6. Operation

The electric grass trimmer is designed only to cut

The electric grass trimmer has a fully automatic
line extension system. If the line of the electric
grass trimmer is reduced through operation, it is
automatically extended to the maximum cutting
width. This ensures that you can cut your lawn
with the perfect cutting width at all times.
Caution! If the line is too long when you use the
equipment for the fi rst 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 ob-
