6. Muffler
The muffler is designed to
give the lowest possible noise
level and to direct the
engine‘s exhaust fumes away
from the operator. Muffler
fitted with catalytic converter
is also designed to reduce
harmful exhaust components.
In countries that have a
warm and dry climate the
risk of fire is obvious. We
have therefore fitted certain
mufflers with a spark arrest
screen. Make sure that your
muffler is fitted with this
kind of screen.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4. Vibration
damping system
Your machine is equipped
with a vibration damping
system, which is designed to
give as vibration-free and
comfortable use as possible.
The use of blunt or
incorrect cutting equipment
(the wrong type or
incorrectly sharpened, see
the section “Sharpening the
blade“ ) increases the level of
vibration.
The machine’s vibration
damping system reduces the
transfer of vibrations
between the engine unit/
cutting equipment and the
machine’s handle unit.
!
WARNING!
Over exposure to vibrations can result in
blood-vessel or nerve injury to persons
suffering with blood circulation problems.
Seek medical attention if you experience
physical symptoms that can be related to
over exposure to vibrations. Examples of
such symptoms are “numbness“, lack of
feeling, “tickling“, “pricking“, “pain“, lack of
or a reduction in normal strength, changes
in the colour of the skin or its surfaces.
These symptoms normally appear in the
fingers, hands or wrists.
5. Quick-release
There is an easily accessible,
quick-release catch fitted to
the chest as a safety
precaution in the event of a
fire in the engine or for any
other situation that requires
you to free yourself from the
machine and harness. See the
section “Adjusting the harness
and clearing saw“.
It is extremely important that the instructions for checking,
maintaining and servicing the muffler are followed. (see the
section “Control, maintenance and service of the machine‘s safety
equipment“).
WARNING!
The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot
and may contain sparks which can start a
fire. Never start the machine indoors or
near combustible material!
7. Cutting

cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
Therefore never start or run the machine
indoors.
• are hot and can contain sparks that can
cause fires. Never start the machine
indoors or close to inflammable material.
