- While using metal cutting tools, there is generally
B
a risk of recoil, when the tool hits a solid obstacle
(stones, trees, branches, etc.). Thereby, the tool is hurled
backwards against the rotating direction.
- To cut rank growth and brushwood, you "immerse" the
cutting blade from the top. This way, the objects to be
cut will be chaed.
CAUTION: Be especially careful, when using this
working technique, because the further away the
cutting tool is from the ground, the higher is the
risk that objects to be cut and particles will be
hurled sideways.
- To comb through young tree populations and to
cut grass, move the tool like a scythe closely above the
ground.
CAUTION: Incorrect use and misuse can damage the
bush cutter and cause severe injuries because of pieces
hurled away.
- To minimize the risk of accidents by use of the
cutting blade, take note of following points:
- Never cut shrubbery or wood whose diameter is
larger than 2 cm.
- Avoid contact with metal bodies, stones, etc.
- Periodically check the cutting blade for damages.
Never continue to use a damaged cutting blade.
- When the cutting blade becomes apparently blunt, it
must be sharpened according to instructions.
When the cutting blade is apparently out of balance, it
must be replaced.
Automatic Feeding of Trimming Line
To extend the cutting line(22), run the engine at full
speed and tap the line spool on the ground. This will
automatically extend the line. The blade on the guard
hood will cut the line to the permissible length.

Replacing the line spool/ cutting line
-Dismantle the line spool. Press the spool and remove
one half of the housing.(B27-1 and B27-2)
- Take the spool plate(k) out of the line spool
housing(B28).
- Place the new cutting line in the center and hang the
loop which has formed into the recess in the Spool
splitter(B29).
-Wind up the line counter-clockwise and under tension.
The spool splitter will separate the two halves of the
line(B30).
-Hook the last 15cm of the two ends of the line onto the
opposite lying line holders of the spool plate(B31).
-Thread the two ends of the line through the metal
eyelets in the line spool housing(B28).
-Press the spool plate into the line spool housing
-Pull the two line ends sharply to release them from the
line holders.
-Join the housing parts together again
-Cut the excess line to a length of around 13cm. this
will reduce the load on the engine when starting and
warming up.
-Refit the line spool.
CAUTION:when you operate the machine please
avoid the contact with curbs, stones and other hard
objects, because the cutting line may break and
the trim line automatic stops working. In this case,
proceed acc. Pts. 1-11 "Replacing the line spool /
cutting line".
Maintenance and Care
Gear Lubrication
Check the filling of lubrication grease every 25
hours of operation.
- Use an Allen key to remove the plug screw by
turning (B32).
- When you cannot see any grease on the screw,
fill approx. 5 g lubrication grease (DIY store) into
the gearbox case, and close the ller opening again.
Keep in mind that the gearbox case should never
be completely filled with lubrication grease.
