• Release the power trigger after each working
operation to save battery power.
WARNING! Neither the operator of the
!
machine nor anyone else may attempt to
remove the cut material while the motor
is running or the cutting attachment is
rotating, as this can result in serious
injury.
Turn off the machine and remove the
battery before removing materials that
are wound around the trimmer head as
otherwise there is risk of injury. The
bevel gear can get hot during use and
may remain so for a while afterwards. You
could get burnt if you touch it.
WARNING! Watch out for thrown objects.
!
Always wear approved eye protection.
Never lean over the cutting attachment
guard. Stones, rubbish, etc. can be
thrown up into the eyes causing
blindness or serious injury.
Keep unauthorised persons at a
distance. Children, animals, onlookers
and helpers should be kept outside the
safety zone of 15 metres. Stop the
machine immediately if anyone
approaches. Never swing the machine
around without first checking behind you
to make sure no-one is within the safety
zone.

Grass trimming with a trimmer head
WARNING! Sometimes branches or
!
grass get caught between the guard and
cutting attachment. Always remove the
battery before cleaning.
Trimming
• Hold the trimmer head just above the ground at an
angle. It is the end of the cord that does the work. Let
the cord work at its own pace. Never press the cord
into the area to be cut.
• The cord can easily remove grass and weeds up
against walls, fences, trees and borders. However it
can also damage sensitive bark on trees and bushes,
and damage fence posts.
• Reduce the risk of damaging plants by shortening the
cord to 10-12 cm and reducing the engine speed.
