Use as a grass trimmer

• Grass is best cut when dry and not too
long.
• The telescopic shaft makes it easier to
work with the grass trimmer:
Push the equipment slowly over the
ground on the rollers. This will give an
even cutting height.
Adjusting the height of the telesco-
pic shaft:
• Adjust the length of the telescopic shaft
to your body height using the height-
adjustment screw (17).
Adjusting the working angle:
For a comfortable edge cut, the equipment
holder (19) can be rotated by 90° to the
right or left on the telescopic shaft rotary
joint (18).
• Set the desired working angle by turn-
ing the telescopic shaft equipment
holder (19). The holder clicks into the
desired position.

in combination with the tel-
escopic shaft. There is a risk
of cut wounds.
• Move the unit forward evenly.
• The double-sided cutting heads enable
cutting in both directions or by swing-
ing the unit from side to side.
