keeping  the  cutting  device  at  a  distance  from  the 
operator.
•  Cutting near fences/foundations (Fig. 14)
Slowly  approach  the  cutting  line  head  to  fences, 
posts, rocks, walls, etc. without hitting them hard. 
If the line strikes a solid object it could break or be-
come worn; if it gets tangled in a fence it could break 
abruptly.
In any case, cutting around pavements, foundations, 
walls,  etc.  can  cause  greater  wear  than  normal  in 
the line.
•  Cutting round trees (Fig. 15)
Walk round  the  tree from left  to right, approaching 
the trunks slowly so as not to strike the tree with the 
line and keeping the cutting line head tilted forward 
slightly.
Remember that the nylon line could lop or damage 
small  shrubs  and  that  the  impact  of  the  nylon  line 
against the trunk of bushes or trees with soft bark 
could seriously damage the plant.
Adjusting line length when working (Fig. 16)
This machine is tted with a “Tap & Go” head.
To release more line, tap the cutting line head against 
the round with the engine at top speed: the line will 
be released  automatically  and the knife  cut o the 
excess length.
END OF OPERATIONS
When you have nished your work:
–  Switch o the engine as indicated above (Chap. 6).
–  Wait for the cutting device to stop and t the blade 
guard.
WORKING TECHNIQUES
a)  3-point blade (Fig. 11)
Start cutting above the undergrowth and then move 
down with the scything blade so as to cut the brush 
into small pieces.
b)  4-point blade (Fig. 12)
Proceed  using  the  machine  as  a  traditionalscythe, 
with a circular movement of about 60-90°, thus mov
-
ing outside the undergrowth, andso on.  
c)  Cutting line head
WARNING!
Use ONLY nylon lines. The
use of metal lines, plasticised metal lines and/or
lines not suitable for the head can cause serious
injuries and wounds.
During  use  it  is  advisable  to  stop  the  engine  peri
-
odically and remove the weeds wound round the ma-
chine, so as to prevent the drive tube from overheat-
ing due to the grass caught under the guard. 
Remove the caught-up grass with a screwdriver to 
allow the rod to be properly cooled.
WARNING!
Do not use the machine for
sweeping, tilting the cutting line head. The po
-
wer of the engine could throw objects and small
stones 15 metres or more, causing damage and
injuries to people.
Cutting in motion (Scything) (Fig. 13)
Proceed at a regular pace, with a  circular motion 
similar to a traditional scythe, without tilting the cut-
ting line head during the operation.
First try cutting at the right height in a small area, so 
as to then achieve a uniform cutting height keeping 
the cutting line head at a constant distance from the 
ground.
For heavier cutting it can be useful to tilt the cutting 
line head by about 30°.
WARNING!
Do not work in this way if
there is the possibility of causing objects to be
thrown, which could harm people and animals
and cause damage.
Precision cutting (Trimming)
Keep the machine slightly tilted so that the lower part 
of the cutting line head does not touch the ground 
and the cutting line is at the required point, always
