•  Trimming

!  ensure that the cutting area is free of stones, 

debris and other foreign objects

!  start trimming only when tool runs at full speed

-  start trimming near the mains socket and move away 

while working

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

-  only trim with the tip of the cutting line

-  do not cut damp or wet grass

-  prevent the cut grass from clogging the spool (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 lines

-  use lower guard H 

$

 to protect vulnerable lowers

-  keep the tool away from solid objects in order to 

protect the cutting lines against excessive wear

-  be aware of the kickback forces that occur when solid 

objects are touched

•  Holding and guiding the tool 

%

-  for cutting long grass slowly swing the tool from right to 

left and vice versa

-  for cutting shorter grass tilt the tool as illustrated

-  for trimming edges turn the cutting head 180° as 

illustrated (

possible only when lower tube E is 

fixed in one of the three height positions

)

-  hold tool irmly with both hands, so you will have full 

control of the tool at all times

correct length by line cutting blade J each time the tool 

is switched on

!  take care against injury from line cutting blade J

-  after line feeding always return the tool to its normal 

operating position before switching on

-  feed the lines regularly to maintain full cutting circle

-  when the motor runs without load and no grass is cut, 

the cutting lines are worn or broken; rewind the spool 

or replace the spool system

•  Rewinding spool 

&

In case the cutting lines fail to protrude from spool cap K

!  switch off the tool and disconnect the plug

-  remove spool system from tool and take out spool from 

spool cap K

-  tightly rewind both cutting lines evenly in layers in 

arrow direction

-  insert both lines into spool slots X and ensure that they 

are securely in place (leave suicient length of line)

-  thread both lines through spool holes Y before placing 

the rewound spool into spool cap K

!  ensure that the spool is located securely in place, 

then release both lines from slots X by pulling 

them firmly

-  mount spool system onto tool (

turn spool clockwise 

until it clicks into place

)
