trimmer so that you can work safely and comfortably.

Trimming
While trimming keep the lawn trimmer away from your body at a
sufficient distance. Tilt the product slightly forward and move it
from left to right.
It is recommended to cut higher grass above 15 cm in several
passes.

are not damaged. Use the protective bow for better control.

Do not guide the cutting thread directly at walls and paving
stones. Otherwise it will prematurely wear off.
Thread follow-up
During trimming, the cutting thread wears (becomes shorter) or
it may tear off so that it can no longer cut grass.
Shortly press the running lawn trimmer against firm ground.
This will extend the cutting thread (15) (by approx. 4 cm). If the
cutting thread exceeds the maximum cutting diameter it will be
shortened by the integrated knife within the protective hood.

often exposed to vibrations damages to the nervous system or
to blood vessels may occur.
You can reduce vibrations:
- by thick and warm working gloves,
- shorter working time (have longer breaks).
See a doctor if your fingers swell, you don't feel well or your
fingers become numb.
