APPLICATIONS MAINTENANCE

7. LINE REPLACEMENT6. CUTTING METHODS

Trimming/mowing

Swing the trimmer from side to side as

you walk forward. Always keep the line

spool parallel to the ground. Check the

site and decide what cutting height you

require.Guideandholdthelinespool

attherequiredheighttoensurethat

you cut evenly.

Low trimming and mowing

For mowing, you want to cut all the

vegetation down to the ground. To do this,

set the line spool at an angle of 30° to

theright.Placethehandleintherequired

position. Remember the increased risk of

injury to the user, watchers and animals and

the danger of damaging other items due to

objects (for example stones) being thrown

out. Always cut away from yourself. Never

draw the trimmer towards yourself.

Cutting along fences/foundations/trees

When cutting approach wire mesh fences, natural stone walls and

foundations slowly so that you can cut close to them without striking

the obstacle with the line. If, for example, the line strikes stones, stone

walls or foundations, it will wear or fray.

If the line strikes wire fencing it will break.

When trimming around tree trunks, approach slowly so that the line

does not strike the bark. Approach grass or weeds with the tip of the

line and tilt the line spool forwards slightly.

Jamming

If the cutting blade jams as a result of attempting to cut vegetation that

is too dense, switch off the engine immediately. Remove the grass and

scrub from the trimmer before you restart it.

Preventing recoil

When you work with the blade there is

a risk of recoil if it strikes solid objects

such as tree trunks, branches, tree

stumps, stones or the like. This will

throw the trimmer backwards in the

direction opposite to the rotation of the

tool. This can cause you to lose control

of the trimmer. Do not use the blade

near fences, metal posts, boundary

stones or foundations.

For cutting dense stalks, position it as

shown to prevent recoil.

WARNING! BEFORE CLEANING YOUR TRIMMER/

CUTTER OR CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE

PROCEDURE, MAKE SURE THAT THE ENGINE IS OFF

AND IS COOL. DISCONNECT THE SPARK PLUG TO

PREVENT ACCIDENTAL STARTING

WARNING! TAKE EXTREME CARE DURING MOWING

WORK. WHEN DOING SUCH WORK KEEP A

DISTANCE OF 30 METERS BETWEEN YOURSELF AND

OTHER PEOPLE OR ANIMALS.

WARNING! DO NOT REMOVE ANY OBJECTS FROM

FOOTPATHS, ETC. USING THE TRIMMER. THE

TRIMMER IS A POWERFUL TOOL AND CAN THROW

SMALL STONES AND OTHER OBJECTS A DISTANCE OF

15 METERS OR MORE, CAUSING INJURIES AND DAMAGE

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

1) Work area

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate petrol tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of

ammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or

fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a petrol tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Personal safety

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a petrol

tool.Donotuseapowertoolwhileyouaretiredorundertheinuenceofdrugs,alcohol,or

medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal

injury.

b) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.Safetyequipmentsuchasadustmask,

non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce

personal injuries.

c) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is

left attached to a rotating part of the petrol tool may result in personal injury.

d) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control

of the petrol tool in unexpected situations.

e) 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.

f) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities

ensure that these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust-

related hazards.

3) Petrol tool use and care

a) Do not force the petrol tool. Use the correct petrol tool for your application. The correct

petrol tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

b) Do not use the petrol tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any petrol tool that cannot

be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Turn tool off completely before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or

storing petrol tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the petrol tool

accidentally. Hair can be caught in moving parts.

d) Store idle petrol tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
