Working using the thread
spool
•­ In­small­grass­areas­hold­the­device­at­
an­angle­of­about­30°­and­swing­the­
cutting head evenly to the right and left
with­a­semi-circular­movement.­
• The best results are obtained with a
maximum­grass­length­of­15­cm.­If­the­
grass­is­taller,­it­is­recommended­to­
mow several times.
•­ To­cut­around­trees,­fence­posts­or­
other­obstacles,­slowly­move­the­device­
around the obstacle and cut with the
thread ends.
•­ Avoid­any­contact­with­fixed­obstacles­
(rocks,­walls,­picket­fences,­etc.).­The­
thread would wear out quickly. Use the
edge of the protective cover to keep the
device at the correct distance.
Attention! Do not lay the cut-
ting head on the ground dur-
ing operation!

Extending the line

Your­device­is­equipped­with­a­dual-line­
auto-tap­feature,­i.e.­the­two­strings­are­
extended­when­you­tap­the­cutting­head­
on the ground.
1.­ Hold­the­device­in­operation­over­a­
grassy area and lightly tap the cutting
head a few times on the ground. This
causes the thread to lengthen.
2. The line cutter (26) inserted into the
protective cover (7) cuts the line to the
desired length.
If the line ends cannot
be lengthened:
• Turn off the device.
