2. Use the included screw (E) and nut (F) to fix the
protection cover (Fig. 3).
ATTENTION : Make sure that all components are
mounted and assembled correctly and all screws
properly tightened.
ATTENTION ! - Do always act in accordance with
the applicable safety instructions and apply all
required safety measures. The trimmer may
only be used to cut grass or smaller weeds. It
is explicitly forbidden to cut any other kind of
material. Do not use the trimmer as a lever to
lift, remove or crush objects; do also not fix it to
rigid holding devices. It is forbidden to mount any
devices or supplements to the trimmer's drive unit
that are not explicitly released for that purpose by
the manufacturer.
MOUNTING THE ATTACHMENT (Fig. 4–6)
Attention: Switch off the device before mounting
the attachment. DANGER OF INJURY !
Note: To facilitate mounting and dismounting the attach-
ment put the tool on the ground or a workbench.
1. Loosen the knob (A) by turning it anticlockwise (Fig.
4).
2. Hold the attachment (B) and push it straightly into the
quick-change coupling (C) until the release button (D)
engages into the corresponding hole (E) of the coupling
(Fig. 4+5).
3. Turn the knob (A) clockwise to tighten it (Fig. 6).
Attention: Before operation, the release button
must have engaged into the hole of the coupling
and the knob must have been tightened firmly!

FUEL AND OIL

FUEL
For a maximum performance of your trimmer, use
regular petrol (two-star, unleaded) mixed with a special
2-stroke engine oil (40:1). Please adhere to the mixing
instructions.
ATTENTION : Do never use pure fuel without oil. This
will damage the engine and you will loose your warranty
rights. Do not use fuel mixtures that have been stored
for more than 90 days.
ATTENTION : Only use high-quality 2-stroke mixing
oil for air-cooled engines, mixture ratio 40:1.
FUEL MIXTURE
Mix the fuel with 2-stroke oil in an approved container.
Refer to the mixing table to find the required mixture ratio
for the fuel and oil. Shake the container to properly mix
the two fluids.

STARTING THE ENGINE

Cold start
In order not to overtax the engine when starting it, cut the
trimmer cord to 17 cm (Fig. 7).
1. Put the ignition switch in position 'I' (Fig. 8).
2. Slide the choke to position 'Start' (Fig. 9). This is not
required in case of a warm start.
3. Push the fuel pump (A) 8 times (Fig. 10).
4. Pull the starter rope 2-3 times (Fig. 11); to start the
motor it is required to evenly, quickly pull the rope.
5. Slide the choke to 'RUN' position (Fig. 12), slightly push
the throttle lever (9) and pull the starter rope again until
the motor starts running. (To push the throttle lever (6)
it is necessary to first push the locking lever (8) (fig.
13).
6. Let the motor idle for about 10 seconds to warm up.
7. If the motor does not start repeat the steps 1-6.
NOTE:If the engine should not start after several
tries proceed as described in the chapter 'Trouble-
shooting'.
NOTE : Always pull out the starter rope straight. If you
do not pull straight the rope will chafe at the eyelet. This
chafe will cause the rope to fan out and thus to a higher
wear and tear. Always hold the starter rope handle when
the rope is pulled back. Do not let the rope flick back
when it is pulled out. This could lead to a hook-up of
the rope and/or a damage to the starter housing.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
Release the throttle lever. Let the engine idle. Push the
ignition switch to position "Stop". The motor will now stop.
Emergency stop: If it should be necessary to stop
the tool immediately push the "STOP" button.

OPERATING ADVICE

- If you are not familiar with the trimmer train the handling
of the device with the engine not running (AUS / OFF).
- Always check the territory; solid objects as metal parts,
bottles, stones etc. may be hurled away and cause serious
injuries or permanently damage the device. Should you
touch a solid object with the trimmer shut the engine off
immediately (AUS / OFF) and examine the trimmer for
possibly existing damages. Do not use the device when
it is damaged or shows sign of defects.
- Always trim and cut with the engine running in the higher
speed range. Do not let the engine run at low speed at
the beginning of or during the trimming.
- Use the device for its provided purpose only, i.e., trimming
and cutting grass and weeds.
- Never hold the cutting head higher than your knees during
operation.
- If working on a slope always stand with the cutting unit
above you. Only work on sloping sites if you stand on firm
ground.
TRIMMING
The trimmer – properly equipped with protection cover and
cutting head – trims high grass, brushwood and weeds
at places that are difficult to access along fences, walls,
foundations and around tree trunks. The trimmer may also
be used for cutting down to the ground (e.g., clean-out works
in the garden and in broken, thickly covered areas).
