exhaustive discharge and is defective. Remove
the battery from the equipment. Never use or
charge a defective battery.
6. Operation
To obtain maximum performance from your grass
trimmer, please follow these instructions:
•
Never use the grass trimmer without the
guard.
•
Do not mow grass when it is wet. The best
results are achieved with dry grass.
•
To switch on your grass trimmer, press the
ON/OFF switch (Fig. 11/Item 1).
•
To switch off your grass trimmer, let go of the
On/Off switch again (Fig. 11/Item 1).
•
Do not allow the grass trimmer near the grass
until the switch is pressed, i.e. the grass trim-
mer is in operation.
•
To cut properly, swing the machine sideways
while moving forwards. Keep the grass trim-
mer inclined at an angle of approx. 30° while
you do so (see Figs. 15 and 16).
•
If the grass is long, the grass must be cut
shorter in stages, starting from the tip (see
Fig. 17).
•
Use the guard hood to prevent unnecessary
wear.
•
To avoid unnecessary wear, keep the grass
trimmer away from hard objects.
•
To use the edge guide along walls or objects,
swing the edge guide forward to the front (Fig.
18). Swing it up when not in use (Fig. 19).
