SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Basic working techniques
• Always drop to idling speed after each working operation.
Longer periods running at full throttle without loading the
engine (that is without resistance, which the engine feels
from the cutting equipment when trimming) can lead to
serious engine damage.
Basic safety precautions
1.Observe your surroundings:
• To ensure that people, animals or other things cannot affect
your control of the machine.
• To ensure that the above mentioned do not come into
contact with the cutting equipment or objects that can be
thrown by the cutting equipment.
• NOTE! Never use a machine without the possibility of
calling for help in the event of an accident.
WARNING!
Sometimes branches, grass or wood can
get caught between the guard and cutting
equipment. Always stop the engine when
cleaning.
2.Avoid usage in
unfavourable weather
conditions. For example,
thick fog, heavy rain,
strong winds or extreme
cold, etc. To work in bad
weather conditions is
tiring and can create
dangerous circumstances,
e.g. slippery surfaces.
3.Make sure you can walk
and stand safely. Look out
for any obstacles with
unexpected movement
(roots, stones, branches,
pits, ditches, etc.). Take
great care when working
on sloping ground.
4.The engine should be switched off before moving. When
moving over longer distances and transporting the transport
guard should be used.
5.Never put the machine down with the engine running unless
you have good sight of it.
6.. Do not over-reach
7.Keep Cutting attachment below waist level.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• This section takes up the basic safety
precautions for working with the 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.
Grass trimming
using the trimmer
head and plastic
knifes
• Hold the trimmer head
just above the ground at
an angle. It is the end of
the cord that carries out
the work. Let the cord
work at its own pace. Do
not press the cord into the
area to be cut.
• The cord can easily
remove grass and weeds up
against walls, fences, trees
and borders, however, it
can also damage sensitive
bark on trees and bushes
and damage fence posts.
• Reduce the risk of
damaging plants by
shortening the cord to 10-
12 cm and reducing the
engine speed.
