ARNING! This machine produces an
electromagnetic field during operation.

circumstances interfere with active or
passive medical implants. To reduce the

ARNING! Never allow children to use or
be in the vicinity of the machine. As the
machine is equipped with a spring-
loaded stop switch and can be started by
low speed and force on the starter
handle, even small children under some
circumstances can produce the force
necessary to start the machine. This can
mean a risk of serious personal injury.
Therefore remove the spark plug cap
when the machine is not under close
supervision.

ARNING! Faulty blades can increase
the risk of accidents.

TANT!
Incorrect or careless use of a hedge trimmer can turn it
into a dangerous tool that can cause serious or even
fatal injury. It is extremely important that you read and
understand the contents of this operator’s manual.
You must use approved personal protective equipment
whenever you use the machine. Personal protective
equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will
reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen.
Ask your dealer for help in choosing the right equipment.

protection as soon as the engine stops.
