Hints for optimum use
General

grass.
Trimming
u Hold the tool as shown in g. K.
u Gently swing the trimmer from side to side.
u When cutting long grass, work in stages from the top. Take
small cuts.
u Keep the tool away from hard objects and delicate plants.
u Cutting line will wear faster and require more feeding if
the cutting is done along pavements or other abrasive
surfaces or heavier weeds are being cut.
u If the tool starts running slowly, reduce the load.
Edging
Optimum cutting results are achieved on edges deeper than
50 mm.
u Do not use the tool to create edges. To create edges, use
an edging spade.
u Guide the tool on its wheel as shown in g. L.
