• Do not rest the cutting head on the ground (only for
adjusting nylon line).
• Squeeze the switch 1.
• The trimmer is switched off when you release the
switch.
8. Trimming grass and weeds
• Sweep trimmer back and forth uniformly to cut small
patches of grass or weeds. The trimmer is not con-
structed and suitable for cutting large areas.
• Wherever possible, cut with left-hand side so that cut-
tings, dust and stones are thrown forwards, away from
the user.
• Ideal working conditions are achieved if the trimmer is
tilted to the left at an angle approx. of 30°.
9. Adjusting nylon line
Check the nylon line regularly if it is damaged or if it still
has the correct length.
When cutting performance deteriorates: Hold the run-
ning trimmer above a patch of grass. Tap the cutting
head on the ground. Note the fresh line will be advanced
only if line(s) are still at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) long. If the
line(s) are shorter: Switch off the trimmer, disconnect
plug from power supply. Press in the spool and pull end
of line(s) firmly outwards). If end of line(s) are not visible
- see (replacement of spool).
Your trimmer has a thread cutting blade that continu-
ously cuts the thread down to the appropriate length.
Note: Clean the thread cutting blade from grass re-
mainders in order to guarantee an unaffected cutting
performance.
Attention: Danger of injury through the cutting blade!
10. Replacement of spool
First, switch off and unplug the device. Wait until the ny-
lon thread has come to a halt. Then push the two locking
devices 1 at the sides of the cutting head, and remove
the cutting head cover 2 (fig. 8). Remove the used thread
coil and put in the new coil 3 such, that the (one) end
of the thread comes out of (each) outlet at the side(s)
of the cutting head (fig. 9). Please take care that the
spring 4 is properly seated under the thread coil. Finally,
close the cover by pushing it in its seat. Both locks must
properly engage.
11. Trouble shooting
• Trimmer does not work: Check power supply (e.g.
by testing on another socket or by means of a voltage
tester). Should it still not work, although the socket is
o.k., send it undismantled to an authorised service sta-
tion for repair.
• Cutting line disappears into spool: Remove spool,
pull end of line through the metal outlet and reinsert
spool. In case nylon line is used up insert a new spool
with line.
