Missing instructions for moving the head to position .

Thank you for sharing your experience and review! To adjust the cutting angle on the WORX WG163, first locate the adjustment collar on the shaft near the trimmer head. Rotate the collar to the unlock position, then tilt the lower shaft and trimmer head to the desired angle. Once the preferred angle is reached, rotate the collar back to the lock position to secure it. This allows the trimmer head to be positioned for easier access under shrubs, around obstacles, or in other hard-to-reach areas. If you would like to switch from trimming to edging, press and hold the conversion button on the handle and rotate the shaft 90 degrees until it clicks into the edging position. In edging mode, the cutting line will be vertical to the ground, allowing you to create clean edges along sidewalks, driveways, and flower beds. The shaft angle can then be adjusted further for comfort and better control while edging. For additional comfort, the auxiliary handle can also be repositioned. Press the handle adjustment button, rotate the handle to the desired position, and release the button to lock it in place. After making any adjustments, ensure all locking mechanisms are fully engaged before operating the trimmer. To provide you with trouble shooting assistance.

The Worx trimmer is light weight for me since I am a 77 years old female who uses it for my yard 0.6 acre. The directions in placing the trimmer together needs better instructions. Poorly visualized in the diagrams. Needs written instructions to forward its assembly. Utube better detail.
The instructions were okay but I had to go on youtube to see how to expand handle. The part you hold onto should have an adjustment on it. I am short and have a hard time holding it. It's still too heavy for me and uncomfortable to use. It's nice it came with 2 batteries but they don't last long. I would recommend for city people not country people.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I just got my weedeater and my blower put together today. I already did some weed eating as well as some blowing after I weedeated, everything works great. This is the second Worx weedeater that I have purchased. This one is better as there’s hard plastic around the upper portion, last time It was more of a rubber consistency, and it broke After about six years
