2. Place the spool cover on the spool and press it firmly
down until the locking devices of the spool cover securely
click into place (Fig. 15).
Check length of nylon cutting line
1. Pull the line to the inner edge of the outer safety guard. If
the line is too short (i.e. less than 50 mm from the inside
edge of the safety guard), push down on the center of
the trimmer head and simultaneously pull the line a few
centimeters past the edge of the safety guard (Fig. 16).
To increase line length
NOTE: The grass trimmer comes with a full line spool. The line
wears down during work. To feed in new line:
1. Switch the machine on and press the head of the spool
firmly against the ground.
2. The line will automatically be released by centrifugal force.
The trimmer line will be cut to the right length by the blade
on the spool cover.

The Electric Grass Trimmer/Edger is designed to cut grass
and weeds under bushes, and on slopes and edges that
cannot be reached with the lawn mower. The trimmer must
be used outdoors only, at an ambient temperature between
0ºC and 45ºC.
