About this deal

The Bosch ART 26 Combitrim is an electric AC grass trimmer with a power output of 450 W. It is designed for efficient and precise trimming of grass and weeds in outdoor spaces. Lay the device on its side and clean the protective cover from the inside. Remove compact grass residues with a wooden or plastic tool. Once you have the hang of it, it did quite an effective job and worked well around the top of the walls, edges of the steps and where the lawn meets the patio.

Lay the device on its side and clean the protective cover from the inside. Remove compact grass residues with a wooden or plastic piece. The final cutting position is for trimming around trees, plants and hard-to-reach places, such as under benches. For us, this feature came in useful for cutting around the fence posts at the bottom of our garden and a silver birch. The foot pedal sets the strimmer at 24 degrees and the wheel acts as a plant protector, shielding plants, whilst still achieving a close trim. If the cutting line continues to break, it may be twisted inside the spool or you may not be using the grass trimmer correctly. Make sure to wind the line properly and avoid touching stones, walls, or other hard objects. Regularly advance the line to use the full cutting width. Both warranty periods only apply to tools that are being used for domestic purposes and excludes batteries and chargers, which come with a 12 month warranty. During the warranty period the collection and return of your tool will be free of charge. How To Claim This powerful corded trimmer is ideal for anyone with a medium-large garden, or for dealing with heavily overgrown areas: its powerful 450W motor ensures an efficient cutting performance even when cutting in tough conditions, and the 26cm cutting width allows you to cover the ground effectively without compromising the accuracy of the cut.

More about this manual

This grass trimmer is not cordless, relying on an electric power source for operation. Weighing 3000 g, it is relatively lightweight, offering ease of use and maneuverability during trimming tasks. Note that only Bosch replacement trimming lines should be used, as they have improved cutting and feeding properties. About BoschSince the humble beginnings in Stuttgart, 1886, when Robert Bosch formed his own business manufacturing electronic components, the ‘Workshop for Precision Mechanics and Electrical Engineering' has become one of the biggest and best known manufacturers of domestic and industrial electrical products in the world. The willingness to improve on established designs started almost immediately and it is this ethos that has kept Bosch GmbH and Bosch lawnmowers ahead of their rivals ever since. This innovation is quite apparent in the present range of Bosch lawnmowers and garden products that include tools no other garden machinery manufacturer produces. Weighing approximately 3000 grams, this grass trimmer is lightweight and easy to maneuver, reducing strain and fatigue during extended use. The electric AC power source eliminates the need for batteries or fuel, ensuring consistent performance throughout the trimming session.

Overall, for me, once I had set the strimmer up and worked out what to do with the spool, the strimmer was very easy to use and I was impressed that I managed to trim almost the whole garden in one go, which took about 40 minutes. I recharged the battery fully and then completed the edging which took a further 10 minutes and there was plenty of battery left. Bosch claims that the battery is powerful enough to allow the strimmer to trim the edges of eight tennis courts in one charge. I think you would have to be well practiced at using the machine for this to be true! This product carries a full 3 year manufacturers warranty covering both faulty materials and faulty workmanship, it does not cover general wear and tear or damage, batteries, blades, bulbs and other consumables. In the unlikely event of a fault the item returned is subject to fair wear & tear and must not have been used beyond the scope of it's design. Please note that cordless products will normally have a shorter warranty of just 1 Year for the battery and or charger supplied. For lawn trimming, the strimmer must be set at the highest position (a 48-degree angle) and once set, it’s as easy as moving the strimmer from left to right. The wheel ensures that you do not get too close to any walls, trees or anything that protrudes out of your lawn (bird tables, washing lines etc). The wheel was useful in our garden as we have walls splitting the three levels, so I could use the wheel to guide the strimmer along the wall-edge and the strimmer did a great job of trimming the grass, right up to the wall. The problem you are experiencing with your Bosch ART 26 Combitrim grass trimmer, where the line systematically breaks, can have several possible causes. Here are some solutions to remedy this problem:This was fairly straightforward until it came to fitting the spool, as this is not listed as an initial step in the assembly instructions. It talks about operation, before it mentions mounting the spool and even then, it’s written as if there is already a spool in place.

If the extra-strong trimming line breaks, remove the spool as described above and insert the replacement trimming line into the spool according to the instructions. The IntelliFeed system for the line is also hugely beneficial, as it automatically rolls off the line as necessary, retaining the cutting diameter. This means that you don’t have to keep stopping to manually adjust the spool, which is both safer and more efficient. How does it rate online? With a cutting diameter of up to 260 millimeters, this grass trimmer can cover a large area in one sweep, reducing the time and effort required for trimming. The height adjustment feature allows for flexibility in cutting heights, with a range of up to 115 millimeters, ensuring an even cut across various types of terrain. If the device is overloaded or if the grass is too tall, this can prevent the grass trimmer from functioning properly. In this case, trim the lawn by making several successive cuts.Hang the cable on the integrated cable hook. Do NOT wrap the power and extension cord around the cable hook or protective cover.

The UniversalGrassCut has three different cutting positions and there is a foot pedal to switch between each. This is slightly flimsy and it’s not completely clear which position the strimmer is in without moving it through all three positions, to be sure. Note that only Bosch replacement cutting strings should be used as they have improved cutting and feeding properties. This cordless grass trimmer was tested by reluctant gardener Bethan Davis, a PR and events officer who lives in the Midlands. She has just had her second child and with two kids under the age of five, a pristine garden isn't always easy to maintain.
