ENGLISH
Operation
• Remember that you, being the string
trimmer operator, are responsible of your safety and the
safety of those who are near your work area. Follow all
security standards (pages 4 and 5) before operating the
tool.
• Keep good balance with both feet firmly set on ground.
• Use the harness to support the string trimmer weight.
Hold firmly the string trimmer in front of you. Set one
hand in the handle and the other in the auxiliary handle to
have the tool aligned to your body and pointing the cutter
head 30° downwards, away from your feet.
• Do not turn on or operate the string
trimmer in any other position.
• Turn on the string trimmer and make cuts from left to
right rotating your waist and keeping the tool position.
• As you cut grass the cutting thread will wear and will fall.
To release more thread from the spool press the string
trimmer lightly downwards to have the ground pressing the
retention cap against the spool and to release more thread.
The guard blade will cut the remaining thread. At this
moment stop pushing the string trimmer against the
ground to stop spending more thread.
• To cut brush or tall grasses make it gradually. Do not try
to cut in one pass from its base because residue could
clog the cutting head or make you loose control over the
string trimmer.
