Keep the line tight and slide the cover ring 20 over
the smaller diameter of the spool.
Build in the spool as described above.
Note: Only use Bosch replacement line. It has been
developed specially for improved cutting and feed-
ing performance. The use of other line will lead to a
deterioration in performance.

After Trimming/Storage

Stop and remove plug from the power sup-
ply.
Clean the exterior of the machine thoroughly using a
soft brush and cloth. Do not use water, solvents or
polishes. Remove all grass and debris, especially
from the ventilation slots 7.
Turn the machine on its side and clean the cutting
guard 8 inside. If grass cuttings are compacted, re-
move with a wooden or plastic implement.
Hang the cable on the hook 10 provided. DO NOT
wrap/loop the supply/extension cable around the
hook and the guard together – this will cause the ca-
ble to be in contact with the guard blade which can
damage the cable. ONLY hang the cable on the
hook provided.
