Full details

The Bosch UniversalGrassCut 18V-26-500 is a cordless grass trimmer designed for homeowners seeking to maintain tidy lawns and garden edges, especially in hard-to-reach areas.

What type of battery system does it use?

Is this trimmer suitable for thick brush?

Troubleshooting

Trimmer does not start

Ensure the battery is fully charged and correctly inserted. Check that the safety switch is engaged.

Cutting line is not feeding

Check if the spool is empty or incorrectly installed. Refer to the manual for correct spool replacement. Ensure the semi-automatic mechanism is clear of debris.

Poor cutting performance

Verify the cutting line is adequately extended. Clean any grass or debris buildup around the cutting head and spool area. Ensure the battery is sufficiently charged.

Trimmer is vibrating excessively

Check that the spool is correctly seated and the cutting line is not tangled or unevenly wound. Ensure no debris is obstructing the cutting head.
