reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally

• 

Assembly instructions 

⑬

-

  the sequence of the numbers appearing in the drawing 

corresponds with the sequence of the steps to be 

followed for assembling the tool

-

  mount cutting guard A as illustrated with round head 

screw supplied

!

firmly tighten all screws

!

  never use the tool without cutting guard A

• 

Adjusting guide handle 

⑭

-

  loosen/tighten handle B 

②

 by turning it 

counter-clockwise/clockwise

• 

Height adjustment 

⑮

For adjusting the tool height so that your front arm is 

straight when trimming

-

  loosen locking sleeve C by turning it clockwise

-

  extend tube D to the desired height

-

  tighten locking sleeve C by turning it counter-clockwise

• 

Charging battery 

⑯

-

  battery of new tools is not fully charged

-

  connect charger E to power source as illustrated 

⑯

a

-

  green light F will turn on indicating that the charger is 

ready for operation 

⑯

a

-

  insert battery G into charger as illustrated 

⑯

b

-

  green light F will blink indicating that the battery is 

being charged 

⑯

b

-

  after approximately 1 hour the battery is fully charged 

and green light F stays on after blinking 

⑯

c

IMPORTANT:

-

  if green light F does not blink after inserting a battery, 

this may mean:

      1)  that the battery is too cold or too hot (charger only 

charges batteries when its temperature is between 

0°C and 45°C)

      2) that the battery should be replaced

-

  the lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time 

(interrupting the charging procedure does not damage 

the battery)

-

  the lithium-ion battery does not have to be empty 

before charging (no "memory-effect" as with nickel-

cadmium batteries)

-

  while charging, the charger and the battery may 

become warm to touch; this is normal and does not 

indicate a problem

-

  ensure that the outside surface of the battery is clean 

and dry before inserting into charger

-

  do not remove battery from tool while it is running

-

  a significantly reduced working period after charging 

indicates that the battery is worn out and should be 

replaced

• 

Battery protection 

Switches off the tool automatically when

    1) the load is too high

    2)  the battery temperature is not within the allowable 

operating temperature range of -10 to +50°C

    3)  the lithium-ion battery is nearly empty (to protect 

against deep discharge)

!

do not continue to press the on/off switch after 

the tool is switched off automatically; battery may 

be damaged

• 

On/off 

⑰

-

  switch on/off the tool by pulling/releasing trigger H

!

after switching off the tool the blade continues to 

rotate for a few seconds

-

  allow the cutting blade to stop rotating before 

switching on again

!

do not rapidly switch on and off

• 

Trimming

!

  ensure that the cutting area is free of stones, 

debris and other foreign objects

!

  start trimming only when tool runs at full speed

-

  cut long grass in layers (always start from the top)

-

  only trim with the tip of the cutting blade

-

  do not cut damp or wet grass

-

  prevent the cut grass from clogging the blade (do not 

make heavy cuts)

-

  do not overload the tool

-

  carefully cut around trees and bushes, so that they do 

not come into contact with the cutting blade

-

  use flower guard J 

⑱

 to protect vulnerable flowers

-

  keep the tool away from solid objects in order to 

protect the cutting blade against excessive wear

-

  be aware of the kickback forces that occur when solid 

objects are touched
