English Operating manual

– Always release the throttle and

reduce the engine to no load

when you are not cutting.

– Rotate the unit in the same

direction in which the blade is

cutting. This promotes cutting.

– Move one or two steps to the next

trimming area after swinging back

the unit and stand firmly again.

Follow these instructions to prevent

vegetation from wrapping itself

around the blade:

– Cut at full speed.

– Swing from right to left into

the vegetation which is to be cut

(Fig. 16).

– When swinging back, avoid

vegetation which has just been cut.

Installing the cutting line

(depending on model)

Always use a replacement cutting

line with a diameter of 3,0 mm.

If using a cutting line which has

a length other than the one indicated,

the engine may overheat or misfire.

There are two methods of replacing

the cutting line:

– Winding a new line onto the spool

– Fitting a coil with a prewound line

Winding a new line onto the spool

Fig. 17

 Press both retaining plates (1)

of the spool housing (2) and

remove the spool together with

spool cover (3).

Fig. 18

 Clean spool housing (1), spring (2)

and spool (3) together with spool

cover (4). Use a clean cloth.

 Check the toothing (5) for wear on

the spool housing (1), the spool (3)

and on the spool cover (4).

If required, replace damaged parts.

 Take approximately 3 metres of

new trim line and fold in half.

Note

Always use the specified line length!

The line may not be released correctly

if it is too long.

Fig. 19



Insert the folded end of the trim line

into the retaining plate of the spool.

 Wind the lines in tight, even layers

onto the lower and upper halves

of the spool. Observe the winding

direction indicated on the spool!
