WORKING TECHNIQUES
Grass clearing using a grass blade
Clearing
� The clearing technique removes all unwanted vegetation. Keep the trimmer head just above the ground and tilt it. Let the end of the cord strike the ground around trees, posts, statues and the like. CAUTION! This technique increases the wear on the cord.

� � �

Grass blades and grass cutters must not be used on woody stems. A grass blade is used for all types of tall or coarse grass. The grass is cut down with a sideways, swinging movement, where the movement from right-to-left is the clearing stroke and the movement from left-to-right is the return stroke. Let the left-hand side of the blade (between 8 and 12 o�clock) do the cutting. �

The cord wears quicker and must be fed forward more often when working against stones, brick, concrete, metal fences, etc., than when coming into contact with trees and wooden fences. When trimming and clearing you should use less than full throttle so that the cord lasts longer and to reduce the wear on the trimmer head.

If the blade is angled to the left when clearing grass, the grass will collect in a line, which makes it easier to collect, e.g. by raking. Try to work rhythmically. Stand �rmly with your feet apart. Move forward after the return stroke and stand �rmly again. Let the support cup rest lightly against the ground. It is used to protect the blade from hitting the ground. Reduce the risk of material wrapping around the blade by following these instructions:

Cutting

The trimmer is ideal for cutting grass that is dif�cult to reach using a normal lawn mower. Keep the cord parallel to the ground when cutting. Avoid pressing the trimmer head against the ground as this can ruin the lawn and damage the tool.

Always work at full throttle. Avoid the previously cut material during the return stroke. � Stop the engine, unclip the harness and place the machine on the ground before you start to collect the cut material. � Do not allow the trimmer head to constantly come into contact with the ground during normal cutting. Constant contact of this type can cause damage and wear to the trimmer head.

Grass trimming with a trimmer head

Sweeping
� The fan effect of the rotating cord can be used for quick and easy clearing up. Hold the cord parallel to and above the area to be swept and move the tool to and fro.

Trimming
� Hold the trimmer head just above the ground at an angle. It is the end of the cord that does the work. Let the cord work at its own pace. Never press the cord into the area to be cut.

�

When cutting and sweeping you should use full throttle to obtain the best results.

�

The cord can easily remove grass and weeds up against walls, fences, trees and borders, however it can also damage sensitive bark on trees and bushes, and damage fence posts. Reduce the risk of damaging plants by shortening the cord to 10-12 cm and reducing the engine speed.
