Cutting grass
• On small grass areas, hold the equip -
ment at an angle of approx. 30° and
turn evenly to the right and left with a
semi-circular movement.
• The best results are obtained with
maximum grass length of 15 cm. If the
grass is longer, mowing several times
is recommended.
• To cut around trees, fence posts or
other obstacles, go slowly around the
obstacle with the equipment and cut
with the thread tips.
• Avoid contact with solid obstacles
(stones, walls, board fences etc) oth-
erwise the thread will quickly wear out.
Use the edge of the protective cover
to keep the equipment at the correct
distance
Caution! Do not place the cut-
ting head on the ground during
operation!
Extending the cutting thread
The equipment comes with a double-
thread tap mechanism, i.e. both threads
extend if the cutting head is tapped on the
ground.
1. Hold the equipment in operation over a
grassy area and lightly tap the cutting
head a few times on the ground. This
extends the thread.
2. The thread cutter included in the pro-
tective cover cuts the thread to the
desired length.
If the thread ends no longer extend:
• Switch off the equipment.
• Press the reel insert until it stops and
give a strong pull on the thread end.
If no thread ends are visible:
• Replace the thread reel (see chapter
on “Changing the Reel”).
Caution! Thread remnants may be
thrown out and cause injuries.
If the Equipment Vibrates
Clean the equipment, remove any grass
remnants present on the cutting head and
in the protective cover.
Care and Maintenance
Have any work not described in
these instructions carried out by
our Grizzly service centre. Wear
gloves when handling the metal
cutting blade and thread cutter.
Risk of injury.
Never use metallic threads or
saw blades. The use of such non-
original parts can cause personal
injury and irreparable damage
to the equipment and will result
in immediate invalidation of the
guarantee.
Cleaning the Equipment
• Clean the cutting device and protective
cover of grass and earth after each
cutting procedure.
• Always keep the handles clean and
free of grass.
• Clean the equipment with a soft brush
or a damp cloth.
Protect the equipment from
damage!
The equipment is to be neither
sprayed with water nor placed in
water. Do not use detergents or
solvents. These could cause irrepa-
rable damage to the equipment.
