To obtain maximum performance from your
trimmer, please follow these instructions:
•
Never use the trimmer without the safety
guard.
•
Do not mow grass when it is wet. The best
results are achieved with dry grass.
•
To switch on your grass trimmer, press the
safety lock button (Fig. 12/item 13) and the
On/Off switch (Fig. 12 / Item 1).
•
To switch off your trimmer, let go of the On/Off
switch again (Fig. 11 / Item 1).
•
Do not allow the trimmer near the grass until
the switch is pressed, i.e. the trimmer is in
operation.
•
To cut properly, swing the machine sideways
while moving forwards. Keep the trimmer
inclined at an angle of approx. 30° while you
do so (see Figs. 14 and 15).
•
If the grass is long, the grass must be cut
shorter in stages, starting from the tip (see
Fig. 16).
•
Use the safety guard to prevent unnecessary
wear.
•
To avoid unnecessary wear, keep the trimmer
away from hard objects.
•
To use the edge guide along walls or objects,
swing the edge guide forward to the front (Fig.
17). Swing it up when not in use (Fig. 18).
