  • Extend the plant protection bar when working near sensitive areas.
  • The bar acts as a guide, maintaining a safe distance between the cutting line and the object.

  • After each use, clean the trimmer housing and guard with a damp asọ.
  • Remove any grass clippings, dirt, or debris from the cutting head and ventilation slots to prevent overheating.
  • Do not use strong detergents or solvents, as these can damage plastic parts.

Although the trimmer has an automatic line feed, the spool will eventually need to be replaced when the line runs out.

  • Ensure the trimmer is unplugged.
  • Refer to the specific instructions in your full product manual for removing the old spool and installing a new one. Use only genuine Ryobi replacement spools or recommended line thickness (1.6 mm).
