Sharpening the string cutter blade

1. Remove the cutting blade from the guard.
2. Clamp the cutting blade in a vice and sharpen it with
a flat file.
File in one direction only.

Adjusting the Bowden cables

The Bowden cables of your strimmer are factory-adjusted.
If the position of the "bike grip" handle is changed signifi-
cantly, this can cause the Bowden cable to stretch, result-
ing in malfunctioning of the throttle.
If the cutting head does not come to a standstill after the
strimmer has been started and the half throttle lock has
been released, the Bowden cable must be adjusted by
means of the adjusting screw (Fig. 10-a).
Correct functioning of the throttle is then assured once
again.
Caution!
Risk of injury from rotating cutting head!
Only adjust Bowden cables with the engine switched
„
off.
Only check the function with the strimmer lying down.
