Hints for optimum use
General
♦ In order to achieve optimum cutting results, only
cut dry grass.
Trimming
♦ Hold the tool as shown in fi g. K.
♦ Gently swing the trimmer from side to side.
♦ When cutting long grass, work in stages from
the top. Take small cuts.
♦ Keep the tool away from hard objects and deli-
cate plants.
♦ Cutting line will wear faster and require more
feeding if the cutting is done along pavements
or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are
being cut.
♦ If the tool starts running slowly, reduce the load.
Edging
Optimum cutting results are achieved on edges
deeper than 50 mm.
♦ Do not use the tool to create edges. To create
edges, use an edging spade.
♦ Guide the tool as shown in fi g. L.
♦ To make a closer cut, slightly tilt the tool.
