6.4 OPERATION
NOTE Before tackling a mowing job
for the first time, get to know the machine,
learn the most suitable cutting techniques,
grip the machine firmly and make the
movements required by the job.
To use the machine proceed as follows:
– always hold the machine firmly with
two hands, using the cutting unit
below the operator's belt level.
NOTE During use, the battery is
protected against total drainage with a
protective device that switches off the
machine and stops it from working.
NOTE The battery power reserve (and
therefore the mowable vegetation area
before recharging is required) depends
on
various factors (par. 7.2.1).
NOTE After one minute of inactivity, if turned
on, the machine will automatically switch off.
6.4.1 Work techniques
Use ONLY nylon lines. The use of
metal lines, plastic coated metal lines and/
or lines that are not suitable for the head
can cause serious injuries and wounds.
a. Cutting motion (Scything)
– Make sure the cutting means is in
grass trimmer mode (par. 6.1.3);
– proceed at a regular pace, with a
circular motion similar to a traditional
scythe, without tilting the cutting line
head during the operation (Fig. 17).
