Always ensure the trimmer cord is wound tightly and evenly around the drum, otherwise the machine will generate harmful vibration. • Only use the recommended trimmer heads and trimmer cords. These have been tested by the manufacturer to suit a particular engine size. This is especially important when a fully automatic trimmer head is used. Only use the recommended cutting attachment. See the chapter on Technical data. Cutting equipment This section describes how to choose and maintain your cutting equipment in order to: • Reduce the risk of blade thrust. • Obtain maximum cutting performance. • Extend the life of cutting equipment.

Refer to the instructions for the cutting attachment to check the correct way to load the cord and the correct cord diameter. ! WARNING! Always stop the engine before doing any work on the cutting attachment. This continues to rotate even after the throttle has been released. Ensure that the cutting attachment has stopped completely and disconnect the HT lead from the spark plug before you start to work on it. • Smaller machines generally require small trimmer heads and vice versa. This is because when clearing using a cord the engine must throw out the cord radially from the trimmer head and overcome the resistance of the grass being cleared. • The length of the cord is also important. A longer cord requires greater engine power than a shorter cord of the same diameter. • Make sure that the cutter on the trimmer guard is intact. This is used to cut the cord to the correct length. • To increase the life of the cord it can be soaked in water for a couple of days. This will make the line tougher so that it lasts longer.

Cutting equipment
This section describes how to choose and maintain your
cutting equipment in order to:
•
Reduce the risk of blade thrust.
•
Obtain maximum cutting performance.
•
Extend the life of cutting equipment.
Trimmer head
•
Only use the recommended trimmer heads and
trimmer cords. These have been tested by the
manufacturer to suit a particular engine size. This is
especially important when a fully automatic trimmer
head is used. Only use the recommended cutting
attachment. See the chapter on Technical data.
•
Smaller machines generally require small trimmer
heads and vice versa. This is because when clearing
using a cord the engine must throw out the cord
radially from the trimmer head and overcome the
resistance of the grass being cleared.
•
The length of the cord is also important. A longer cord
requires greater engine power than a shorter cord of
the same diameter.
•
Make sure that the cutter on the trimmer guard is
intact. This is used to cut the cord to the correct length.
•
To increase the life of the cord it can be soaked in
water for a couple of days. This will make the line
tougher so that it lasts longer.
