COPE
The brush cutter fitted with a cord head
can only be used to cut lawns -
especially in the presence of obstacles
- and cut brushwood and scrub to the
ground. The cord head is particularly
suitable for trimming around posts and
trees. The brush cutter fitted with a
grass cutter blade may only be used to
cut lawns without obstacles and cut
scrub and bramble to the ground.
ATTENTION: The standard version of
the brush cutter cannot be used in other
ways.
A
DJUSTING THE LENGTH OF THE NYLON
CORD
Always check the length of the cord in
the supplied head before use. This
head features a semi-automatic
system for adjusting cord length. When
the cord is short, start the machine and
hit the cord head on soft ground a few
times. The cord comes out
automatically. Excessive cord length is
cut by the adjustment blade mounted
on the guard.

„
Observe the relevant safety
instructions when using the
brushcutter.
„
Carry the power tool on your r.h. side.

Approach the area to be cleared with
the motor switched OFF; then start
the motor before dipping the cutter
into the working area.
„
Press the ON/OFF switch (2) with a
finger (2). Release the ON/OFF
switch to stop the motor.
„
The rotational direction of the cutting
tool makes the operation on the l.h.
side of the cutting tool (from the
operator's viewpoint, subject to the
brushcutter being held correctly)
particularly free from kicking.
Therefore, always approach the area
to be cut from the right.
„
This brings the l.h. side of the cutting
tool into contact with the material to
be trimmed first.
„
When cutting tougher growth (such
as medium sized weeds and wild
growth) with a grass cutter blade,
ensure that you do not "stab" the
front of the brushcutter into the mate-
rial to be trimmed.
„
Work at a regular pace and move
from side to side as though you were
using a traditional scythe. Do not in-
