GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

General rules

Only use cutting attachments with the guards we recommend! See the chapter on Technical data.

Keep the teeth of the blade correctly sharpened! Follow our instructions and use the recommended ﬁle gauge. An incorrectly sharpened or damaged blade increases the risk of accidents.

Keep the correct setting on the saw blade! Follow our instructions and use the recommended setting tool. An incorrectly set saw blade increases the risk of jamming and blade thrust, and damage to the saw blade.

Check the cutting attachment for damage or cracks. A damaged cutting attachment should always be replaced.

Sharpening grass cutters and grass blades

•See the cutting attachment packaging for correct sharpening instructions. Sharpen blades and cutters using a single-cut ﬂat ﬁle.

•Sharpen all edges equally to maintain the balance of the blade.

WARNING! Always discard a blade that is

! bent, twisted, cracked, broken or damaged in any other way. Never attempt to straighten a twisted blade so that it can be reused. Only use original blades of the speciﬁed type.

Sharpening the saw blade

•See the cutting attachment packaging for correct sharpening instructions.

A correctly sharpened blade is essential for working efﬁciently and to avoid unnecessary wear to the blade and clearing saw.

•Make sure that the blade is well supported when you ﬁle it. Use a 5.5 mm round ﬁle with a ﬁle holder.
