Trimming around trees
Edge guide recommended!
When trimming around tree trunks, approach
slowly so that the line does not strike the bark.
Walk around the tree, cutting from left to right.
Approach grass or weeds with the tip of the line
and tilt the line spool forwards slightly. Warning:
Take extreme care during mowing work. When
doing such work keep a distance of 98 ft. between
yourself and other people or animals.
Mowing
For mowing you want to cut all the vegetation
down to the ground. To do this, set the line spool
at an angle of 30° to the right. Place the additional
handle in the required position. Remember the
increased risk of injury to the user, watchers and
animals, and the danger of damaging other items
due to objects (for example stones) being thrown
out (Fig. 16).
Warning: Do not remove any objects from
footpaths, etc. using the equipment.
The equipment is a powerful tool and can throw
small stones and other objects a distance of
50 ft. or more, causing injuries and damage to
cars, houses and windows.
Sawing
The equipment is not suitable for sawing.
7. Cleaning and maintenance
HAZARD!
Always take the battery out of the equipment
before starting any cleaning work.
7.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it down with compressed air at
low pressure.
•
We recommend cleaning the equipment
immediately each time after use.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a damp
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these may
be aggressive to the plastic parts in the
equipment. Ensure that no water can get into
the interior of the equipment. The ingress of
water into an electric power tool increases the
risk of an electric shock.

pressure spring.
3. Fig. 18 Thread the end of the line on the
new line spool through the eyelet (24) in the
spool cover and allow approx. 5.11" of line to
project. Place the pressure spring (23) in the
line spool.
4. Press the spool cover back into the line spool

2. Remove the empty line spool and the
pressure spring.
3. Remove any remaining cutting line if there is
any.
4. Fig. 19 Insert the new cutting line through the
line mount inside the spool.
5. Wind the line with tension in a
counterclockwise direction.
6. Fig. 20 Hook the line, approx. 5.9" before the
end of the line, into one of the line holders on
the edge of the spool.
7. Fig. 18 Thread the end of the line on the new
line spool through the eyelet (24) in the spool
cover. Place the pressure spring (23) in the
line spool.
8. Pull the line sharply to release it from the line
holder.
9. Press the spool cover back into the line spool
housing.
When you start the equipment again the line will
be cut to the perfect length automatically.
Caution! Bits of the nylon line could cause injury
when fl ung out.
7.4 Sharpening the safety guard blade
The safety guard blade (Fig. 2/Item 14) can
become blunt over time. When you notice this,
undo the screw holding the safety guard blade
on the safety guard. Clamp the blade in a vise.
