5.9.1 Adjusting the cutting height (Fig. 16-17
– only model GE-CT 18/28 Li TC)
Caution! Remove the battery!
It is recommended to adjust the cutting height
when the grass trimmer is not fi tted.
Turn over the trimmer cart so that both axles are
accessible. Pull back the axles and place them in
the same notch on both sides (notch D = 35 mm
cutting height, notch E = 55 mm cutting height).
For a uniform cutting height you must place both
axles in the same notch. Fit the grass trimmer to
the trimmer cart (see section 5.9)
6. Operation
The grass trimmer has an automatic line extensi-
on system. Each time the equipment is switched
on, the line will be automatically extended to
ensure that you always work with the perfect
cutting width. The blade on the guard hood will
cut the line to the permissible length. If necessary
you can extend the line manually by pressing the
release button (Fig. 8 / Item 7a) and pulling simul-
taneously on the line.
Note: Frequently switching the equipment on and
off will increase line wear.
Caution! Bits of the nylon line catapulted out
into the surroundings could cause injuries!
To obtain maximum performance from your grass
trimmer, please follow these instructions:
•
Never use the grass trimmer without the
guard.
•
Do not mow grass when it is wet. The best
results are achieved on dry grass.
•
To switch on your grass trimmer, press the
safety lock-off (Fig.13 / Item 1) and the On/Off
switch (Fig. 13 / Item 2).
•
To switch off your grass trimmer, let go of the
On/Off switch (Fig. 13 / Item 2) again.
•
Do not allow the grass trimmer near the grass
until the switch is pressed, i.e. the grass trim-
mer is in operation.
•
To cut properly, swing the grass trimmer side-
ways while moving forwards. Keep the grass
trimmer inclined at an angle of approx. 30°
while you do so (see Figs. 18 and 19).
•
If the grass is long, the grass must be cut
shorter in stages, starting from the tip (see
Fig. 20).
•
Use the edge guide and the guard hood to
prevent unnecessary wear on the line.
