• To cut around trees, fence posts or other
obstacles, go slowly around the obsta-
cle with the equipment and cut with the
thread tips.
• Avoid contact with solid obstacles (stones,
walls, board fences etc) otherwise the
thread will quickly wear out. Use the
edge of the protective cover to keep the
equipment at the correct distance
Caution! Do not place the cut-
ting head on the ground dur-
ing operation!

Extending the cutting thread

The equipment comes with a double-thread
tap mechanism, i.e. both threads extend if
the cutting head is tapped on the ground.
1. Hold the equipment in operation over
a grassy area and lightly tap the cut-
ting head a few times on the ground.
This extends the thread.
2. The thread cutter (
protective cover (
to the desired length.
If the thread ends no longer extend:
• Switch off the equipment.
• Press the reel insert until it stops and
give a strong pull on the thread end.
If no thread ends are visible:
• Replace the thread reel (see chapter on
"Changing the Reel").
Caution! Thread remnants
may be thrown out and cause
injuries.

Working using the 3- or
4-toothed blade
Always wear the harness
and suitable protection cloth-
ing when working with the
device. Wear eye, hearing
and head protection.
Ensure that the blade is in-
stalled correctly. Replace
damaged or blunt tool parts.
There is a risk of injury.
Only use the cutting blade to work
on open, even areas. Carefully in-
spect the area to be cut and remove
all foreign bodies. Avoid hitting
stones, metal or other obstacles. The
blade can be damaged and there is
a risk of kickback by the machine.
• When working, hold the cutter above
the ground and slowly swivel the device
back and forth like a scythe in an equal
arch.
• Do not hold the cutting head at an angle.
• Do not use the device to cut wild growth
or brushwood.
• Regularly check the blades for damage
and replace as needed.

If the Equipment Vibrates

Clean the equipment, remove any grass
remnants present on the cutting head and
in the protective cover.

Care and Maintenance

The maintenance and clean-
ing work must always be
carried out with the engine
switched off and the spark
plug connector removed ( 2).
