Using your power tool
ENGLISH 16
8. Using your power tool
8.1 Scope of Application
Only use power tools equipped with a nylon head
(subject to model) for cutting grass – particularly
suitable around obstacles - and for trimming light
weeds and wild growth near ground level. The
nylon head is particularly suitable for a soft cut,
e.g. for clean trimming around trees and posts.
Use power tools equipped with the grass cutter
blade (accessory 107L / 107B) only for cutting
grass away from obstacles and for cutting stronger
weeds and wild growth near ground level.
Only use power tools fitted with the 3-tooth brush
cutting blade (accessory 107L / 107B) for mowing
grass, light brush, reeds and uncultivated growth
at ground level.
Never use the power tool for any other purpose.
8.2 Initial use/ start-up behaviour
When switching on the engine for the first five
times prior to commencing work, first operate for a
short time in the mid-speed range without any load
until the engine has warmed up a little.
8.3 Correct operating mode
Observe the relevant safety instructions when
using the power tool.
Approach the working area with the power tool set
to idle, and then switch to full throttle. Never leave
the engine running at high speed without applying
a load.
(Diagram: 3-tooth brush cutting blade -
model 107)
Dip the tool from the r.h. side 2/3 into the material
to be trimmed. Then work the power tool like a
scythe, i.e. by moving forward step by step, whilst
cutting from right to left.
Operate the power tool at full throttle to obtain an
optimum cutting result. Never operate with the
clutch in slipping range. Consequential damage
through excess loads or overheating is excluded
from our warranty.
Immediately stop the engine in case of noticeable
vibrations or when material has gathered around
the cutting tool or contact shield. Slow down the
cutting tool by pressing it onto the ground, until it
has come to a complete standstill. Pull the spark
plug cap from the plug, and clean the tool seat of
all grass, roots etc. Check the entire power tool for
perfect condition.
