## Frequently asked questions

### What is a line trimmer and how do I use it?

A line trimmer is a piece of landscaping equipment that is designed to maintain the edges of lawns and gardens. To use a line trimmer, simply place the trimmer on its side to turn it on, then lift the trimmer into position. Using two hands on the machine, slowly guide the trimmer along the edges of your lawn in a straight line.

### How do I thread a weed eater?

To thread a weed eater, follow these simple steps:

1. Ensure the weed eater is switched off and the head has cooled off.
2. Remove the head and unscrew the start nut.
3. Insert your trimmer string into its respective holes.
4. Roll the string back in the direction you placed them in the holes.
5. Reinstall the reel and fit the two bits of string into the grooves.

For a more detailed description and illustrations on how to do this, see the instructions for use sheet provided with your weed eater when you hire a weed eater from Hirepool.
