ATTENTION: Even if it is used carefully, cutting around
foundations, stone or concrete walls will result in the line
suffering more than normal wear.
Trimming/mowing
Swing the trimmer from side to side in a scything motion. Always
keep the line spool parallel to the ground. Check the site and
decide which cutting height you require. Guide and hold the line
spool at the required height to obtain an even cut.
Low trimming
Hold the trimmer right in front of you at a slight angle so that the
underside of the line spool is above the ground and the line strikes
the correct target. Always cut away from yourself. Never draw the
trimmer towards yourself.
Cutting along fences/foundations
Approach wire mesh fences, lath fences, natural stone walls and
foundations slowly so that you can cut close to them without
striking the obstacle with the line. If, for example, the line strikes
stones, stone walls or foundations, it will wear or fray. If the line
strikes wire fencing, it will break.
Trimming around trees
When trimming around tree trunks, approach slowly so that the
line does not strike the bark. Walk around the tree, cutting from
left to right. Approach grass or weeds with the tip of the line and
tilt the line spool forwards slightly.
WARNING! Take extreme care during mowing work. When
doing such work, keep a distance of 30 metres between
yourself and other people or animals.
Mowing
When mowing, you want to cut all the vegetation down to the
ground. To do this, set the line spool at an angle of 30° to the
