SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Vibration damping system
Your machine is equipped with a vibration damping system
that is designed to minimize vibration and make operation
easier.
Use of incorrectly wound cord or an incorrect cutting
attachment increases the level of vibration.
Mufer
The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum and
to direct exhaust fumes away from the user.
A muffler fitted with a catalytic converter is also designed to
reduce harmful exhaust gases.
In countries that have a warm and dry climate there is a
significant risk of fire. We therefore fit certain mufflers with a
spark arrestor mesh. Check whether the muffler on your
machine is fitted with this kind of mesh.
For mufflers it is very important that you follow the instructions
on checking, maintaining and servicing your machine. See
instructions under the heading Checking, maintaining and
servicing the machine’s safety equipment.
Cutting equipment
A trimmer head is intended for trimming grass.
Locking nut
A locking nut is used to secure some types of cutting
attachment.
!
WARNING! Never use a cutting attachment
without an approved guard. See the chapter
on Technical data. If an incorrect or faulty
guard is tted this can cause serious
personal injury.
!
WARNING! Overexposure to vibration can
lead to circulatory damage or nerve damage
in people who have impaired circulation.
Contact your doctor if you experience
symptoms of overexposure to vibration.
Such symptoms include numbness, loss of
feeling, tingling, pricking, pain, loss of
strength, changes in skin colour or
condition. These symptoms normally appear
in the ngers, hands or wrists. The risk
increases at low temperatures.
!
WARNING! Mufers tted 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
re!
!
WARNING! The inside of the mufer contain
chemicals that may be carcinogenic. Avoid
contact with these elements in the event of a
damaged mufer.
!
WARNING! Bear in mind that:
Engine exhaust fumes contain carbon
monoxide, which can cause carbon
monoxide poisoning. For this reason you
should not start or run the machine indoors,
or anywhere that is poorly ventilated.
The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot
and may contain sparks which can start a
re. Never start the machine indoors or near
combustible material!
