IMPORTANT:
Remove all grass and weed remnants at regular intervals to prevent the shaft tube
overheating. Lawn, grass and weed remnants become trapped under the safety guard, preventing the
shaft tube from receiving adequate ventilation. Remove the remnants carefully using a suitable
tool. Do not use bare hands.
Different cutting methods
When the machine is correctly assembled it will cut weeds and long grass in places that are difficult
to access, e.g. along fences, walls, foundations, and trees. It can also be used for ‘mowing’ down
vegetation to prepare a garden for other applications.
ATTENTION:
Even if it is used carefully, cutting around foundations, stone or concrete walls
will result in the line suffering more than normal wear.
Trimming/mowing
Swing the trimmer from side to side in a scything motion. Always keep the line spool parallel to the
ground. Check the site and decide which cutting height you require. Guide and hold the line
spool at the required height to obtain an even cut.
Low trimming
Hold the trimmer right in front of you at a slight angle so that the underside of the line spool is above
the ground and the line is at the required height. Always cut away from yourself and never draw the
machine towards you.
