General working instructions
IMPORTANT!
This section takes up the basic safety precautions for
working with a trimmer.
If you encounter a situation where you are uncertain how
to proceed you should ask an expert. Contact your dealer
or your service workshop.
Avoid all usage which you consider to be beyond your
capability.
You must understand the difference between forestry
clearing, grass clearing and grass trimming before use.
Basic safety rules
1
Look around you:
•
To ensure that people, animals or other things cannot
affect your control of the machine.
•
To ensure that people, animals, etc., do not come into
contact with the cutting attachment or loose objects that
are thrown out by the cutting attachment.
•
CAUTION! Do not use the machine unless you are able
to call for help in the event of an accident.
2
Inspect the working area. Remove all loose objects, such
as stones, broken glass, nails, steel wire, string, etc. that
could be thrown out or become wrapped around the
cutting attachment.
3
Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as dense
fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc. Working in
bad weather is tiring and often brings added risks, such
as icy ground, unpredictable felling direction, etc.
4
Make sure you can move and stand safely. Check the
area around you for possible obstacles (roots, rocks,
branches, ditches, etc.) in case you have to move
suddenly. Take great care when working on sloping
ground.
5
Keep a good balance and a firm foothold.

WORKING TECHNIQUES
6
Always hold the machine with both hands. Hold the
machine on the right side of your body.
7
Keep the cutting attachment below waist level.
8
The engine must be switched off before moving.
9
Never put the machine down with the engine running
unless you have it in clear sight.
WARNING! Neither the operator of the
!
machine nor anyone else may attempt to
remove the cut material while the engine is
running or the cutting equipment is
rotating, as this can result in serious injury.
Stop the engine and cutting equipment
before you remove material that has wound
around the blade shaft as otherwise there is
a risk of injury. The bevel gear can get hot
during use and may remain so for a while
afterwards. You could get burnt if you touch
it.
WARNING! Watch out for thrown objects.
!
Always wear approved eye protection.
Never lean over the cutting attachment
guard. Stones, rubbish, etc. can be thrown
up into the eyes causing blindness or
serious injury.
Keep unauthorised persons at a distance.
Children, animals, onlookers and helpers
should be kept outside the safety zone of
15 m. Stop the machine immediately if
anyone approaches. Never swing the
machine around without first checking
behind you to make sure no-one is within
the safety zone.
