machine for the fi rst time the line will be cut to the
perfect length automatically.
Using a brush or similar, carefully remove all resi-
dual grass from the underside of the guard hood
at regular intervals.
Diff erent cutting methods
When the equipment is correctly assembled it
will cut weeds and long grass in places which are
diffi cult to access, e.g. along fences, walls and
foundations and also around trees. It can also
be used for „mowing" down vegetation so that a
garden can be better prepared or a certain area
cleared down to the soil.
Please note: Even if it is used carefully, cutting
around foundations, stone or concrete walls, etc.
will result in the line suff ering above normal wear.
Trimming/mowing
Swing the trimmer from side to side in a scything
motion. Always keep the line spool parallel to the
ground. Check the site and decide which cutting
height you require. Guide and hold the line spool
at the required height to obtain an even cut (Fig.
19).
Low trimming
Hold the trimmer right in front of you at a slight
angle so that the underside of the line spool is
above the ground and the line strikes the correct
target. Always cut away from yourself. Never draw
the trimmer towards yourself.
Cutting along fences/foundations
Approach wire mesh fences, lath fences, natural
stone walls and foundations slowly so that you
can cut close to them without striking the obstac-
le with the line. If, for example, the line strikes
stones, stone walls or foundations, it will wear or
fray. If the line strikes wire fencing, it will break.
Trimming around trees
When trimming around tree trunks, approach
slowly so that the line does not strike the bark.
Walk around the tree, cutting from left to right. Ap-
proach grass or weeds with the tip of the line and
tilt the line spool forwards slightly.
Warning: Take extreme care during mowing
work. When doing such work keep a distance of
30 meters between yourself and other people or
animals.

Mowing
When mowing down to the ground you will cut all
the vegetation. To do this, set the line spool at an
angle of 30° to the right. Place the handle in the
required position. Remember the increased risk of
injury to the user, watchers and animals, and the
danger of damaging property due to objects (for
example stones) being thrown up (Fig. 20).
Warning: Do not use the equipment to remove
objects from footpaths, etc!
The equipment is a powerful tool and can throw
small stones and other objects a distance of 15
meters or more, causing injuries and damage to
cars, houses and windows.
Sawing
The equipment is not suitable for sawing.
Jamming
If the cutting blade jams as a result of attempting
to cut vegetation that is too dense, switch off the
motor immediately. Remove the grass and scrub
from the equipment before you restart it.
Preventing recoil
When you work with the blade, there is a risk of
recoil if it strikes solid objects (tree trunks, bran-
ches, tree stumps, stones or the like). This will
throw the equipment backwards in the direction
opposite to the rotation of the tool. This can cause
you to lose control of the equipment. Do not use
the blade near fences, metal posts, boundary
stones or foundations.
For cutting dense stalks, position the blade as
shown in Fig. 21 to prevent recoil.
7. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Danger!
Before putting away or cleaning the grass trim-
mer, switch off and remove the battery pack.
7.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
