Lengthening the cutting string
1. Let the engine run at full throttle and tap the string
head on the ground.
The cutting string will be extended automatically.
The blade on the safety shield shortens the cutting
string to the permissible length.
Cleaning the guard
1. Switch off the device.
2. Carefully remove mowing debris with a screwdriver or
similar tool.
Clean the guard regularly to prevent the shaft tube
from overheating.
Trimming
1. Examine the terrain and determine the desired cut-
ting height.
2. Guide and hold the string head at the desired height.
3. Swing the device from side to side in a sweeping,
scythe-like motion.
4. Always keep the string head parallel with the ground.
Close trimming

angle and moves just above the ground.
6. Always trim away from your body.
Trimming along fences and foundations
Caution!
Do not come into contact with solid structures – Danger
of recoil!
1. Move the unit slowly and carefully without allowing the
cutting string to hit any obstacles.
Trimming around tree trunks

trunks, ensuring that the cutting string does not touch
the tree bark.
3. Mow from left to right around tree trunks.
