How to Prevent Grass from Wrapping Around the Shaft

  1. Trim in shorter passes
    • Avoid cutting very long or dense grass all at once.
    • Shorter passes reduce strain on the trimmer and help maintain a clean, steady cut.
       
  2. Keep the guard and shaft clean
    • Regularly remove grass and debris from the guard and shaft.
    • This improves performance and reduces vibration.
       
  3. Clear buildup promptly
    • If grass wraps around the shaft, stop the trimmer and remove the material before continuing.
    • Prompt cleaning protects the motor and ensures the tool runs smoothly.


Tip: Routine maintenance and careful trimming technique prevent motor strain and extend the lifespan of your line trimmer.
