GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
S The filing angle is 15 degrees. File alter-
nate teeth to the right and those in be-
tween to the left. If the blade has been
heavily pitted by stones it may be neces-
sary to dress the top edges of the teeth
with a flat file, in exceptional cases. If so,
this should be done before filing with a
round file. The top edges must be filed
down by the same amount for all the
teeth.
S Adjust the blade setting. This should be
0.05 inch (1 mm).

Trimmer head
IMPORTANT!
Always ensure the trimmer line is wound
tightly and evenly around the drum, other-
wise the machine will generate harmful
vibration.
S Only use the recommended cutting at-
tachments. See the section on "Technical
data".
S Smaller machines generally require small
trimmer heads and vice versa. This is be-
cause when clearing using trimmer line
the engine must throw out the trimmer
line radially from the trimmer head and
overcome the resistance of the grass
being cleared.
S The length of the trimmer line is also im-
portant. A longer trimmer line requires
greater engine power than a shorter
trimmer line of the same diameter.
S Make sure that the cutter on the trimmer
guard is intact. This is used to cut the
trimmer line to the correct length.
S To increase the life of the trimmer line it
can be soaked in water for a couple of
days. This will make the line tougher so
that it lasts longer.
