• Avoid all usage which you consider to be beyond
your capability.
• Do not use the product unless you are able to call for
help in the event of an accident.
• Using an incorrect cutting attachment or an
incorrectly sharpened blade increases the risk of
blade thrust.
• Products fitted with saw blades or grass blades can
be thrown violently to the side when the blade comes
into contact with a fixed object. This is called blade
thrust. A blade thrust can be violent enough to cause
the product and/or operator to be propelled in any
direction, and possibly lose control of the product.
Blade thrust can occur without warning if the product
snags, stalls or binds. Blade thrust is more likely to
occur in areas where it is difficult to see the material
being cut.
• Avoid cutting with the area of the blade between the
12 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions. Because of the
speed of rotation of the blade, blade thrust can occur
if you attempt to cut thick stems with this area of the
blade.
• Mufflers fitted with catalytic converters get very hot
during use and remain so for some time after
stopping. This also applies at idle speed. Contact
can result in burns to the skin. Remember the risk of
fire.
• Only use cutting attachments with the guards we
recommend. Refer to
To do a check of the throttle trigger lockout

1. Push the throttle trigger lockout (A). Make sure that
the throttle trigger (B) is released.
