prevent the unit from touching the ground. Take extra
caution while edging as objects can be thrown from
the trimmer line.
10. AUTOMATIC LINE FEED SYSTEM
When initially switching on the trimmer, a small
length of line is fed out.
A 'clattering' noise will be heard for a short time. This
is normal and is caused by the line being cut by the
line cutter. Once the line is cut to the correct length,
the 'clattering' noise will stop and the trimmer motor
will run at full speed.
To feed more line, stop the trimmer completely, then
restart, allowing the motor to reach full speed. Repeat
this until you hear the 'clattering' noise of the line
cutting. (Do not repeat this procedure more than 6
times)
11. MANUALLY FEEDING THE LINE (SEE FIG.
K)
Press and release the Line Feed Button (18) whilst
gently pulling out on one of the lines until it has
reached the line cutter.
When the required amount of line is fed out, gently
pull on the second line (there is no need to press the
Line Feed Button again). If the line extends past the
line cutter, too much line has been fed out.
If too much line is fed out, remove the spool cap and
click the spool counter-clockwise until the line is at
the desired length.
12. REMOVING THE CAP
Press and hold in the two Cap Release Latches (14)
(See Fig L).
Pull the Cutting Head Cover (13) away from the
Cutting Head (16). Keep the Cutting Head Cover and
the inside of the Cutting Head clean from debris. To
replace the Cutting Head Cover, press it firmly onto
the spool holder. Ensure that it is correctly connected
by trying to remove it without depressing the two
Cap Release Latches.
13. CHANGING THE LINE SPOOL:
First take off the Cutting Head Cover (13) and remove
the old Spool (15). Place the new Spool onto the
Cutting Head (16). Feed one line through the Eyelet
(17), and then repeat for the second line. Reattach the
Cutting Head Cover.
WARNING! Your Trimmer is designed to
only use line with a maximum diameter of
0.065 (1.65mm)". Only use nylon line.
IMPORTANT - Always wind the line onto the
upper section of the spool first.
14. TO MANUALLY WIND LINE
Take approximately16ft (5m) of line and insert 5/8"
(15mm) of line into one of the holes in the upper
section of the Spool (15) (See Fig M1). Wind the line
in the direction of the arrows on the top of the Spool.
Repeat process with separate piece of line on lower
section of Spool (See Fig. M2 & M3).
6.0 AMP Electric Grass Trimmer/Edger EN
Leave approximately 4" (100mm) of line unwound
and place it into the cleat. Repeat on the lower
section of the Spool.
Care should be taken to ensure that the line is neatly
coiled on the Spool (See Fig M4). Failure to do so will
impair the efficiency of the automatic line feed.
Then fit the Spool as described above in "Changing
the Line Spool".
MAINTENANCE
After use, disconnect the machine from the electrical
outlet and check for damage. Your trimmer requires
no additional lubrication or maintenance. There are
no user serviceable parts in your trimmer. Electric
powered trimmers should only be repaired by
an authorized repairer. Use only manufacturers
recommended replacement parts and accessories.
Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your
trimmer. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always store
your trimmer in a dry place out of the reach of
children. Keep the motor ventilation slots clean. If
you see some sparks flashing in the ventilation slots,
this is normal and will not damage your trimmer.
