the ground wire (or perpendicular to trim edges) and prepared the material
to be cut (but not touching).
Warning: Before starting work, make sure that the wire is long enough. Do
not start work before the engine running at full speed.
10 OPERATION
If the line is too long when you use the equipment for the first time, the
surplus end of it will be cut by the blade on the guard hood.
Your grass trimmer will work at its best if you observe the following instructions:
▪ Never use the grass trimmer without its safety devices.
▪ Do not cut grass when it is wet. The best results are had on dry grass.
▪ Do not move the grass trimmer against the grass until the switch is pressed, i.e. wait until
the trimmer is running.
▪ For the correct cutting action, swing the grass trimmer to the side as you walk forward,
holding it at an angle of approx. 30° as you do so.
▪ Make several passes to cut long grass shorter step by step from the top.
▪ Use the edge guide and the guard hood to prevent unnecessary wear on the line.
▪ Keep the grass trimmer away from hard objects in order to avoid unnecessary line wear.
10.1 Switching on and off (Fig. 5)
▪ Press the lock-off button (1) and squeeze the ON/OFF switch (2) to start the trimmer.
▪ To switch the appliance off, release the on/off switch.
CAUTION! After switching off, the nylon line will continue to rotate for a few
more seconds.
10.2 Replacement of the spool and line
▪ Press the sides of the spool cover and remove the cover
▪ Remove the empty line spool.
▪ Thread the ends of the line on the new line spool through the eyelets in the spool
receptacle.
▪ Fit the spool cover back in the spool holder.
▪ When you start the equipment again the line will be cut to the perfect length automatically.
CAUTION! Under no circumstances wind extra line on the empty spool but
instead replace it with a new one, the same as the original. The use of line
with different characteristics to those of the original can permanently
damage the grass trimmer as well as annulling the terms of the guarantee.
11 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Your tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of
maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and regular
cleaning.
▪ Regularly clean the ventilation slot in your tool using a soft brush or dry cloth.
▪ Regularly clean the cutting line and spool using a soft brush or dry cloth.
▪ Regularly use a blunt scraper to remove grass and dirt from the underneath of the guard.
