Operation
Helpful Suggestions
•
Caution! Remove all objects like cans, bottles, stones, etc. from the ground
before using the trimmer. They can be thrown about by the trimmer and
cause injury or damage the trimmer.
•
Caution! Never raise the trimmer head above knee-height while it is spinning.
•
Caution! Never use metal or plastic coated metal trimmer line, this could
cause serious accidents.
• Switch off the grass trimmer at once and check it for damage if you notice that
something is ejected or if the grass trimmer starts vibrating. Inspect the trimmer
for any damage. Do not use the grass trimmer if it has been damaged.
• Allow the engine to come up to full speed before starting to cut the grass.
Never attempt to trim grass at low speed.
• Hold the grass trimmer with both hands.
• Hold the trimmer head parallel to the ground and sweep the grass trimmer
from side to side whilst slowly walking forwards. Reduce your forward
movement if the going gets heavy.
• Do not move the trimmer head towards you, always work away from yourself.
Trimming round trees and bushes
• Lean the trimmer head forward slightly and start trimming from left to right
whilst slowly walking around the tree.
• Be careful, so the trimmer line doesn’t cut the bark of the tree or the plants
that you want to keep!
• If you trim grass close to fences, foundations, rocks, etc; the trimmer line
will soon wear out.
Preparing the ground (removing all vegetation)
• Angle the trimmer head approx. 30 degrees to the left (it is easier if you
loosen the loop handle and adjust it) See figure.
• Do not do this if there is the slightest risk of something being flung up and
injuring people or animals standing within a 30-metre radius.
Feeding out the line
Feed out the trimmer line like this:
1. Let the engine come up to top speed. Tap the trimmer head on
the ground and lift it up again. The line will feed automatically.
2. The line will be cut to the correct length by the cutter blade under
the trimmer guard.
3. Turn off the engine and use e.g. a screwdriver to remove any
grass or other deposits that may have built up between the guard
and trimmer head. Debris caught between the guard and trimmer
head can reduce the ability of the driveshaft to cool properly.
