Before starting work, prepare the area. You should remove the stones, pieces of wood, branches, wires, bones and other foreign
objects, which can cause damage to the grass trimmer or will be thrown out during the operation.
When working with the blade there is a risk of blade rebounding towards you and you being hit by the blade. To minimize this risk,
do not cut plant parts which are too hard. Rebounding occurs during the sudden stop of the blade during its operation, for example,
in the case of inability to cut a bush. Such stoppage results in rotation of the device in opposite direction to the rotation of blade. To
prevent rebound phenomenon and its consequences use extreme caution when working with the blade. Do not place body parts
in the area of
the possible movement of the blade after rebounding. Maintain proper posture and balance during the work time.
Hold the tool handles firmly and always use the supplied harness or sling. The grass trimmer rebound can lead to the fall down of
its operator and endanger the operator for contact with rotating blade. The blade should be sharpened.
Turn the engine on in accordance with the instructions, pay attention to the feet, hands and other body parts, whether they are
away from the cutting element. Do not keep the hands, feet and other body parts in the vicinity of the rotating parts.
Stop the engine when:
- every time when you need to go away from the device,
- before cleaning, checking, or servicing the device,
- after striking by a foreign object. Check whether the grass trimmer is damaged and, if necessary, make repairs, before restart-
ing.
- if the device begins to vibrate excessively (check immediately).
- during handling and transportation of the device.
ATTENTION! After stopping the engine, the cutting unit rotates for some time. Wait until it stops.
Always observe your surroundings and keep alert to possible threats, which may not be realized due to the noise of the device.

Grass trimmer operating
Preparing the grass trimmer for operation
Before its first use, you must install the cutting element, which is corresponding to a given work: the head of the cutting line or
blade, cutting element cover the additional handle and belt-harness.
The head of the cutting line should be used just to mow the grass. Use the blade to cut shrubs, woody plant shoots, etc.
In order to mount the guard of cutting element you should fasten it with the screw to spindle cover (II). The provided cover is ap-
propriate for work with the cutting line and blade as well. On cover the blade is fixed, it is used for automatic shortening of the line.
If the blade is equipped with protection you should remove it before you start using the line for your work.
To install the handle to grass trimmer you should unscrew the mounting knob completely and remove the upper bracket holder.
Place the handle in lower shackle, fix the upper shackle, introducing the hooks through the front of lower shackle through openings
in the front of the upper shackle. Screw the mounting knob firmly to block the movement of handles (III).
Depending on the supplied equipment you should put on the belt or harness (IV). The length of strips should be adjusted so they
are not pressing the operator’s body, but at the same time they do not move during the operation. The grass trimmer can also
be hung on the harness or on a belt other than the one which is supplied with the unit providing that it can be hung on a belt or
harness, without any modifications of its mounting.
