WORKING TECHNIQUES

Grass clearing using a grass blade

SGrass blades and grass cutters must not be used on woody stems.

SA grass blade is used for all types of tall or coarse grass.

SThe 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.

SIf the blade is angled to the left when clear- ing grass, the grass will collect in a line, which makes it easier to collect, e.g. by

raking.

STry to work rhythmically. Stand firmly with your feet apart. Move forward after the re- turn stroke and stand firmly again.

SLet the support cup rest lightly against the

ground. It is used to protect the blade from hitting the ground.

SReduce the risk of material wrapping around the blade by following these in- structions:

S Always work at full throttle.

SAvoid the previously cut material during the return stroke.

SStop the engine, unclip the harness and place the machine on the ground before you start to collect the cut

material.

Grass trimming with a trimmer head

Trimming

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

SThe trimmer line 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.

SReduce the risk of damaging plants by shortening the trimmer line to 10--12 cm and

reducing the engine speed.

SWhen trimming you should use less than full throttle so that the trimmer line lasts longer and to reduce the wear on the trimmer head.

Clearing

SThe clearing technique removes all un- wanted vegetation. Keep the trimmer head just above the ground and tilt it. Let the end of the trimmer line strike the ground around trees, posts, statues and the like. CAUTION! This technique increases the wear on the trimmer line.

SThe trimmer line wears quicker and must be fed forward more often when working against stones, brick, concrete, metal fences, etc., than when coming into con- tact with trees and wooden fences.
