USAGE
Fig. 4-1 - Cord Retainer
WARNING:
Hook the extension cord around the cord retainer to help prevent disconnection or
cable connection stress during usage. Always hold the product off the ground when starting.
Fig. 4-2 - Mower Trimming
For normal trimming, swing the head from side to side without tilting the string head. Keep the string
head at same level for an even finish.
Fig. 4-3 - Close Trimming
Tilt the stringhead to the left for close trimming. Using the left side of the stringhead will also tend to
eject the grass or debris away from the operator.
Fig. 4-4 - Scalping
The further the stringhead is tilted, the closer the cut. Take extra care for flying debris when doing this.
Fig. 4-5 - Edging
The head can be twisted to the vertical position to edge around lawns, flower beds or pathways for
a neater finish. Hold the machine to your left to ensure debris is projected away from you.
WARNING:
Only cut with the tip of the line. This is the most effective way to cut.
Take special care not to allow line to curl around mesh fencing or to rub hard against abrasive
surfaces such as walls. This will cause excessive line wear or line breakage.
Fig. 4-6 -
Do not use the trimmer to ‘sweep’ debris.
Fig. 4-7 -
Do not attempt to feed line bumping the head on the ground.

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
After usage, disconnect from the mains supply and clean dirt and debris from the cutter line area.
This will prolong motor life by maintaining adequate airflow to cool the motor and ensures the line
head continues to snap on and off smoothly.
Inspect the cutter line head for parts that may be chipped, cracked or damaged as these could fly
away and cause serious injury.
Replace damaged parts immediately. Use only genuine replacement parts. Any other maintenance
work should be carried out by an authorised Service Agent only. Check the product and cable
regularly for visible signs of damage or wear. Check that all fasteners and moving parts are secure.
Consult an Authorised Service Dealer if in doubt.
FAULT FINDING
If your trimmer will not start, check that all cables are connected and that the mains power is on. If it
still does not work, check the fuse. If you have tried the above and your trimmer still does not work,
take it to your nearest Authorised Service Dealer.
f
UNWANTED PRODUCTS AND THE ENVIRONMENT
Should you find one day that your product needs replacement, or is of no further use to
you, think of the protection of the environment. Service Centres will accept your old
products and will dispose of them in an environmentally safe way.
