several seconds; therefore, do not touch the cutting head of the brush cutter until it has
come to a complete stop!
Working instructions
Extending the cutting line
CAUTION!
Do not use any kind of metal wire or metal wire encased in plastic in the line
spool. This may cause serious injury to the user. To extend the cutting line, run the engine
at full speed and tap the line spool on the ground. This will automatically extend the line.
The blade on the safety shield will cut the line to the appropriate length.
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 shield
and prevent the shaft tube from receiving adequate ventilation. Remove these remnants
using a tool not bare hands.
Different cutting methods
When the equipment is correctly assembled, it will cut weeds and long grass in places
which are difficult to access, e.g. along fences, walls and foundations, and trees. It can also
be used for ‘mowing’ vegetation to prepare a garden for other applications.
