Grass Trimmer/Edger

WG157E 

WG157E.X

And the tool is being used as intended by its design 
and these instructions.

This tool may cause hand-arm vibration 
syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.

WARNING! 

To be accurate, an estimation of 

exposure level in the actual conditions of use 

should also take account of all parts of the operating 
cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off 
and when it is running idle but not actually doing the 
job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level 
over the total working period.
Helping to minimize your vibration exposure risk.
ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades.
Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions 
and keep well lubricated (where appropriate).
If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti 
vibration accessories.
Plan your work schedule to spread any high 
vibration tool use across a number of days.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE:

 Before using the tool, read the 

instruction book carefully.

Intended Use

The machine is intended for the cutting of grass and 
weeds under bushes, as well as on slopes and edges 
that can not be reached with the lawn mower.

WARNING!

 

The charger and Battery Pack are specially 

designed to work together so do not attempt to use 
any other devices. Never insert or allow foreign 
metallic objects into your charger or Battery Pack 
connections because of electrical failure and other 
hazards that will occur.

WARNING!

Always wear the eye protection. Never lean 

over the trimmer head. Rocks or debris can ricochet 
or be thrown into eyes and face and cause blindness 
or other serious injury. When operating unit, check 
for the following:
Wear eye protection and heavy clothing. Hold front 
handle with one hand and Auxiliary Handle with 
the other hand. Keep unit below waist level. Work 
only from your right to your left to ensure debris is 
thrown away from you. Without bending over, keep 
line near and parallel to the ground (perpendicular 
when edging) and not crowded into material being 
cut.

WARNING!

Make sure that line is fed out before operation. 

Make sure motor is up to full speed before trimming 
or edging.

WARNING!

Only use 1.65mm diameter cutting line. Other 

sizes of line will not feed properly and will result in 

improper cutting head function or can cause serious 
injury. Do not use other material such as wire, 
string, rope, etc. Wire can break off during cutting 
and become a dangerous projectile that can cause 
serious injury.
