Safety instructions after completing work

• Make sure the cutting attachment has stopped before
cleaning, carrying out repairs or an inspection.
Remove the battery from the machine.

SavE mode

The machine is equipped with a battery saving function
(SavE). Activate the function by pressing the SavE button.
A green LED will light to indicate that the function is on.
In most cases SavE mode is the most optimum when
trimming and gives longest runtime. Release the power
trigger after each working operation to save battery
power. (Figure 32)

Automatic switch off functionality

The machine is equipped with a shutdown feature that
deactivates the machine if not used. The green LED will
be extinguished and the machine turned off after 45
seconds.

Grass trimming with a trimmer head

WARNING! Sometimes branches or
!
grass get caught between the guard and
cutting attachment. Always remove the
battery before cleaning.
Trimming
• Hold the trimmer head just above the ground at an
angle. It is the end of the cord that does the work. Let
the cord work at its own pace. Never press the cord
into the area to be cut. (Figure 19)
• The cord can easily remove grass and weeds up
against walls, fences, trees and borders. However it
can also damage sensitive bark on trees and bushes,
and damage fence posts.
• Reduce the risk of damaging plants by shortening the
cord to 10-12 cm and reducing the engine speed.
Clearing
• The clearing technique removes all unwanted
vegetation. Keep the trimmer head just above the
ground and tilt it. Let the end of the cord strike the
ground around trees, posts, statues and the like.
CAUTION! This technique increases the wear on the
cord. (Figure 20)
• The cord wears quicker and must be fed forward more
often when working against stones, brick, concrete,
metal fences, etc., than when coming into contact with
trees and wooden fences.
• When trimming and clearing, you should use less than
full throttle (80%) so that the cord lasts longer and to
reduce the wear on the trimmer head.
Cutting
• The trimmer is ideal for cutting grass that is difficult to
reach using a normal lawn mower. Keep the cord
parallel to the ground when cutting. Avoid pressing the

trimmer head against the ground as this can ruin the
lawn and damage the tool. (Figure 21)
• Do not allow the trimmer head to constantly come into
contact with the ground during normal cutting.
Constant contact of this type can cause damage and
wear to the trimmer head.
Sweeping
• The fan effect of the rotating cord can be used for
quick and easy clearing up. Hold the cord parallel to
and above the area to be swept and move the tool side
to side. (Figure 22)
• When cutting and sweeping you should use full
throttle to obtain the best results.
