7.3 Switching off the engine

Emergency Stop procedure:

If it becomes necessary to stop the equipment

immediately, set the On/Off switch (9) to “Stop”

or “0”.

Normal procedure:

Let go of the throttle lever (11) and wait until the

engine has changed to idling speed. Then set the

On/Off switch (9) to “Stop” or “0”.

7.4 Practical tips

Practice all the work steps with the engine swit-

ched off before you start to use the equipment.

Warning! Take extreme care during mowing

work. When doing such work keep a distance of

30 meters between yourself and other people or

animals.

Extending the cutting line

Warning! Do not use any kind of metal wire or

metal wire encased in plastic in the line spool. This

may cause serious injuries to the user.

To extend the cutting line (13), run the engine at

full speed and tap the line spool on the ground.

This will automatically extend the line. The blade

on the guard hood will cut the line to the permissi-

ble length (Fig. 9b).

Important: Remove all grass and weed rem-

nants at regular intervals to prevent the equipment

from overheating.

Grass and weed remnants become trapped under

the guard hood (Fig. 9c) and prevent the equip-

ment from cooling sufﬁ ciently. Remove the rem-

nants carefully using a screwdriver or the like.

Different cutting methods

When the equipment is correctly assembled it will

cut weeds and long grass in places which are dif-

ﬁ cult to access, e.g. along fences, walls and foun-

dations and also around trees. It can also be used

for „mowing“ down vegetation so that a garden

can be better prepared or a certain area cleared

down to the soil.

Please note: Even if it is used carefully, cutting

around foundations, stone or concrete walls, etc.

will result in the line suffering more than the nor-

mal level of wear.

Trimming/mowing (with line spool/cut-

ting blade)

Swing the equipment from side to side in a

scything motion. Always keep the cutting tool par-

allel to the ground.

Check the site and decide which cutting height

you require. Guide and hold the cutting tool at

the required height to ensure that you cut evenly

(Fig. 9d).

Low trimming (with line spool)

Hold the equipment right in front of you at a slight

angle so that the underside of the line spool is

above the ground and the line strikes the correct

target. Always cut away from yourself. Never

draw the equipment towards yourself.

Cutting along fences/foundations (with

line spool)

Approach wire mesh fences, lath fences, natural

stone walls and foundations slowly so that you

can cut close to them without striking the obstac-

le with the line. If, for example, the line strikes

stones, stone walls or foundations, it will wear or

fray. If the line strikes wire fencing, it will break.

Trimming around trees (with line spool)

When trimming around tree trunks, approach

slowly so that the line does not strike the bark.

Walk around the tree and take care not to dama-

ge the tree. Approach grass or weeds with the tip

of the line and tilt the line spool forwards slightly.

Mowing down to the ground (with line

spool)

When mowing down to the ground you will cut all

the vegetation. To do this, set the line spool at an

angle of 30° to the right. Place the handle in the

required position (Fig. 9e).

Caution! Increased risk of injury to the user,

bystanders and animals, and increased risk of

damaging property due to objects (e.g. stones)

being catapulted away.
