NEUTON Corded String Trimmer -

Safety&OperatingInstructions

Protecting Yourself and Those around You

• Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children. Children are often attracted to the Trimmer and the

activity of trimming. Never assume that children will remain where you last saw them.

• Never allow bystanders, or pets in your work area when operating the Trimmer. The Cutting Cord on the NEUTON Corded String Trimmer

can throw sticks, small stones, gravel, and bits of debris over long distances. Stop the tool if anyone enters the area.

• Only allow responsible individuals who have a thorough understanding of these instructions to operate the Trimmer. Never allow children

to operate the tool.

• If you are ever unsure about an action you are about to take, please do not do it.

Dressing Appropriately

• Always wear protective goggles or safety glasses with side shields that are marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1 standard when using your

NEUTON Corded String Trimmer to protect your eyes from possible thrown debris.

• We recommend the use of ear protectors or earplugs rated for at least 20 DBA to protect your hearing.

• Wear shoes with non-slip treads when using the Trimmer. If you have safety shoes, wear them. Do not use the Trimmer while barefoot or

wearing sandals with exposed toes or heels.

• We recommend wearing long pants and rubber gloves while using this tool.

Preparing to Use Your Trimmer

• Read, understand, and follow all instructions on the Trimmer and in the manual. Be thoroughly familiar with the control and the proper use

of the Trimmer before starting.

• Thoroughly inspect the area where you will be using the Trimmer, and remove all wire, sticks, and any other foreign objects which could

become entangled in or thrown by the Trimmer Cord. Be particularly careful to avoid any wire bent outwardly into the path of the tool, such

as barbs at the base of a chain link fence.

Operating Your Trimmer Safely

• Do not use your NEUTON Corded String Trimmer for any job other than the intended use.

• Avoid unintentional starting - do not carry the NEUTON Corded String Trimmer with your finger on the ON/OFF Switch.

• Do not put any part of your body near the Trimming Cord when operating. Keep both hands on the Handles.

• Remove the power cord when inspecting, cleaning, or clearing any jammed material from the Trimmer Guard.

• Never pick up or hold the Trimmer by the Cutting Cord or Guard.

• Be aware that the Cutting Cord will coast to a stop after releasing the ON/OFF Trigger; it does not stop immediately.

• Do not operate the Trimmer in gaseous or explosive atmospheres. Motors in these tools normally spark, and the sparks might ignite fumes.

• Do not operate the Trimmer near electrical wires.

• Never over reach and keep proper footing and balance at all times.

• Do not force the Trimmer - it will do the job better and with less likelihood of a risk of injury when cutting at its own rate.

• Never operate the Trimmer in the rain.

• Watch out for traffic when operating near roadways.

• Operate only in daylight or in an area well lit by artificial light.

• Do not operate the tool when you are tired or under the influence of medication, drugs, or alcohol.

• If the Trimmer vibrates abnormally, stop the motor, remove the power cord, and inspect the tool for any damage. Check for alignment of

moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting and any other condition that may affect its operation. Repair the

damage before restarting and operating the Trimmer. NOTE: Excessive vibration is generally a sign of trouble.

• Do not operate the Trimmer if it does not start normally or stop normally with the ON/OFF Switch.

• Never use the Trimmer with a damaged or missing Guard.

• If you strike or entangle with an object, stop the Trimmer immediately. Check for damage and have any damage repaired before further

operation is attempted. Do not operate with a broken Hub or Spool.

No list of Warnings and Cautions can be all-inclusive. If situations occur not covered by this manual, the operator must apply common sense

and operate the NEUTON Corded String Trimmer in a safe manner. Visit our website at www.neutonpower.com or call Toll Free:

Chapter 3: Operating Your NEUTON Corded String Trimmer

Auxiliary Handle Adjustment

For maximum comfort and control, adjust the Auxiliary Handle (Figure 3) to suit

your height. For shorter users, adjust the Handle to a lower position (away from

you) and for taller users, adjust the Handle to an upper position (towards you).

You should adjust the Handle so that your front arm is straight. To adjust the

Auxiliary Handle, simply loosen the Adjustment Knob (counterclockwise), position

the Auxiliary Handle as required and then tighten the Adjustment Knob (Figure 3).

