GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Trimmer head
WARNING! Always use recommended
! trimmer line. See technical data. Failure to follow this instruction may cause personal injury.
IMPORTANT!
Always ensure the trimmer line is wound tightly and evenly around the drum, otherwise the machine will generate harmful vibration.
•Only use the recommended trimmer heads and trimmer lines. These have been tested by the manufacturer to suit a particular motor size. This is especially important when a fully automatic trimmer head is used. Only use the recommended cutting attachment. See the chapter on Technical data.
•Smaller machines generally require small trimmer heads and vice versa. This is because when clearing using a line, the motor must throw out the line radially from the trimmer head and overcome the resistance of the grass being cleared.
•The length of the line is also important. A longer cord requires greater motor power than a shorter line of the same diameter.
•Make sure that the cutters on the trimmer guard are intact. These are used to cut the line to the correct length. Different line lengths can result in unnecessary vibrations. Tap the trimmer head to get correct lengths on the line.
•To increase the life of the line it can be soaked in water for a couple of days. This will make the line tougher so that it lasts longer.
