Trimmer
The cord is advanced by tapping the cord housing lightly on the ground while the motor is
running at full speed.
Hold trimmer at an angle towards the area to be cut.
Figure 12 shows the best cutting zone. Always work from left to right.
Use cord to cut. Do not force cord housing into uncut grass. Wire and fences cause
accelerated wear and can break cord. Stones and bricks, curbstones and wood cause very
rapid cord wear. Work around trees and bushes. Bark and wooden ornaments, wood
cladding and posts can be damaged by the cord.

14. Storage (Important)
IMPORTANT!
If the brush cutter is stored for more than 4 weeks, it is recommended to drain all fuel from
the tank into an approved container. You can also let the engine run until the tank is
completely empty and the engine stops. Push several times on the primer to get the last
fuel out before machine is set for storage.
During storage over the vinter time, it is recommended also to empty the oil tank
completely.
Always store the brush cutter in a horizontal position (place it on a surface)!
Never re-use old gasoline and oil!
Clean the trimmer for grass and dirt and store it in frost-free conditions out of the reach of
children. Observe all safety instructions concerning safe storage and handling of gasoline.
