connector, then inspect the petrol brush cutters 
for damage.
Caution: Always be extra cautious when working 
in dicult terrain and on slopes.
When the grass is tall, cut in stages so as not to 
overload the device. First cut the tips, then work 
in stages.
Always wear protective goggles and ear 
protection and wear a protective helmet during 
forestry work.
6.1 Mowing with a string trimmer head 
- Use the thread cassette for obtain a clean cut 
even on uneven surfaces, at fence posts and near 
trees.
-- Carefully lead the trimming thread to an 
obstacle and cut with the thread tip around the 
obstacle. When the trimming string comes into 
contact with stones, trees and walls, the thread 
frays prematurely or breaks.
- Never replace the plastic thread with a metal 
wire - risk of injury!
6.2 Mowing with thicket knife
- Use the thicket knife to comb through thickets, 
wild growth, young trees (maximum 2 cm trunk 
diameter) and tall grass.
- When using metal cutting tools there is always 
a risk of blowback if the tool hits a solid obstacle 
(stones, trees, branches, etc.).
The device is thrown back against the direction 
of rotation.
- In the case of wild growth and scrub, "dip" the 
thicket knife from above. As a result, the material 
to be cut is chopped.
CAUTION: Take extra care with this technique, 
because the greater the distance of the cutting 
tool to the ground, the greater the risk that 
cutting material and foreign objects are thrown 
sideways.
For an adequate protective equipment during 
the use, care must be taken in accordance with 
the operating instructions. All other usages are 
ruled out. Any damage or injury resulting from 
misuse is the responsibility of the user / operator 
and not the manufacturer. Only use 3-teeth 
blades suitable for the machine as mentioned in 
the operating instructions.
- To sift through young stocks of trees and for 
cutting grass, run the device such as a brush 
cutter close to the ground.
CAUTION: Misuse and abuse can damage the 
thicket knife and cause serious injury from parts 
slung away.
- In order to reduce the risk of accidents caused 
by thickets, observe the following points:
- Never cut shrubs or wood larger than 2 cm in 
diameter.
- Avoid contact with metal bodies, stones, etc.
- Check the thicket knife regularly for damage. 
Never use a damaged thicket knife once again.
-- If there is noticeable dulling of the thicket knife, 
it must be sharpened in accordance with the 
instructions by a qualied specialist.
If noticeable imbalance, the thicket knife must be 
replaced.
6.3 Trim lines in automatic mode

cassette.
The thread wears o during work.
To feed new thread, press the trigger on the 
thread cassette rmly on the ground with the
