fences, etc.). The line would wear
out quickly. Use the edge of the
protective cover to keep the device
at the correct distance.
CAUTION! Do not lay the cutting
head on the ground during operation!
Extending the line
Your device is equipped with a dual-
line auto-tap feature, i.e. the two
strings are extended when you tap
the cutting head on the ground.
Procedure
1. Hold the device in operation over
a grassy area and lightly tap the
cutting head a few times on the
ground. This causes the line to
lengthen.
2. The line cutter (27) installed in the
black protective cover (28) cuts off
the thread to the desired length.
If the thread ends can not be
lengthened:
1. Switch off the device.
2. Press the spool insert as far as it
will go and pull firmly on the end of
the string.
If no line ends are visible:
1. Replace the spool (see ).
CAUTION! Risk of injury! Thread
remnants can be projected and lead
to injuries.
