breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition
that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that
is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced
by an authorized service center unless indicated
elsewhere in this manual.
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all
objects such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or line
that can be thrown or become entangled in the cutting
attachment. Make sure that other persons and pets are
at least 15m away.

is generally a warning of trouble. A loose head may
vibrate, crack, break or come off the trimmer, which may
result in serious or fatal injury. Make sure that the cutting
attachment is properly fixed in position. If the head
loosens after fixing it in position, replace it immediately.
Never use a trimmer with a loose cutting attachment.
Replace a cracked, damaged or worn-out cutting head
immediately, even if damage is limited to superficial
cracks. Such attachments may shatter at high speed
and cause serious or fatal injury.

during operation, or immediately if there is a noticeable
change in cutting behavior.
