Trimming
• Hold the trimmer head just above the ground at an
angle. It is the end of the line that does the work. Let
the line work at its own pace. Never press the line into
the area to be cut.
• The line can easily remove grass and weeds up
against walls, fences, trees and borders, however it
can also damage sensitive bark on trees and bushes,
and damage fence posts.
• Reduce the risk of damaging plants by shortening the
line to 10-12 cm (0.32-0.39 ft.) and reducing the
engine speed.
Clearing
• The clearing technique removes all unwanted
vegetation. Keep the trimmer head just above the
ground and tilt it. Let the end of the line strike the
ground around trees, posts, statues and the like.
CAUTION! This technique increases the wear on the
line.
• The line wears quicker and must be fed forward more
often when working against stones, brick, concrete,
metal fences, etc., than when coming into contact with
trees and wooden fences.
• When trimming and clearing you should use less than
full throttle (80%) so that the cord lasts longer and to
reduce the wear on the trimmer head.
Cutting
• The trimmer is ideal for cutting grass that is difficult to
reach using a normal lawn mower. Keep the line
parallel to the ground when cutting. Avoid pressing the
trimmer head against the ground as this can ruin the
lawn and damage the tool.
• Do not allow the trimmer head to constantly come into
contact with the ground during normal cutting.
Constant contact of this type can cause damage and
wear to the trimmer head.
WORKING TECHNIQUES
Sweeping
• The fan effect of the rotating line can be used for quick
and easy clearing up. Hold the line parallel to and
above the area to be swept and move the tool to and
fro.
• When cutting and sweeping you should use full
throttle to obtain the best results.
Grass clearing using a grass blade
WARNING! Machines fitted with grass
!
blades can be thrown violently to the
side when the blade comes into contact
with a fixed object. This is called blade
thrust. A blade thrust can be violent
enough to cause the machine and/or
operator to be propelled in any direction,
and possibly lose control of the machine.
Blade thrust can occur without warning if
the machine snags, stalls or binds. Blade
thrust is more likely to occur in areas
where it is difficult to see the material
being cut.
Avoid cutting with the area of the blade
between the 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock
positions. Because of the speed of
rotation of the blade, blade thrust can
occur if you attempt to cut thick stems
with this area of the blade.
• Grass blades and grass knifes must not be used on
woody stems.
• A grass blade is used for all types of tall or coarse
grass.
• The grass is cut down with a sideways, swinging
movement, where the movement from right-to-left is
the clearing stroke and the movement from left-to-
