Edge cutting
Guide the trimmer along the edge of the lawn. Avoid contact
with solid surfaces or walls to prevent rapid wear of the cut-
ting line.
Cutting around trees and bushes
Carefully cut around trees and bushes so that they do not
come into contact with the cutting line. Plants can die if you
damage the bark.
Dismounting the spool, winding up the cutting
line and mounting the spool (see figures J to L)

line guiding
