Maintenance Tips
For the String Trimmer:
- Clean After Each Use: After each use, remove any grass, dirt, or debris from the trimmer head, shaft, and motor housing. Use a dry cloth or brush to clean it. Avoid using water on the motor or electrical components.
- Inspect the String: Regularly check the trimmer string for signs of wear or damage. If the string is frayed or too short, replace it with a new precut line. Ensure the string is properly fed through the head to maintain smooth operation.
- Lubricate the Shaft & Motor: Apply a small amount of lubricant to the shaft and motor (following manufacturer recommendations) to reduce friction and keep the parts working smoothly.
- Check the Spool: Inspect the trimmer spool for proper alignment and ensure that the string is wound correctly. If the spool is damaged or worn, replace it to ensure optimal performance.
- Check Fasteners: Periodically check all screws, nuts, and bolts, especially around the trimmer head and handle. Tighten any loose fasteners to prevent parts from coming loose during operation.
- Battery Care: Fully charge the 2.0Ah battery before storage and store it in a cool, dry location. Avoid exposing the battery to extreme temperatures and recharge it periodically during long-term storage to maintain battery health.
For the Shoulder Strap:
- Inspect the Strap: Periodically check the shoulder strap for wear or damage. If you notice any tears or fraying, replace the strap for safety and comfort.

For the Battery & Charger:
- Battery Storage: Always remove the battery from the trimmer after use. Store it in a cool, dry place, avoiding areas with high heat or moisture.
- Charging: Charge the 2.0Ah battery using the included charger before each use. Avoid leaving the battery plugged in once it is fully charged to prevent overcharging.
