• Regular recharging after lengthy use and after lengthy periods of inaction will
extend the service life of the battery.
OPERATION
IMPORTANT! Make sure that you unplug the rechargeable battery before adjusting the
line length!
The grass trimmer has a semi-automatic line extension system. Each time you
activate the semiautomatic line extension system, the line will be extended to ensure
that you can cut your lawn with the perfect cutting width at all times. Please note that
the wear on the line will be increased if you activate the semi-automatic line extension
system frequently.
Note
If the line is too long when you use the machine for the first time, the surplus end of it
will be cut by the blade on the safety hood. If the line is too short when you start the
machine for the first time, press the knob on the line spool and pull the line hard.
When you then start the machine for the first time the line will be cut to the perfect
length automatically.
Remove the knife guard. Caution: Risk of injury!
Now insert the rechargeable battery. The line will be cut to the correct length when
the cutting head starts up again. A short or worn nylon line produces poor cutting
results. Your grass trimmer will work at its best if you observe the following instruc-
tions:
• Never use the grass trimmer without its safety devices.
• Do not cut grass when it is wet. The best results are had on dry grass.
To switch on your grass trimmer, press the safety lock-off and the ON/OFF switch
(B1/Pos. 2).
To switch off your grass trimmer, let go of the ON/OFF switch (B1/Pos. 2).
• Do not move the grass trimmer against the grass until the switch is pressed, i.e.
wait until the trimmer is running.
• For the correct cutting action, swing the grass trimmer to the side as you walk
forward, holding it at an angle of approx. 30° as you do so (see B16-B17).
• Make several passes to cut long grass shorter step by step from the top (see B18).
• Use the guard hood to prevent unnecessary wear.
• To avoid unnecessary wear, keep the grass trimmer away from hard objects.
Using the grass trimmer as an edge trimmer
The grass trimmer can be adjusted as follows to trim the edge of lawns and beds.
• The grass trimmer can thus be adjusted for use as an edge trimmer for making
vertical cuts on the grass (B15).
