! only use in combination with guard S
- cut long grass in layers (always start from the top)
- only trim with the tip of the cutting line
- do not cut damp or wet grass
- prevent the cut grass from clogging the spool (do not
make heavy cuts)
- carefully cut around trees and bushes, so that they do
not come into contact with the cutting lines
- keep the tool away from solid objects in order to protect
the cutting lines against excessive wear
- for cutting long grass slowly swing the tool from right to
