For Your Safety
Warning! Switch off, remove plug from mains
before adjusting, cleaning or if cable is cut,
damaged or entangled.
The cutting line continues to rotate for a few
seconds after the trimmer is switched off.
Caution – do not touch rotating cutting line.
Electrical Safety
Your machine is double insulated for safety and requires no earth connection. The operating voltage is
230 V AC, 50 Hz (for non-EU countries 220 V,
240 V as applicable). Only use approved extension
cables. Contact your Bosch Service Center for details.
It is recommended for increased electrical safety to
use a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a tripping
current of not more than 30 mA. Always check your
RCD every time you use it.
C WARNING: For safety, it is essential that the
mains plug 9 attached to the machine is fitted to the
power supply cable 12.
The couplings of connection leads must be protected against splashes and the coupling sockets on
the leads must be made of rubber or coated with rubber.
Fixing means for the connection leads must be used.
The connection lead must be inspected for signs of
damage at regular intervals and may only be used if
in perfect condition.

F 016 L70 659.book Seite 3 Freitag, 27. November 2009 10:42 10
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
a Bosch Service Centre.
Extension cords/leads should only be used if they
comply with H05VV-F or H05RN-F types.
Products sold in GB only: Your machine is fitted with
an approved 13 A (BS 1363/A) electric plug and is
protected by a 13 A fuse (ASTA Approved to
BS 1362).
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted
in its place by an authorized customer service agent.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a
possible shock hazard and should never be inserted
into a 13 A socket elsewhere.
D Cutting Grass
Move the trimmer left and right, keeping it well away
from the body. Tilt the front of the trimmer head to
cut shorter grass.
The trimmer can efficiently cut grass up to a height
of 15 cm. Cut taller grass in stages.
Cutting Around Trees and Bushes
Carefully cut around trees and bushes so that they
do not come into contact with the cutting line.
Plants can die if you damage the bark.
For better control use guide handle 3.
Feeding the Line
Assembly
Feed button 13 may become hot.
Do not connect the machine to the mains
socket before it is completely assembled.
A Assemble trimmer shaft
Push the upper shaft 4 and lower shaft 5 together
until a click can be heard.
Note: Once the upper and lower shaft is assembled
it can not be disassembled.
Ensure internal cable is not trapped or twisted.
B Mounting the Cutting Guard
Place the cutting guard 8 on the trimmer head 6.
➊ Hook the guard onto trimmer head and push until
secure fitting.
➋ Push rear of guard until secure (click).
Maintenance
Cutting and Edging
Remove stones, loose pieces of wood and
other objects from the cutting area.
The cutting line continues to rotate for a few seconds after the trimmer is switched off. Allow the
motor/cutting line to stop rotating before switching “on” again.
Do not rapidly switch off and on.
Switching On and Off
Press switch 1 and hold depressed. Release
switch 1 for switching off.
14 • F 016 L70 659 • 09.11
The rotating line can wear or break. You will notice
when the motor runs without load and no grass is
cut.
E While operating the trimmer press the ground or
a solid surface, then release (necessary pressure
approx. 3 kg).
This action will allow the feed button 13 to release
the line out. The spool will release approx. 4 cm of
line per action.
When the line breaks off completely, feed twice to
regain the full cutting circle.
F If the line is exceeding the maximum cutting circle it will be cut by the blade 18 integrated in the cutting guard 8.
Stop and remove plug from the power supply.
Note: To ensure long and reliable service, carry out
the following maintenance regularly.
Regularly check for obvious defects such as loose
fixings, and worn or damaged components.
Check that covers and guards are undamaged and
correctly fitted. Carry out necessary maintenance or
repairs before using.
If the trimmer should happen to fail despite the care
taken in manufacture and testing, repair should be
carried out by an authorized customer service agent
for Bosch garden products.
For all correspondence and spare parts orders, always include the 10-digit part number (TYP) from
the nameplate of the machine!

Spool Maintenance
Stop and remove plug from the power supply.
F Replacing the Line Spool
Hold the spool plate 16 in position.
Turn the spool cover 14 counter-clockwise and remove.
Take the empty spool 17 out from the spool cover.
Thread the line of the new/refilled spool through the
eyehole 15 and place the spool in the spool
cover 14.
Pull approx. 9 cm of line out of the spool.
Place spool with cover 14 on the spool plate in the
correct position (bayonet fastening), press down and
turn fully clockwise (click).
G Refilling Line
Take out the spool 17 as described above.
Press the cover ring 20 together, push it forward and
detach over the smaller diameter of the spool.
Cut off approx. 8 m line from the refill roll. Press one
end into the notch of the spool so that it stands out
approx. 4 mm.
Wind on the line tightly and in orderly layers in arrow
direction.
Thread the line’s end through the slot 19 in the cover
ring 20 from the inside.
Keep the line tight and slide the cover ring 20 over
the smaller diameter of the spool.
Build in the spool as described above.
Note: Only use Bosch replacement line. It has been
developed specially for improved cutting and feeding performance. The use of other line will lead to a
deterioration in performance.
After Trimming/Storage
Stop and remove plug from the power supply.
Clean the exterior of the machine thoroughly using a
soft brush and cloth. Do not use water, solvents or
polishes. Remove all grass and debris, especially
from the ventilation slots 7.
Turn the machine on its side and clean the cutting
guard 8 inside. If grass cuttings are compacted, remove with a wooden or plastic implement.
Hang the cable on the hook 10 provided. DO NOT
wrap/loop the supply/extension cable around the
hook and the guard together – this will cause the cable to be in contact with the guard blade which can
damage the cable. ONLY hang the cable on the
hook provided.
