Trimming
Hold the bottom of the trimmer head above the ground and
at an angle if desired. Allow only the SharperBlade™ to make
contact. Do not force SharperBlade™ into work area (Fig. 12).
Scalping
The scalping technique removes unwanted vegetation down to
the ground. Hold the bottom of the trimmer head about 3 in.
(8 cm) above the ground and at an angle. Allow the tip of
the SharperBlade
to strike the ground around trees, posts,
monuments, etc. This technique increases SharperBlade
wear (Fig. 13).
Mowing
Your trimmer is ideal for mowing in places conventional lawn
mowers cannot reach. In the mowing position, keep the
SharperBlade
parallel to the ground. Avoid pressing the head
into the ground as this can scalp the ground and damage the
tool (Fig. 14).
