Extend the cutting line:

Your device is equipped with a dual line
auto-feed mechanism.
The line extends automatically every time
the device is switched on. For proper
functioning of the automatic line extension
mechanism, the spool must have stopped
completely before you restart the device.
If the lines are initially longer than the cut-
ting diameter, they are automatically short-
ened to the right length by the line cutter
(24).
Check the nylon line regularly for
damage and make sure the cutting
line still has the length specifi ed by
the thread cutter.
• If no line ends are visible: Re-
place the spool (14) (see "Cleaning
and Maintenance").
• Setting the line length manually:
Remove the battery from the device!
Lightly pull on the thread ends and
press the locking button (23) repeat-
edly if necessary until the thread ends
protrude beyond the line cutter (24).

Manner of operation

WARNING. Danger of injury!
• Do not cut moist or wet grass.
• Before starting the unit, make
sure that the spool is not touch-
ing any stones, scree, or other
foreign objects.
• Switch on the trimmer before you
approach the grass that is to be
cut.
• Do not overload the trimmer dur-
ing operation.
• Avoid contact with obstacles
(stones, walls, fences, etc.). The
nylon thread on the spool would
wear out quickly.

danger of lightning!
