The blade (1) on the deflector (2) trims
surplus line to the correct length – avoid
tapping the mowing head more than
once at a time.
Line feed operates only if both lines still
have a minimum length of 2.5 cm.
If the line is shorter than 2.5 cm:
N Switch off the trimmer.
N Disconnect the plug from the power
supply.
N Turn the trimmer on its back.
N Press down the cap on the spool as
far as stop.
N Pull the ends of the lines out of the

The depth wheel is included in the scope
of supply or is available as a special
accessory.
It limits the working range of the mowing
line.
– It helps reduce the risk of the
rotating mowing line causing
damage (e.g. tree bark).
– It maintains the correct ground
clearance when edging.
The depth wheel (1) can be locked in
three different positions (A, B or C) on
the support (2). This allows the reach of
the mowing line to be varied.
A Working range of mowing line
extends beyond the outside
diameter of the depth wheel, e.g. for
lawn edging.
B Working range of mowing line
extends up to outside diameter of
depth wheel.
C Working range of mowing line does
not reach as far as outside diameter
of depth wheel, e.g. for mowing
around trees.
