7. Proper use
The trimmer is designed for cutting lawns and small areas of grass in private and hobby gardens. Tools for private and hobby gardens are not suitable for use in public facilities, parks and sport centers, along roadways, on farms or in the forestry sector. For the tool to be used properly it is imperative to follow the instructions set out in the manufacturer's directions for use.
Important! It is prohibited to use the tool to chop material for composting because of the potential danger to persons and property.
8. Before starting
You can adjust the height of the grass trimmer and the position of the auxiliary handle to obtain the optimal working position.
Adjusting the height (Fig. 9)
Rest the grass trimmer firmly on the ground. Using the slide button (A) each user can now adjust the height of the trimmer to suit his own stature. Make sure the height adjuster latches securely in place.
Adjusting the position of the auxiliary handle (Fig. 5)
Set the grass trimmer down firmly on the ground. Press the two adjuster knobs (B) and set the optimum position for the auxiliary handle (A). Release the adjuster knobs. The auxiliary handle is now fastened.
Adjusting the tilt of the handle (Fig. 10)
Rest the grass trimmer firmly on the ground. Press with you foot on the pedal (A) on the side of the motor housing. You can now adjust the handle to the required angle of tilt. To fix the handle at this angle, let go of the pedal and allow to handle to latch home.
9. Starting for the first time and operation
The grass trimmer is designed only for cutting grass. A short or worn nylon line will result in poor cutting
performance.
IMPORTANT! Make sure that you unplug the rechargeable battery before adjusting the line length (Fig. 11+12)!
The grass trimmer has a semi-automatic line extension system. Each time you activate the semi-automatic line extension system, the line will be extended to ensure that you can cut your lawn with the perfect cutting width at all times. Please note that the wear on the line will be increased if you activate the semi-automatic line extension system frequently.
Note
If the line is too long when you use the machine for the first time, the surplus end of it will be cut by the blade on the safety hood.
If the line is too short when you start the machine for the first time, press the knob on the line spool and pull the line hard. When you then start the machine for the first time the line will be cut to the perfect length automatically.
Remove the knife guard (Fig. 4/D). Caution: Risk of injury! Now insert the rechargeable battery (Fig. 11+12). The line will be cut to the correct length when the cutting head starts up again. A short or worn nylon line produces poor cutting results.
Your grass trimmer will work at its best if you observe the following instructions:
● Never use the grass trimmer without its safety devices.
- Do not cut grass when it is wet. The best results are had on dry grass.
● To switch on your grass trimmer, press the safety lock-off and the ON/OFF switch (Fig.1/Pos. 2).
● To switch off your grass trimmer, let go of the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 1/Pos. 2).
- Do not move the grass trimmer against the grass until the switch is pressed, i.e. wait until the trimmer is running.
- For the correct cutting action, swing the grass trimmer to the side as you walk forward, holding it at an angle of approx. 30^ as you do so (see Figure 13 and Figure 14).
● Make several passes to cut long grass shorter step by step from the top (see Figure 15).
● Make full use of the guide hood in order to avoid unnecessary line wear.
- Keep the grass trimmer away from hard objects in order to avoid unnecessary line wear.
GB

- Press the handle adjusting button (Fig. 1/Pos. 3)
● while pressing the handle adjusting button, turn the upper handle through 180° until it latches in place.
● The grass trimmer has now been converted into an edge cutter suitable for vertical cutting (Figure 17).
11. Replacing the line spool

● To remove the rechargeable battery, press the two locking clips (A) firmly and at the same pull the battery backwards and out, as shown in Figs. 11 + 12.
- Check that the mains voltage is the same as that marked on the rating plate of the battery charger. Connect the power supply unit to the rechargeable battery. Plug the power supply unit in the plug socket. The green and the red LEDs on the rechargeable battery will illuminate (Fig. 16). An empty battery requires approx. 4 hours to recharge. The recharging time is correspondingly shorter if the battery has any residual capacity. The temperature of the battery may rise slightly during the charging operation. This is normal.
● To install the rechargeable battery, insert it in the battery compartment on the trimmer as shown in Fig. 11. Make sure that the battery interlocks with the battery guide in the trimmer housing. Then slide the battery into the battery compartment as far as the stop. The two locking clips (Fig. 12/A) will lock into the trimmer housing in the process.
● As an alternative you can charge the rechargeable battery directly on the device. Never switch on the device during recharging.
If the battery pack fails to charge, please check
● whether there is voltage at the socket-outlet
● whether there is good contact at the charging contacts
If the battery pack still fails to charge, we request that you send
● the battery charger with charging adapter
● and the rechargeable battery pack
to our customer services department.
To ensure that the NC battery pack provides long service, you should take care to recharge it promptly. You must recharge the battery pack when you notice that the power of the hammer screwdriver drops.
Never allow the battery pack to become fully discharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.
