GB
until the switch is pressed, i.e. the grass
trimmer is in operation.
•To cut properly, swing the machine sideways
while moving forwards. Keep the grass
trimmer inclined at an angle of approx. 30°
while you do so (see Figs. 17 and 18).
•If the grass is long, the grass must be cut
shorter in stages, starting from the tip
(see Fig. 19).
•Use the guard hood to prevent
unnecessary wear.
•To avoid unnecessary wear, keep the
grass trimmer away from hard objects.
Using the grass trimmer as an edge trimmer
To cut the edges of lawns and flower beds, the
grass trimmer can be converted as follows:
•Remove the battery pack
•Pull the lock for the rotatable motor head in the
direction of the arrow as shown in Fig. 20.
•Turn the motor head through 90° in the
required direction until it latches in place (Fig.
21).
•Now you have converted the grass trimmer to
an edge trimmer for cutting the lawn vertically.
•To convert the equipment back to its
original state, proceed in reverse order.
