NOTE During use, the battery is
protected against total drainage with a
protective device that switches off the
machine and stops it from working.
NOTE Battery power reserve (and
therefore the cuttable vegetation area
before recharging is required) depends on
many factors described in (par. 7.2.1).
NOTE After one minute of inactivity, if turned
on, the machine will automatically switch off.
6.4.1 Work techniques
Use ONLY nylon lines. The use of
metal lines, plasticised metal lines and/
or lines that are not suitable for the head
can cause serious injuries and wounds.
a. Cutting in motion (Scything)
– Make sure the cutting means is in
grass trimmer mode (par. 6.1.3);
– proceed at a regular pace, with a
circular motion similar to a traditional
scythe, without tilting the cutting line
head during the operation (Fig. 13).
First try cutting at the right height in a small
area, so as to then achieve a uniform cutting
height keeping the cutting line head at a
constant distance from the ground.
For heavier cutting it can be useful to tilt the
cutting line head to the left by about 30°.
Do not work in this way if there
is the possibility of causing objects
to be thrown, which could harm
people, animals or cause damage.
b. Precision cutting (Trimming)
Keep the machine slightly tilted so that the
lower part of the cutting line head does not
touch the ground and the cutting line is at the
required point, always keeping the cutting
means at a distance from the operator.
c. Cutting near fences/foundations
– Adjust the cutting limit indicator
( if applicable, par. 6.1.4 );
– move the cutting line head slowly
towards fences, posts, rocks, walls, etc.
without hitting them hard (Fig. 12).
If the line strikes a solid object it could
break or become worn; if it gets tangled
in a fence it could break suddenly.
In any case, cutting around pavements,
foundations, walls, etc. can cause
greater wear than normal to the line.
d. Cutting around trees
– Adjust the cutting limit indicator
( if applicable, par. 6.1.4 );
– walk round the tree from left to right,
approaching the trunks slowly so as not to
strike the tree with the line and keeping the
cutting line head tilted forward slightly.
Remember that the nylon line could lop off or
damage small shrubs and that the impact of the
nylon line against the trunk of bushes or trees
with soft bark could seriously damage the plant.
6.4.2 Automatic line release
This machine is fitted with an
automatic line release head.
To release new line:
1. stop the machine (par. 6.6);
2. wait for two seconds and restart the machine.
The cutting diameter is set to 30 cm.
Repeat the procedure until the line length
reaches the line cutting knife (Fig. 8.A)
that will cut any excess length.
6.5 ADVICE FOR OPERATION
During use it is best to periodically remove
weeds that wrap around the machine to avoid
motor overheating (Fig. 1.A), due to grass
caught under the cutting means guard (Fig. 1.D).
Proceed as follows:
– stop the machine (par. 6.6);
– remove the battery (par. 7.2.2);
– wear work gloves;
– remove the caught-up grass
with a screwdriver to allow the
motor to be properly cooled.
6.6 STOP
To stop the machine:
1. release the throttle control lever (Fig. 7.A);.
2. wait until the cutting means stops.
