Working with the trimmer
Hold the rotating line roughly parallel to
the ground (not inclined by more than
30°). This trimmer is not an edge trimmer.
Do not incline the trimmer so that the line
rotates at a right angle to the ground. The
resulting flying debris could cause severe
injuries!
With the trimmer switched on, hold it at an appro-
Î
priate angle and move it from side to side I J .
Maintain a minimum distance 610 mm between
Î
your feet and the protective cover K .
Practical trimming tips J K
Cut using the tip of the cutting line. Do not use
Î
excessive force when moving the cutting head
through uncut grass.
Note
Wire and picket fences result in increased
line wear and even in breaking of the line.
The line may wear quickly on stone and brick
walls, kerbstones and wooden surfaces.
Do not move the line head over the surface of the
Î
ground or other surfaces.
If cutting long grass, cut from the top to the bottom
Î
and when doing cutting do not exceed a height of
30 cm.
Hold the trimmer so that it is inclined towards the
Î
area to be cut.
When cutting, rotate the trimmer from left to right.
Î
This prevents cuttings hitting the operator.
Avoid trimming trees and bushes, bark, wooden
Î
slats, wall cladding and fence posts. The line could
quickly and easily damage them.
