4. Istruzioni per l'uso
4.1. Modalità di accensione/spegnimento e velocità
To power on the trimmer, press the power button on the control panel. The trimmer will start in the last used speed mode (1, 2, or 3). Press the speed mode button to cycle through low (1), medium (2), and high (3) speeds. For automatic speed adjustment based on load, press and hold the 'A' button to activate Automatic Torque Drive Technology (ADT) mode. In ADT mode, the trimmer will adjust its speed to optimize performance and battery life.
4.2. Funzione di rotazione inversa
If the trimmer line becomes tangled with grass or debris, a reverse rotation function can be used to clear it. With the trimmer powered on, briefly press the reverse button (often indicated by a circular arrow) to temporarily reverse the direction of the trimmer head. This function operates at low speed regardless of the selected forward speed mode. The trimmer will automatically stop after a short period in reverse mode.
4.3. Tecniche di rifinitura
Hold the trimmer firmly with both hands. Maintain a comfortable stance and keep the trimmer head parallel to the ground for even cutting. Use a sweeping motion to cut grass and weeds. Avoid hitting hard objects like rocks, fences, or concrete to prevent damage to the trimmer line and head.
