Push the spacer bow (11) forward.
When the spacer bow is not in use
you can move it back to its parking
position.
Manner of operation
• Do not cut moist or wet grass.
• Prior to starting the appliance,
check that the cutting disk does
not contact stones, gravel or
other foreign bodies.
• Switch on the trimmer before
you approach the grass that is to
be cut.
• Do not overload the trimmer dur-
ing operation.
• Avoid contact with obstacles
(stones, walls, fences, etc.) as
this will rapidly wear out the lines.
Cutting grass

swaying the trimmer
sideways to the right
and left. Cut slowly
while the trimmer is

series of levels from top to bottom.
