GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Always remove the battery before you work on any part of the cutting equipment. It continues to rotate even after the throttle control has been released. Check that the cutting equipment has stopped completely and remove the battery before you start any work on it. Trimmer head WARNING! Always use recommended ! trimmer line. See technical data. Failure to follow this instruction may cause personal injury. IMPORTANT! Always ensure the trimmer line is wound tightly and evenly around the drum, otherwise the machine will generate harmful vibration. • Only use the recommended trimmer heads and trimmer lines. These have been tested by the manufacturer to suit a particular motor 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 before use. This will make the cord tougher so that it lasts longer. Different line lengths can result in unnecessary vibrations. Tap the trimmer head to get correct lengths on the line. 12 - English
