Cutting guide
WARNING!
Always wear eye protection (PPE). Never lean over the
trimmer head. Stones or debris can bounce or be thrown
into the eyes and face, and cause blindness or other
serious injury.
When operating the unit:
Hold the front handle with one hand and auxiliary handles with the
other hand.
Keep the unit below waist level. Work only from your right to your
left to ensure debris is thrown away from you. The guard should
face you, protecting you from debris.
Do not switch the machine on with the cutting head on or near
material to be cut. Ensure the cutting line is at full speed before
contacting the grass.
Use the trimmer at an angle of approximately 15° to the working
area.
In a controlled manner, swing the trimmer head from side to side.
If the grass is very long, cut it in stages rather than trying to cut it
all in one go. Do not overload your trimmer; take small cuts, this
will keep the machine operating at high speed and improve the
cutting efficiency.
