Do not use the machine with a damaged, incorrectly
installed or removed cover.
m)
Always keep your hands, feet and other parts of the
body away from the cutting elements, especially
during the engine start.

no metal objects or other elements that could be
ejected by the cutting elements and cause damage
to property or personal injury.
p)
While starting the machine, be cautious and do not
approach the cutting elements.
q)
Make sure that your hands are in the correct position
while starting the machine. Firmly grip the machine
using both handles.
r)
The cutting head must not come into contact with
the ground or any object when the device is switched
on. The device must be switched on only when the
cutting head is parallel to the ground.
s)
Before each use make sure that all nuts and screws
are properly tightened and that the cutting head is
not damaged and that it is properly fitted.
t)
Unplug the device from the power supply:
before passing the machine to another user.
before leaving the machine without supervision
(even for a short time).
before removing blockages from any part of the
machine.
before carrying out any technical inspections, repairs,
cleaning or performing any maintenance operations,
such as replacing the cutting wires.

to check its technical condition after the device hits
an object.
u)
If the machine emits abnormal noises or reaches
abnormal vibration levels, immediately switch off the
machine, unplug it from the wall socket and search
for the cause of the problem. Excessive vibration may
damage the machine and injure the user.
ATTENTION! Despite the safe design of the device
and its protection facilities and despite the use of
additional elements protecting the operator, there is
still a slight risk of an accident or injury when using
the device. When using the device stay alert and use
common sense.
3. USE GUIDELINES
The device is intended to trim grass and weeds in areas
inaccessible for lawnmowers (e.g. under shrubs or just at
the edge of the lawn).
The user is liable for any damage resulting from

3.2. PREPARING FOR USE
ASSEMBLY OF THE DEVICE
Before assembling the device, make sure it is disconnected
from the power supply
Installing the guard
The device must be fully assembled before use.
To install the guard, place the device upside down
so that you can easily reach the cutting head. Slide
the guard into the groove over the cutting head and
secure the connection with a screw.
Safe location of the power cord
At the bottom of the main handle, there is a hook to
hang the power cord. The cord must be hung on the
hook to improve the device safety.
The power cord connected to the appliance must be
properly grounded and correspond to the technical details.

3.3. DEVICE USE
Adjusting the length of the cutting wire
Depending on the use of the device, the cutting wire wears
down and its performance decreases. The automatic wire
adjustment system allows increasing wire length.
To extend the cutting wire, while the device is in operation,
slightly press the cutting head against the ground
(preferably in the place where the length of the grass is
not important as the grass may get shortened). The cutting
wire will extend automatically. The blade mounted in the
guard will cut the excess wire to the desired length.
It is also possible to manually extend the cutting wire from
the spool.
IMPORTANT! Disconnect the device from the power supply
before manually adjusting the length of the cutting wire.
a)
place the device upside down so that you can easily
reach the cutting head.
b)
press on the centre part of the cutting head and pull
the wire by hand.
c)
stop pressing the head and trim the cutting wire (e.g.
with scissors) to the desired length or let the wire be
cut by the blade installed in the device guard during
its operation.
Replacement of the spool with the cutting wire
After using up the whole wire, you need to replace the
spool. To do this:
a)
disconnect the device from the power supply.
b)
when holding the plastic cover of the spool, press
the two securing clips that keep the spool in place.
c)
remove the old spool.
d)
to install the new spool, repeat the procedure in the
reverse order, remembering to first route the wires
through the holes in the cutting head.
CAUTION! Make sure the spool is properly installed.
If not, the spool may be ejected from the head
during operation.
Device height adjustment
To adjust the distance of the cutting head from the handles
(the height):
a)
unscrew the locking nut of the height adjustment
mechanism.
b)
Set the desired height
c)
Tighten the locking nut of the height adjustment
mechanism.
IMPORTANT! Make sure the locking mechanism is
properly tightened. A sudden change of the cutting
head position during device operation can cause loss
of control and result in an accident.
How to operate the device
a)
Check the work area before starting operation and
remove all objects or materials that can be ejected
by the cutting wire, entangled in it and those which
may cause a blockage.
b)
Maintaining a stable position, keep the device in
front of you using the main and auxiliary handles.
Make sure the cutting head is not resting on the
ground while the device is started.
c)
Press and hold the main switch on the device.
d)
Before you start cutting the grass, wait for the cutting
wire to reach its maximum speed.

e)
While holding the cutting wire parallel to the ground,
move the device from left to right, successively
reducing the cutting height. Continue work by
moving forward until the same result is reached
throughout the whole work area.
When cutting, always move forward. Do not move
backwards because you may come across obstacles
which you may not see. Do not move towards people
or objects such as walls, trees, vehicles etc. If the
rotational speed drops, immediately switch off the
device and unplug it from the power supply and then
check the cause of the problem.
Remove all materials that remain close to the guard
or the cutting head and check that the components
are not damaged before resuming operation. All
damaged parts must be replaced.
f)
After your finish operating the device, switch it off
and unplug it from the power supply.
Cutting the grass at a low height
To obtain a lower grass height, while operating the device,
tilt the cutting head to the left. Caution: the greater the tilt
to the left, the shorter the grass.

3.4. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

a)
Before each cleaning, adjustment, replacement
of accessories and if the device is not used, it is
necessary to pull out the mains plug and cool the
device completely.
b)
Use cleaners without corrosive substances to clean
each surface.
c)
After cleaning the device, all parts should be dried
before reusing it.
d)

and direct exposure to sunlight.
e)
Never spray the device with water jets.
f)
Remember to prevent water from penetrating inside
the device through vents in the housing of the device
g)
Clean the vents with a paintbrush and compressed
air
h)
Regular inspections of the device must be carried out
in terms of its technical efficiency and any damages.
i)
You may use a soft brush to clean the device guard
and the cutting head.
j)
Thoroughly clean and adjust the cutting wire during
each technical inspection, maintenance, and device
adjustment.
