a piece of new cutting line from the spool and
cuts off the used end of the cutting line
(12/2).
Risk of injury! Do not touch the sharpening
line cutter!
10 WORKING BEHAVIOUR AND
WORKING TECHNIQUE (13 – 14)
■
Tilt the appliance slightly forwards (approx.
30°) to mow with the tip of the cutting line.
Walk forwards slowly.
■
When mowing, swivel the appliance evenly to
the right and left.
■
Long grass must be mown in several passes.
Always work from top to bottom (13).
■
The appliance cuts best at very high speed.
Therefore do not overload the appliance by
cutting long grass.
■
If the appliance is overloaded in long grass,
the cutting line will block. Lift the appliance
immediately to relieve the load. Irreparable
damage can otherwise be caused to the mo-
tor.
■
Do not work with the appliance directly
against hard obstacles (e.g. Walls) and mow
from the side. This protects the cutting line
(14).
■
Keep the appliance away from delicate
plants.
Measures if the blade jams
Thick vegetation, young trees or undergrowth can
block the blade and bring it to a stop.
