OPERATION
Cutting the grass
Hold the grass trimmer at the angle of about 50° to the
ground. Move the grass trimmer from right to left slowly.
Cut the grass a few times from the top of the grass at
the tip of the nylon cord or with the blade.
NOTICE:
Do not cut high grass at a time. Cutting
the high grass at a time near the root may cause the
nylon cutting head or plastic blade to be entangled by
grass. This may cause the motor overload, resulting
in damage to the grass trimmer.
NOTICE:
Use the grass trimmer without getting
the spool or plastic blade into a contact with the
ground surface. Using the spool or plastic blade
contacting the ground surface may cause the motor
under overload resulting in damage to the grass
trimmer.
► Fig.27
NOTICE:
Do not force the trimmer in densely
growing grass.
► Fig.28
NOTICE:
Do not use the trimmer as if you dig out
the ground.
► Fig.29
Cutting the grass near tree, block,
brick, or stone
Hold and tilt the grass trimmer at a height where the
spool or blade does not touch the ground. Cut the grass
using the nylon cord tip or plastic blade like knocking
the ground.
► Fig.30
NOTICE:
When cutting the grass, move the
grass trimmer around the tree or blocks so that
the nylon cord or blade does not touch the tree or
blocks. It is recommended to keep the tool more than
5 cm away from the tree or block. If the nylon cord or
blade touch the tree or block, the nylon cord may be
torn or the blade may wear out rapidly. If the nylon
cord is torn in the spool, set the nylon cord again
referring to the replacement procedure in this manual.
Using the grass trimmer as an edger
Using the grass trimmer as an edger is suitable for
cutting the grass growing along the bricks or blocks.
Pull down the wire guard and rotate the grass trimmer
180°.
As shown in the figure, while contacting the wire guard
with the ground, move the grass trimmer to cut the
grass. You can cut the grass efficiently by walking in
parallel along the bricks or blocks.

der harness.

The shoulder harness features a means of quick
release. Squeeze the sides of the buckle to release the
tool from the shoulder harness.