Height Adjustment

You can adjust the overall height of the Trimmer by loosening the Lock

Collar (Figure 3). Now you can adjust the Tubes shorter or longer. When you

achieve the desired height, rotate the Lock Collar back to the original

tightened position.

Starting the Trimmer

• Starting, stopping, and restarting an electric Motor repeatedly within a few seconds can generate a great deal of heat and damage the

Motor. To protect the life of your String Trimmer, always wait at least five (5) seconds after stopping before restarting the Trimmer.

• Before you start the Motor, be certain that the Cutting Cord is not in contact with any object.

1. Perform the Daily Checks listed on the back cover of this manual.

2. Connect the Trimmer to a working 120V outlet using a heavy-duty

outdoor extension power cord. Make a loop in the power cord and push

it up through the hole in the Handle and around the Cord Relief Hook

(Figure 4) then plug it into the Power Receptacle.

3. Push the Lock-Off Button IN (Figure 4) with your thumb and squeeze the

Trigger ON/OFF Switch (Figure 4) with your fingers. Once the Motor

starts you can remove your thumb from the Lock-Off Button. If the

Trimmer does not start, make sure you plugged the power cord into a

live 120V outlet (simply use a lamp to check the power outlet) and firmly

plugged the power cord into the Trimmer Power Receptacle.

4. To stop the Trimmer, simply release the Trigger ON/OFF Switch.

Line Feeding

Your NEUTON Corded String Trimmer uses .065" (1.65mm) diameter Nylon Line to cut grass and weeds quickly and easily. In time, the tip of

the Nylon Line will wear and the Auto Feed mechanism will automatically feed and trim a fresh length of Line. The Cutting Line will wear

faster if you trim heavier weeds or edge along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces. The Line will extend approximately 1/4" with each Stop

and Start of the ON/OFF Trigger Switch until the Line reaches the length of the Safety Guard Blade. Do not bump unit on ground in attempt

to feed Line or for any other purpose.

Clearing Jams and Tangled Lines (Figure 7)

Occasionally, especially when cutting thick or stocky weeds, the Line Feeding Hub may clog with sap or other material and the Line

will become jammed as a result. To clear the jam, follow these steps.

1. Turn OFF the Trimmer and remove the power cord.

2. Press the Release Tabs on the Line Spool Cover and remove the Cover by pulling it straight off.

3. Lift the Spool of Nylon Line out of the Hub and clear any broken Line or cutting debris from the Spool area.

4. In case of jams and tangled Line, unwrap about one foot (30cm) of Line to ensure that it is undamaged. If it is OK, rewind it and

insert the Line end through the Eyelet in the Spool Hub. Pull the Line through the Hole to maintain tension while placing the Spool

back down into the Hub with the notched side exposed.

5. Press the Spool down GENTLY and rotate it until you feel it drop into place. When in place, the Spool will turn a few degrees left

and right freely.

6. Snap the Spool Cover back on, plug in the power cord, and turn the Trimmer on. In a few seconds or less you will hear the Line

being cut automatically to the proper length.

Rewinding Spool from Bulk Line

You can purchase Bulk Line (.065" diameter) for your NEUTON Corded String

Trimmer at a local Lawn and Garden Store or purchase pre-wound

replacement Spools by visiting our website at www.neutonpower.com.

To install Bulk Line, follow these steps:

1. Turn OFF the Trimmer and remove the power cord.

2. Press the Release Tabs on the Line Spool Cover and remove the Cover by

pulling it straight off (Figure 7).

3. Lift the Spool of Nylon Line out of the Hub and discard any remaining

Line on the Spool.

4. Insert one end of the Bulk Line into the Hole in the Spool as shown

(Figure 8).

5. Snugly and evenly, wind the Bulk Line onto the Spool in the direction of

the Arrow until it is nearly full (about 10 feet of Line).

6. Insert the Line end through the Eyelet in the Spool Hub (Figure 7).Pull

the Line through the Hole to maintain tension while placing the Spool

down into the hub with the notched side exposed (Figure 7).

7. Press the Spool down GENTLY and rotate it until you feel it drop into

place. When in place, the Spool will turn a few degrees left and right

freely.

8. Snap the Spool Cover back on, plug in the power cord, and turn the

Trimmer on. In a few seconds or less you will hear the Line being cut

automatically to the proper length.
