Switching off
CAUTION!
Rotating line!
Note that the line continues running when
the lawn trimmer has been switched off.
◼
Release the On/Off switch.
Battery state of charge
◼
Press the button on the battery to check
the state of charge at the state of charge
indicator LEDs.
The indicator goes out after 5 seconds.
If one of the LEDs flashes, the battery must
be recharged. If none of the LEDs light up
after the button is pressed, the battery is
faulty and must be replaced.
Automatic line release
You can release the cutting line without
stopping the motor.
◼
To release more cutting line, gently tap
the cutting head on the ground while
running the lawn trimmer.
The line blade in the guard cuts the line back
to the correct length if too much cutting line
is released.
It is best to bounce the cutting head on bare
ground or hard earth.
Work instructions
◼
Attach the shoulder belt to the unit.
Pull the shoulder belt over your head.
◼
Hold the unit with both hands: one hand
on the rear handle, the other hand on the
handlebar.
◼
Keep the cutting attachment parallel to
the ground and make sweeping
movements from side to side.
◼
Walk slowly forwards.
◼
Use only the tip of the line for cutting,
especially along walls. If more than the
tip is used for cutting, the cutting capacity
is reduced and the engine may overload.
◼
Cut grass which is taller than œ0 cm from
the top down in small stages to prevent
premature wear of the line and engine
resistance.
◼
Cut dry grass and weeds only.
◼
The trim line may break by:
–
becoming entangled with foreign
objects,
–
normal material fatigue,
–
attempting to cut thick-stalked weeds,
–
striking walls, garden fences, etc.
