GENERAL POWER TOOL
SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING: Read all safety
warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions
may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases
or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any
way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if
your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use
the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool
outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use
a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your
finger on the switch or energising power
tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating
part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper
footing and balance at all times.This
enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of
dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.

10
3-in-1 Grass Trimmer/Edger EN
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use
the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which
it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the
reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in
the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power
tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Recharge only with the charger
specified by the manufacturer. A
charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when
used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of
injury and fire.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep
it away from other metal objects, like
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
or other small metal objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal
to another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid
may be ejected from the battery;
avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
6) SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced by
a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.

AUTOMATIC LINE FEED SYSTEM
When initially switching on the trimmer, a
small length of line is fed out. Each time the
tool is started from rest it will advance about
6.35mm of trimmer line.
A ‘clattering’ noise will be heard when the
lines hit the Line Cutter. DO NOT BE ALARMED
this is quite normal. After about 5 seconds
the line will be cut to the correct length and
the noise will reduce as the motor gains full
speed.
If the noise of the line being cut can’t be
heard, more line will need to be fed out.
To feed more line, it is first necessary to allow
the trimmer to stop completely; it must come
to a complete rest, then restart, allowing the
motor to reach full speed.
Repeat above until you hear the line hitting
against the Line Cutter.
TO MANUALLY FEED THE LINE
(See Fig. K1)
Turn off the trimmer and remove the battery.
If required, line can be fed out manually.
To operate, press and release manual Line
Feed Button (17), while gently pulling out the
line until it is long enough to reach the Line
Cutter.
If the line extends past the Line Cutter, too
much line has been fed out.
If too much line is fed out, remove the Spool

15
3-in-1 Grass Trimmer/Edger EN
Cap and turn Spool counter-clockwise until the
line is at the desired length.
TO REMOVE THE SPOOL CAP COVER
(See Fig. K2)
Press and hold in the two Cap Release Latches
(19) (See Fig. K2).
Pull the Spool Cap Cover (18) away from the
Cutting Head (21). Keep the Spool Cap Cover
and the inside of the Cutting Head clean from
debris. To replace the Spool Cap Cover, press
it firmly onto the Spool Holder. Ensure that
it is correctly connected by trying to remove
it without depressing the two Cap Release
Latches.
REPLACE THE TRIMMER LINE AND
SPOOL (See Fig. K3).
Turn off the trimmer and remove the battery.
Remove Spool Cap Cover.
Remove the old Spool from Spool Holder.
Clear any broken line or cutting debris from
the spool area. Pull the line from the new
replacement Spool through the eyelet of the
Spool Holder. Place new Spool into the holder
with the cut out areas of the Spool facing
inward or down. When installed into the Spool
Holder, the smooth side of the Spool should
be visible.
Release line from cleat on the Spool.
Refit the Spool Cap Cover.
TO MANUALLY WIND LINE (See Fig. L1-
L4)
Take approximately 3m of line. Insert 15mm
of line into the Spool holes and wind line in
the direction of the arrows on the top of the
Spool.
Leave approximately 100mm of line unwound
and place into the cleat.
Ensure that the line is neatly coiled on
the Spool. Failure to do so will impair the
efficiency of the automatic line feed.
Then fit the Spool as described above in
“Replace the trimmer line and Spool”.
