Extending the line
A
Your device is equipped with a dual line
auto-tap feature, i.e. the two strings are
extended when you tap the cutting head
on the ground.
1. Hold the device in operation over a
grassy area.
2. Tap the cutting head lightly on the
ground a few times. This causes the
line to lengthen.
The line cutter (19) inserted in
the extension (18) of the protec-

length.
If the line ends cannot be length-
ened:
• Turn off the device.
• Press the spool insert as far as it will go
and pull firmly on the end of the string.
If no line ends are visible:
• Replace the spool (see chapter on 'Re-
placing the spool').
Caution! Thread remnants
can be projected and lead to
injuries.
