Operating the trimmer

CAUTION: How to avoid accidents and injuries:

Preparations:

• Never allow children and people who are not familiar with these Operating Instructions to use the trimmer. Local regulations may stipulate a minimum age for operators.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabili-

ties, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

- Keep the equipment well away from by-standers, children and pets. Turn off the equipment if they are in the vicinity.

- Always wear appropriate work clothes and personal protective equipment! Always wear a face shield or goggles as well as ear defenders, boots or shoes with non-slip soles, strong long trousers and work gloves. Never operate the equipment while bare footed or wearing sandals. The protective devices and your personal protective equipment will protect yourself and other people and ensure that the equipment can be smoothly operated:

- Never use the equipment if it is damaged, incomplete or has been modified without the approval of the manufacturer. Never operate the equipment if the protective equipment is defective. Before starting up the equipment always check that the equipment is in a perfectly safe condition, especially the power cable, the switch and the protective cover. Never disconnect or remove any protective devices. This ensures that the equipment remains safe.

Use:

• Always maintain a secure footing while working. Be especially careful when working on a sloping terrain.

This enables you to control the equipment better in unexpected situations.

- Do not operate the equipment if you are tired or lack concentration and after having drunk alcohol or taken medication. Always take a work break in due time. A moment of carelessness when using the equipment can result in serious injury.

- Do not use the equipment while it is raining, in poor weather conditions and when the surrounding area is wet. Only work when the light conditions are good.

There is a risk of accidents.

- Always keep the cutting line well away from the body, particularly the hands and feet, when you switch on the motor and while the motor is running. Risk of injury from cuts.

- Never start the equipment when it is turned over or not in the correct working position.

- Switch off the motor and disconnect the plug from the mains socket:

• Whenever you are not using the equipment
• If the equipment is left unattended
• When the equipment is being cleaned, maintained or is to be inspected
• When relocating the equipment

- If the power or extension cable is damaged - When you remove or exchange the cutting device or manually adjust the length of the cutting line

- Check when starting up and working with the cutting head that it does not come into contact with stones, rubble, wire or other foreign bodies. Danger due to materials blown out of machine.

- Never try to stop the cutting device (cutting line) with your hands. Always wait until it has stopped rotating. Contact with the cutter can result in injury.

- Only use an original cutting line. The use of a metal wire instead of the nylon line is impermissible. This can result in serious injury.

- Do not use the equipment to cut grass that is not growing on the ground, e.g. grass on walls, rocks, etc. Using the equipment for purposes other than those intended can result in dangerous situations.

- Do not traverse gravel paths while the equipment is operating. Gravel can be thrown up and result in injury.

- Do not operate the equipment in the vicinity of inflammable liquids or gases as this could give rise to the danger of a fire or explosion.

- Store the equipment in a dry place that is not accessible to children.

CAUTION! The following states how damage to the equipment and possible injury to people can be avoided:

Taking care of the equipment:

• Ensure that the ventilation openings are not clogged.
• Only use spare parts and accessories that have been supplied or recommended by the manufacturer.
• Never try to repair the equipment yourself. All work that has not been listed in these Instructions must only be carried out by an authorised servicing agency.
• Treat the equipment with the greatest care. Always keep the equipment clean for better and safer work. Follow the maintenance instructions.
• Never overload the equipment. Always work within the stated capacity range. Do not use low-power machines for heavy-duty work. Do not operate the equipment for purposes for which it is not intended.
• Always inspect the equipment before it is to be used. Do not operate the equipment if safety devices, parts of the cutting device or bolts are missing, worn out or damaged.

Electrical safety:

CAUTION! The following states how to avoid accidents and injuries due to electric shock:

- Before each usage, check the mains power cable and the extension cable for damage and signs of aging. Do not use the device if the cable is damaged or worn. Damaged mains power cables increase the risk of electric shock.

• Always keep the extension cable well away from the cutting tools.

Should the power cable become damaged during work, then instantly disconnect the power cable from the mains. DO NOT TOUCH THE POWER CABLE BEFORE IT HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAINS! Risk of electric shock.

