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 strikes the correct target. Always cut away from yourself.
Never draw the trimmer towards yourself.
Cutting along fences/foundations
Approach wire mesh fences, lath fences, natural stone walls and foundations slowly so that
you can cut close to them without striking the obstacle with the line. If, for example, the line
strikes stones, stone walls or foundations, it will wear or fray. If the line strikes wire fencing,
it will break.
Trimming around trees
When trimming around tree trunks, approach slowly so that the line does not strike the
bark. Walk around the tree, cutting from left to right. Approach grass or weeds with the tip
of the line and tilt the line spool forwards slightly.
WARNING!
Take extreme care during mowing work. When doing such work,
keep a distance of 30 metres between yourself and other people or animals.
Mowing
When mowing, you want to cut all the vegetation down to the ground. To do this, set the
line spool at an angle of 30° to the right. Place the handle in the required position. Take into
consideration the danger of objects being thrown by the machine.
WARNING!
Do not use the equipment to remove objects from footpaths,
etc. The equipment is a powerful tool and can throw small stones and other
objects a distance of 15 metres or more, causing injuries and damage to
cars, houses and windows.
