results in a larger range.
WARNING
Overhead working positions are tiring and should
be used only for short periods for reasons of
work safety. Set the adjustable cutter bar to the
most suitable angle so that the trimmer can be
held in a lower, less tiring position while still pro‐
viding adequate reach.