• If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it must be replaced with a special power cable, which is available from the manufacturer or a customer service agent of the same.
• Check that the mains voltage is the same as indicated on the rating plate.
• Wherever possible connect the equipment to a power socked with a residual-current circuit breaker that has a rated current of not more than 30 mA.
• Protect the equipment from moisture. The equipment must not be moist nor operated in a moist environment. Water entry into the equipment increases the risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed parts (e.g. metal fences, metal posts). There is an

increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed.

• Only use extension cables with a maximum length of 75 m that have been approved for open-air use. The stranded cord diameter of the extension cable must be at least 2.5 mm ^2 . Always unreel a cable drum to its full length so that the entire cable can be inspected for damage.
• Never pass an operating equipment over the extension cable. Ensure that the power cable is always trailing behind the operator. The extension cable can be accidentally severed.
• Use the envisaged cable suspensions when attaching an extension cable.
• Never carry the equipment by its power cable. Never pull the cable to disconnect the plug from the mains socket. Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp edges. The mains power cable could be damaged.

Assembling instructions

Always disconnect the plug before working on the trimmer and wait until the cutting lines have completely stopped. There is the danger of electric shock and the possibility of injury by the cutting lines.

Use OEM parts only and mind the thread cutter during assembly. Risk of injury!

B Assembling the protection cover:

1. Place the protective cover (14) on the motor head (12).
2. Fasten the protective cover using two of the screws provided.

Mounting the distance roller:

1. Place the distance roller (17) on the motor head (12).
2. Fasten the distance roller using two of the screws provided.

Mounting the additional handle:

1. Pull the ends of the additional handle (5) apart and slide them over the handle unit (20).

Operation

Caution: Risk of injury! Never use the trimmer without its protective cover. Always check the operability of the trimmer before it is used. Check that the mains voltage is the same as indicated on the rating plate. Always wear goggles when working with the trimmer.

Please observe local regulations concerning noise protection.

D Switching ON and OFF

1. Form a loop in the end of the extension cable, conduct it through the opening in the upper handle (2) and hang it on to the strain relief (4).
2. Connect the trimmer to the mains socket.

GB

1. Ensure a safe stance and hold the equipment firmly with both hands. Do not deposit the cutting head on the ground.
2. To turn on, use your thumb to actuate the switch lock (3a), then press the On/Off switch (3b). Release the switch lock.

To turn off, release the On/Off switch (3b). There is no continuous operation mode.

After the trimmer has been switched off the cutting head will continue to rotate for a few seconds. Keep hands and feet well away.

The ON / OFF switch must not be locked in place. The trimmer must not be used if the switch is damaged. There is the immediate danger of injury if the motor does not switch off after the ON / OFF switch has been released.

Caution: Always remove grass residue from the line cutter so that the cutting effect is not impaired.

Trimmer settings

Adjusting the additional handle:

The additional handle can be set in different positions. Set the handle in such a manner that the cutting head is slightly tilting forwards when in the working position.

①

Release the knurled nut (6) and adjust the additional handle (5) in the required position. Retighten the knurled nut.

Adjusting the height:

The telescopic tube enables you to adjust the trimmer to your height.

② Release the clamp for the handle section (8). Adjust the telescopic tube (9) to the desired length and re-fasten the clamp (8).

To adjust the cutting angle:

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

② Release the clamp for the handle section (8). Rotate the handle section (7) by 90° or 180°. Re-fasten the clamp (8).

To adjust the handle rod:

The handle rod turns by 90° and 180° (see chapter: „Working Instructions“)

③ Operate the foot lever (13) on the motor head (12) and tilt the telescopic tube (9). There are 6 possible positions.

Adjusting the spacing bow (flower protection):

The spacing bow keeps plants and stalks that are not to be cut away from the cutting lines. If you do not need the spacer bow, you can place it behind the castor roll (parking position).

④ Tip the spacer bow (16) forward into its working position.

Positioning the chassis:

You can adjust the chassis (11) to the required cutting height. In addition, the chassis (11) can be folded away if the grass is too high or if edges need to be cut.

⑤ Press the chassis adjustment (10) and tilt the chassis (11) into the desired position. There are five possible positions.

Lengthening the cutting lines

A short or worn string will make bad cuts. If you notice reduced cutting performance, you should therefore check if there is still enough string on the spool. Pull the power plug first! Spool replacement is detailed in section „Replacing the Trimming Assembly“.

