Operation
• To cut properly, swing the grass trimmer sideways while moving
forwards. Keep the grass trimmer inclined at an angle of approx.
30° while you do so (see Fig. 9 and Fig. 10).
• If the grass is long, it must be cut shorter in stages, starting from
the tip (see Fig. 11).
• Swing down the flower hoop guard (Fig. 8/
7
) in order to keep
flowers and shrubs outside the cutting range (see Fig. 1 and
Fig.8). You can also use the guard hood and the edge guide for
the same purpose.
• To avoid unnecessary wear on the line, keep the grass trimmer
away from hard objects.
Using the grass trimmer as an edge trimmer (Fig. 12 and Fig. 13)
To cut the edges of lawns and flower beds, the grass trimmer can be
converted as follows:
• Switch off the power supply to the electric grass trimmer.
• Pull the sleeve (Fig. 12/
10
) to the rear.
• Hold the sleeve in the rear position and rotate the top handle
through 180° (Fig. 12) until it latches in place.
• This converts the electric grass trimmer into an edge trimmer for
cutting the lawn with vertical cuts (Fig. 13).
After use
1. Let go of the On/Off switch
2
in order to switch off the grass
trimmer.
2. Disconnect the grass trimmer from the power supply and remove
the extension cable.
3. Wait for the cutting unit to come to a complete stop and give the
grass trimmer time to cool down completely.
4. Carefully remove grass and any foreign bodies from the cutting
unit and the grass trimmer.
