NOTE: The cutting line will stretch approximately 8 mm at each stop
and start until the line has reached the length of the wire cutter. Avoid
stopping and restarting the appliance frequently as the cutting line will
lengthen unnecessarily each time, wasting a large length of wire.
Cutting with the spool
Make sure that the work area is free of rock, debris, lines and other
foreign objects.
Start the tool before approaching the grass to be cut.
If you need to release the line, please press the switch trigger. If too much
line is fed out and it projects beyond the guard edge it is cut by the line
cutting blade.
Cut the grass by swinging the tool from right to left and the tool inclined
forwards at an angle of about 30°. Light cuts are better than heavy cuts
as they allow the cut grass to fall away from the spool preventing the
grass from clogging the spool.
Start cutting nearest the mains power source and work away from it to
make it easier to avoid the cable.
High grass should be cut in layers always beginning from the top. Do not
cut damp or wet grass. Do not overload your tool.
Avoid wearing the line out quickly by knocking against hard
objects(stones, walls, fences etc).
Watch out for kickbacks in the events of impact with hard objects.
After finishing the cutting operation, keep the head close to ground
level,release the switch and follow the motor to come to a complete
standstill. Place the tool on the ground, switch off and remove the cable
plug from the main supply.
