drives a cutting means (cutting line head).
The cutting means works on a surface that
is approximately parallel to the ground

approximately perpendicular to the ground
(in case of use as grass edge trimmer.
The operator can operate the machine and
use the main controls, always keeping a
safe distance from the cutting means.
