repairer. Use only WORX
replacement parts and accessories.
Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean
your trimmer. Wipe clean with a dry cloth.
Always store your trimmer in a dry place
out of the reach of children. Keep the motor
ventilation slots clean. If you see some sparks
flashing in the ventilation slots, this is normal
and will not damage your trimmer.
