onto the cutting head. To ensure that the cutting head cover
is correctly tted, try to remove it without depressing the two

Storage
Follow these recommendations for storing the trimmer.
• Clean the grass trimmer thoroughly before storing.
• Store the grass trimmer in a stable and safe position out of
the reach of children. Keep the trimmer in a dry place where
the temperature is not too hot or too cold.
• When storing the grass trimmer, do not rest it against the
oor. Hang it by the upper handgrip so that the guard does
not touch anything. If the guard rests against a surface, its
shape and dimensions could be permanently altered, and
could render the machine unsafe to use.
