of the transmission box. This operation can severely damage the mechanical part
of the transmission. The forward lever (fig.1 n.9) must ALWAYS be pulled completely, i.e.
until it touches the handle.
HOW TO ADJUST THE HEIGHT OF THE HANDLEBAR
The handlebar of the machine can be adjusted on five heights. To adjust
the height, loosen counter-clockwise the rear handle of
the handlebar (fig.10 n.2) until the knob (fig.10 n.1) can be removed, select
the height of interest, then fit back the knob in the new hole, rotate
clockwise and tighten completely the handle.

HOW TO ADJUST THE HANDLEBAR INCLINATION
In case of works under hedges, projecting branches, posts or any
type of obstacle, it is possible to tilt the handlebar from the opposite side
of the obstacle (fig. 11). To adjust the inclination, pull completely the lever placed
on the lower left side of the handlebar (fig.1 n.7) and position
the corresponding pin in one of the nine holes located on the rack at the bottom
of the handlebar. The machine allows four inclination levels
on the right and four on the left.

HOW TO LOCK THE SWIVELLING BLADE
When the cable has to be laid over long straight sections, it is
possible to lock the swivelling blade (fig.12) to ensure greater
precision of the machine direction. To lock the blade, it suffices to tighten the handle
placed on the right side of the support apparatus (fig.12 n.1).

HOW TO ADJUST THE WIDTH OF THE WHEELS
Both wheels are equipped with 4-position adjustable drive shafts.
This system offers the possibility to position the cutter
at 25, 27, 29 o 31 cm from the adjustable edge.
(fig.13). This allows laying the cable at equal distance
from any edge, wall or hedge. To adjust this
distance, pull out the locking pin (fig.13 n.2), position it
in one of the 4 holes provided on the drive shaft (fig.13 n.1) and
lock back the safety spring.
HOW TO START WORKING

Once the cable is positioned and the cutter is mounted, fix the cable to the ground. To do so,
stick a bit or a stake into the ground and fasten to it the part of the cable that
comes out from the bottom of the blade. This operation has the purpose to ensure the cable
is laid on the furrow created by the cutter on the soil along the first few meters.
