TRIMMING / MOWING
Swing the trimmer from side to side in a scything
motion. Always keep the cutting head parallel to the
ground. Check the site and decide what cutting height
you require. Guide and hold the cutting head at the
required height to ensure that you cut evenly (Fig.
M3).
LOWER TRIMMING
Hold the trimmer right in front of you at a slight angle
so that the underside of the cutter head 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
When cutting 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 cutting head
forwards slightly.
WARNING: Take extreme care during mowing
work. When doing such work keep a distance of 30
meters between yourself and other people or animals.
MOWING
For mowing you want to cut all the vegetation down to
the ground. To do this, set the cutting head at an
angle of 30° to the right. Place the handle in the
required position. Remember the increased risk of
injury to the user, watchers and animals and the
danger of damaging other items due to objects (for
example stones) being thrown out (Fig. M4).
WARNING: Do not remove any objects from
footpaths, etc. using the trimmer. The trimmer is a
powerful tool and can throw small stones and other
objects a distance of 15 meters or more, causing
injuries and damage to cars, houses and windows.

7. Cleaning, maintenance, storage,
transport andordering of spare parts
7.1 Cleaning
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
n
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it
with compressed air at low pressure.
We recommend that you clean the device
n
immediately each time you have finished using it.
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth
n
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of
the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep
into the device.
7.2. Maintenance
Always switch off the machine and pull out the spark
boot plug before carrying out any maintenance work.
7.2.1 Replacing the line spool / cutting line
If you are replacing the spool plate (B), skip points 3,
4 and 5.
1. Press the spool together (Fig. N1/Item A) and
remove one half of the housing.
2. Take the spool plate (B) out of the line spool
housing (Fig. N2).
3. Remove any remaining cutting line.
4. Place the new cutting line in the center and hang
the loop which has formed into the recess in the
spool splitter (Fig. N3).
5. Wind up the line counter-clockwise and under
tension. The spool splitter will separate the two
halves of the line (Fig. N4).
6. Hook the last 15cm of the two ends of the line
onto the opposite lying line holders of the spool
plate (Fig. N5).
7. Thread the two ends of the line through the metal
eyelets in the line spool housing (Fig. N6).
8. Press the spiral spring (C) and the spool plate
(B) into the line spool housing (Fig. N6).
9. Mount the housing half by turning in the direction
of the arrow.
10. Pull the two line ends sharply to release them
from the line holders.
11. Cut the excess line to a length of around 13cm.
This will reduce the load on the engine when
starting and warming up.