Fully automatic dual line system

The equipment features a fully automatic dual line system.

The lines will automatically elongate every time you turn on the appliance. To support proper line elongation, ensure that the coil has stopped moving completely before turning on the appliance again.

If the lines should be longer that defined by the cutting circle then they will be automatically cut to the correct length by the line cutter

Regularly check the nylon lines for damage and whether the lines still have the correct length defined by the line cutter

When no line ends are visible:

- Renew the line spool (see Cleaning and maintenance", Replacing the trimming assembly").

Adjusting the line length manually:

- Disconnect the plug from the mains socket! Press and hold the stop button (21) at the cutter head (15) and pull both threads outwards

Working Instructions

WARNING. Danger of injury!

Do not cut moist or wet grass.

- Before starting the trimmer check that the cutting head will not come into contact with stones, rubble or other foreign bodies.

- Switch on the trimmer before you approach the grass that is to be cut.

• Always trail the extension cable behind you. Do not pass the operating trimmer over the extension cable as the cable could be damaged.

- Do not overload the trimmer during operation.

- Avoid contacting solid obstacles (stones, walls, fences, etc.) since this would make the string wear out too quickly. Use the edge of the protective cover to keep the appliance away from such obstacles.

Cutting grass

Two-step illustration of a worker using a tool to clean or walk, showing the motion and shading (no text or symbols)

Cut the grass by swaying the trimmer side-ways to the right and left. Cut slowly, tipping the appliance slightly forwards.

Long grass should be cut at layers from top to bottom.

Vertical cutting / edge trimming

• Be particularly careful and attentive when holding the cutter head vertically. To avoid injuries, keep enough distance to the cutting thread.
• To prevent the thread from wearing out quickly, avoid contacting solid surfaces.
• To trim lawn edges, slowly move the appliance along the lawn edges.
  • Vertical trimming is best done by moving the appliance on its castor roll.
• You can also tip the chassis to the left or right and use it as a guide for edge trimming.

Vertical cut settings:

- Handle rod: 180^ (see E ②)

• Cutting angle: Vertical (see ③)
• Spacer bow in parking position
• No chassis

Cleaning and maintenance

Always disconnect the plug from the mains socket before working on the trimmer.

Any work that is not described in these Instructions must be carried out by a servicing agency authorized by us. Only use original parts and be very careful with the line cutter during installation work. Danger of injury!

Cleaning

Do not jet water onto the trim-mer and do not clean it under

flowing water. This would result in the danger of an electric shock and the trimmer could be damaged.

Always keep the trimmer clean. Do no use cleaning agents and solvents.

• After the work has been completed remove all grass and soil from the cutting device and the protective cover.
- Ensure that the ventilation slots are always clean and free of grass.
- Clean the trimmer with a soft brush or a cloth.

Never manipulate the cutting device by inserting worn out original or alien parts. Only use original spare parts. Never use metal lines. The use of alien parts can result in serious personal injury and cause irreparable damage to the trimmer and the guarantee will become instantly null and void.

Exchanging the line spool:

1. Disconnect the plug from the mains socket.
2. Remove the spare spool from the spare spool holder (19).
3. Turn over the trimmer so that the cutting head (15) is facing upwards.
4. Simultaneously press the two locks on the cutting head (15) and remove the hood (22) with the line spool (23).

5. Insert the new spool with the smooth side facing upwards in the cutting head and thread the two lines through the line eyelets (24). Ensure that the line ends do not slip out of the spool slots.

6. Return the hood. Ensure that the locks of the hood are accurately inserted in the corresponding recesses of the cutting head. They lock in audibly.

7. Press the retaining head (21), release it again and pull the ends of the cord out a little. Repeat this process until the ends of the cord project a little beyond the cord cutter).

Check the string cutter. Do not use the appliance without a string or with a defective string. Contact our nearest Service Centre in case the string cutter is damaged.

Storage

• Carefully clean the trimmer and its accessories after each use (see “Cleaning and maintenance”), thereby avoiding mould formation.
• Store the trimmer in a dry place well out of reach of children.
• Do not expose the trimmer for extended periods to direct sunlight.
• Do not wrap plastic sacks around the trimmer as this could result in the formation of moisture and mould.
• 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
