Lawn trimming

Edge cutting
Guide the trimmer along the edge of the lawn. Avoid contact
with solid surfaces or walls to prevent rapid wear of the cut-
ting line.
Cutting around trees, plants and bushes
To prevent damage, carefully cut around trees, plants and
bushes so that they do not come into contact with the cut-
ting line.

spool and wind up the cutting line uniformly and tightly.
Slide the other end of the cutting line through the hole for
line guiding (14) in the trimmer head and mount the spool
