5.9 Using the harness
Caution! Always use the harness when working
with the equipment (Fig. 2/Item 20). Always switch
off the equipment before you release the harness
– risk of injury!
•
Fit the harness (Fig. 9)
•
Hook the equipment to the harness (Fig. 10).
•
Adjust to the perfect working and cutting
position using the various harness adjusters
on the harness. The strap attachment (Fig.
11/Item 4) can be moved on the top part of
the long handle if required. To do so, slacken
the wing nut on the strap attachment, move
the strap attachment and then re-tighten the
wing nut.
•
To establish the optimum length of the
harness, you should then make a few
swinging movements without starting the
motor (Fig. 12).
The harness is fi tted with a quick-release
mechanism. Pull the red part of the harness (Fig.
13) if you need to remove the equipment quickly.
5.10 Installing the rechargeable batteries
Push the rechargeable batteries into the battery
mounts provided on the left and right on the
equipment (Fig. 2/Item 1). The battery will be
heard to click into place when it has been pushed
fully in (Fig. 1). To take out the battery, press the
pushlock button (Fig. 14/Item 30) and remove the
battery.
6. Operation
Please note that the statutory regulations
governing noise abatement may diff er from one
location to another.
Danger! The guard hood must be fi tted when
carrying out work.
6.1 Switching the equipment on and off ,
adjusting the speed (Fig. 15)
Switching on and setting the speed
Press the safety lock-off (3) and press the On/
Off switch (2) at the same time. Adjust the speed
during operation by pressing the On/Off switch to
a greater or lesser extent. The harder you push,
the higher the speed.

Switching off
Release the On/Off switch.
6.2 Practical tips
Practice all the work steps with the motor
switched off and without the rechargeable battery
before you start to use the equipment. Only use
the cutting line to mow grass that is dry. If the
grass is long, the grass must be cut shorter in
stages (Fig. 16).
Extending the cutting line (Fig. 17)
Danger! Do not use any kind of metal wire or
metal wire encased in plastic in the line spool.
This may cause serious injuries to the user.
The grass trimmer has a semi-automatic line
extension system (automatic jog line feed).
Each time you activate the semi-automatic
line extension system, the line is automatically
extended to ensure that you can cut your lawn
with the perfect cutting width at all times. To
extend the cutting line, run the motor 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. Please
note that the more often you activate the semi-
automatic line extension system, the more the line
will wear.
Note: If the line is too long when you use the
equipment for the fi rst time, the surplus end of it
will be cut by the blade on the guard hood. If the
line is too short when you start the equipment
for the fi rst time, press the knob on the line spool
and pull the line hard. When you then start the
machine for the fi rst time the line will be cut to the
perfect length automatically.
Using a brush or similar, carefully remove all
residual grass from the underside of the guard
hood at regular intervals.
Diff erent cutting methods
When the equipment is correctly assembled it
will cut weeds and long grass in places which are
diffi cult to access, e.g. along fences, walls and
foundations and also around trees. It can also
be used for "mowing" down vegetation so that a
garden can be better prepared or a certain area
cleared down to the soil.
Please note: Even if it is used carefully, cutting
around foundations, stone or concrete walls, etc.
will result in the line suff ering above normal wear.
