Caring for your string trimmer after use

Every year it gets tougher to make the garden last all season, and the grass trimmers are no exception. If you leave them out for a long period of time, they'll eventually rust.

They'll also start to get dirty with grass and other debris, which can make them harder to clean. And, if you're using them to trim your lawn, they'll absorb more moisture, which can lead to rust and clogging.

When you are done using your grass trimmer, you should immediately unplug it from the power source and remove the attachment you were using. Never leave your trimmer on before cleaning or storing it.

You should clean the blades of your trimmer after use by using a brush and cleaning the underside of the blades. You should also clean the grass off of the blade using a rag wet with alcohol.

After cleaning, store the trimmer so that it will not collect dirt and dust and will be protected from moisture. Store your trimmer in a dry place, either in the shed or garage, until you need to use it again.
