1) Make sure all operators study this manual
carefully before using the trimmer; only use this
machine for usage specifically mentioned in
this manual.
Never allow children to use the trimmer.
2) When working with the trimmer wear suitable
clothes: a) Close fitting protective clothes ( do
not wear short trousers or loose clothes). b)
Safety shoes (do not wear sandals and do not
work barefoot). c) Heavy-duty gloves. d) Safety
face shield or goggles. Ensure you peel off the
protective films, if existing, from the see -
through plastic. e) Ear protection. f) Head
protection when using circular saw blades.
Make sure you know how to stop the engine in
an emergency (see the section STARTING AND
STOPPING ENGINE). Never use the trimmer
when tired, physically indisposed or under the
effect of alcohol, certain medicines or other
drugs. Be careful of the rotating cutting
attachment and hot surfaces on the unit.
3) Prolonged use of this product or other
machines exposing the operator to vibration
may produce Whitefinger’s disease (Raynaud’s
Phenomenon). This may reduce the hands’
ability to feel and regulate temperature and
may produce general numbness. Continual or
regular users should therefore monitor closely
the condition of their hands or fingers. If any of
the symptoms appear, seek immediate medical
advice. Always hold the trimmer firmly with
both hands. When working
maintain a firm
foothold. The trimmer must
be used exclusively
as
recommended (see
section SAFETY
USAGE).
4) Do not carry the trimmer while the engine is
running even for short distances; switch off the
engine and carry the unit with the cutting head
behind you. When carrying the trimmer in a
vehicle, secure it to avoid fuel leakage. Always
empty the fuel tank before transporting the unit.
ATTENTION: For your safety the blade must
be kept at all times in its proper case during
transport and storage.
Start the trimmer on a flat surface. When
starting the unit, ensure you have a firm
footing. Make sure the blade or the nylon string
head does not touch the ground or any obstacle.
5) PRECAUTIONS AGAINST FIRE: do not operate
the trimmer near fire or spilled petrol. Do not
run the engine in closed or poorly ventilated
areas. EXHAUST GASES ARE POISONOUS
WHEN INHALED, THEY CAN CAUSE
SUFFOCATION AND DEATH.
After refuelling always wipe off any spilled fuel.
Do not smoke during this operation. Start the
engine far away from the refuelling area and
from fuel containers (minimum distance 3
meters). Do not refuel while the engine is still
running.
6) Keep people and animals away from working
area (minimum distance 15 meters). If
somebody should approach you, turn the
engine off and stop the blade or the rotating
head (see chapter STARTING AND
STOPPING THE ENGINE) as during operation
the blade or the nylon string head might project
grass, grit, or other debris. The blade is sharp,
be careful even if handling it when the engine is
off.
Wear heavy-duty gloves. Turn the engine off
and wait for rotating parts to stop completely
before working on the machine or before
touching the blade or the string head above all
to remove possible entangled material.
DO NOT USE THE TRIMMER AT ALL IF THE
SPECIFIED SAFETY GUARD IS NOT FIRMLY
ATTACHED (see sections SAFETY USAGE and
BLADES AND NYLON STRING HEAD
ASSEMBLY).
Pay careful attention to safety
recommendations as you might put your life or
somebody else’s in danger as a result of: a)
possible contact with cutting or rotating parts.
b) possibility of projection of various objects.
WARNING: do not start engine if it is not
attached to the shaft as the clutch might
disintegrate. For units equipped with a clutch,
be sure the cutting attachment stops turning
when the engine idles.
