* The actual runtime under load of a fully charged battery depends on how you work and on the load put on the trimmer during operation.

Noise and vibration values have been determined according to the standards and regulations mentioned in the declaration of conformity. The vibration and noise measuring processes in accordance with EN 50636-2-91, were completed successfully.

Noise and vibration values have been determined according to the standards and regulations mentioned in the declaration of conformity.

The stated vibration emission value was measured in accordance with a standard testing procedure and may be used to compare one power tool to another.

The stated vibration emission value may also be used for a preliminary exposure assessment.

Warning: The vibration emission value may differ during actual use of the power tool from the stated value depending on the manner in which the power tool is used.

Try to keep the exposure to vibrations as low as possible. Examples of measures to reduce vibration exposure are the wearing of gloves when using the tool and limiting the working hours. For this purpose all parts of the operating cycle have to be considered (for example, times when the electric tool is switched off and times when it is switched on but running without any load).

After turning off the appliance, the trimming assembly will keep revolving for some time. Allow the trimming assembly to come to a standstill. Keep hands and feet away. Risk of injury!

Remove grass cuttings regularly from the cutting unit to make sure that cutting is not impaired.

Trimmer settings

To adjust the auxiliary handle:

The auxiliary handle can be set to various positions. Adjust the handle so that the cap is tilted slightly forward as you work (see picture below "cutting grass").

① Loosen the screw (25) in the handle and move the auxiliary handle (5) to your favourite position. Retighten the quick-release levers (25). The latching steps integrated into the holder prevent the handle changing position unintentionally.

To adjust the height:

The telescopic shaft allows you to adjust the appliance to your personal size.

② Loosen the threaded bush (8). Adjust the telescopic shaft (9) to the correct length and tighten the threaded bush.

To adjust the cutting angle:

Changing the cutting angle lets you trim grass at places that a difficult to reach, e.g. under benches or wall offsets.

③ Tread on the pedal (11) on the motor housing and tilt the telescopic shaft (9). There are 5 preset tilt angles (see "Work instructions").

Function as a lawn trimmer:

Cutting angle position 1 - 4 (rotary position 0°)

Function as a lawn edge trimmer:

Cutting angle position 5 (rotary position 180°)

To adjust the handle rod:

The handle rod (6) can be turned by 180^ (see “Work instructions”).

④ Press the latch (7) to release the lock and rotate the handle section 0° 180° (6) until it latches into the desired position.

Leave the handle (6) in the 0°-position when using the device as a lawn trimmer in the cutting angle positions 1 - 4. The protective cover must not be pointing away from the user. Risk of injury.

To adjust the spacer bow

(flower guard): The spacer bow keeps the trimming assembly away from plants and trunks not to be cut.

⑤ Fold down the distance bracket (15). If the distance bracket is not required, fold it up into the park position.

Contact our Service Centre about repairs and servicing not described in this manual. Only use OEM parts. Risk of injury!

Turn off the appliance and, before doing any servicing, remove the battery.

The following cleaning and servicing should be done regularly. This will ensure a long and reliable service life.

Cleaning

Do not spray the appliance with water and do not immerse it in water. Electric shock hazard!

• Keep clean the ventilation slots, motor housing and handles of the appliance. Use a damp cloth or a brush. Do not use cleaning agents or solvents. You may otherwise irreparably damage the appliance.
  • After every trimming session, remove grass and soil from the protective cover and the trimming assembly.

General maintenance

• Prior to every use, check the appliance for obvious defects such as loose, worn or damaged parts. Ensure that the screws in the cutting device are firmly in place.
• Check covers and safety devices for damages and correct installation. Replace as necessary.

Replacing the cutting insert

1. Slide the cutting insert (13) inward and push it out of the pin (23) on the cutting disk (12).
2. Place the new cutting insert (13) on the pin (23) and pull out the insert until it snaps in.

Replacing the spool

1. Remove the battery (17) from the device.
2. Open the cap (13) by simultaneously pressing the two releases (20) on the cap (13).
3. Remove the cover of the cap (13) and take out the spool.
4. Press the thread ends of the new spool out of the spool slots.
5. Insert the new spool into the cap (13). The side of the spool, on which the rotation direction is indicated by arrows, must be visible after insertion.

Storage

• Store the trimmer in a dry place well out of reach of children.
• Do not stand the trimmer on its protective cover. Suspend it by its upper handle in such a manner that the protective cover does not come into contact with other objects. This is because the protective cover could become deformed, thereby changing its dimensions and its safety properties.

Disposal and protection of the environment

Guarantee

This appliance has a 24-month guarantee. This equipment is not suitable for commercial use. Commercial use will invalidate the guarantee.

Damages, which can be attributed to natural wear, overloading or inappropriate use, are excluded from the guarantee.

Certain component parts are subject to a normal wear and are excluded from the guarantee

The guarantee applies for all material and manufacturing defects. This guarantee does not extend to cover product parts that are subject to normal wear and may therefore be considered as wearing parts (e.g. cutting inserts and battery) or to cover damage to breakable parts (e.g. switches). Furthermore, the prerequisite for guarantee services is that the references indicated in the operating instructions regarding cleaning and maintenance have been adhered to.

Damage, which has been caused from material or manufacturing faults, will be made good free of charge, by replacement delivery or repair.

This requires that the appliance is re-turned to the merchant undismantled and with proof of purchase and guarantee.

Repair Service

For a charge, repairs not covered by the guarantee can be carried out by our service branch, which will be happy to issue a cost estimate for you.

We can handle only equipment that has been sent with adequate packaging and postage.
