SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

General working instructions

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.

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.

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.

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.

!WARNING!

Sometimes branches, grass or wood can get caught between the guard and cutting equipment. Always stop the engine when cleaning.

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.
