Cleaning
Do not jet water onto the trim-
mer and do not clean it under
flowing water. This would result
in the danger of an electric
shock and the trimmer could be
damaged.
Always keep the trimmer clean. Do no
use cleaning agents and solvents.
•
After the work has been completed
remove all grass and soil from the cut-
ting device and the protective cover.
•
Ensure that the ventilation slots are
always clean and free of grass.
•
Clean the trimmer with a soft brush or
a cloth.
Replacing the trimming
assembly
Never manipulate the cutting de-
vice by inserting worn out origi-
nal or alien parts. Only use origi-
nal spare parts. Never use metal
lines. The use of alien parts can
result in serious personal injury
and cause irreparable damage
to the trimmer and the guaran-
tee will become instantly null
and void.
Exchanging the line spool:
1. Disconnect the plug from the
mains socket.
2. Turn over the trimmer so that the
cutting head (11) is facing up-
wards.
3. Simultaneously press the two
locks on the cutting head (11)
and remove the hood (18).
4. Remove the line spool (19) from
the cutting head.
5. Insert the new spool with the
smooth side facing upwards in
the cutting head and thread the
two lines through the line eyelets
(20). Ensure that the line ends
do not slip out of the spool slots.
6. Return the hood.(17) Ensure that
the locks of the hood are accu-
rately inserted in the correspond-
ing recesses of the cutting head.
They lock in audibly.
7. Press the retaining head (17),
release it again and pull the
ends of the cord out a little. Re-
peat this process until the ends
of the cord project a little beyond
the cord cutter).
Check the string cutter. Do not use
the appliance without a string or
with a defective string. Contact our
nearest Service Centre in case the
string cutter is damaged.
Storage
•
Carefully clean the trimmer and its ac-
cessories after each use (see "Clean-

Store the trimmer in a dry place well
out of reach of children.
