tool down.
Follow these steps to operate the trimmer:
1.
Make a loop with the extension cable and wrap it through the cord lock.
2.
Place the end of the loop around cable securing hook and ensure it is pulled firmly
enough to prevent it coming loose while operating the trimmer.

Insert the plug into the extension cable.

Hold the trimmer at waist level.
5.
Place the product on the right side of your body with the motor behind and away from
your body.
6.
Start the trimmer and approach the area to be cut.
7.
For best cutting, swing the trimmer gently from side to side and walk forward while
keeping the trimmer at an angle of 30 degrees to achieve best cutting results.
8.
Do not overload your trimmer. It operates best at high speed.

To cut long grass, start at the top, take several small cuts. Never cut wet or very damp
grass.

switch and allow the motor to come to a complete stand still. Place the trimmer on the
ground, switch off and remove the cable plug from the mains supply.
Periodically clean out the grass between the knife and the rim of the guard
to prevent the tool from vibrating.
