SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Personal protective equipment

IMPORTANT! Whenever you use a clear- ing saw, brushcutter or trimmer you must wear personal protective equipment that is approved by the authorities. Personal protective equipment does not eliminate the risk of accidents, but it can reduce the effects of an injury in the event of an acci- dent. Ask your dealer for help when choosing protective equipment.

WARNING: Listen out for warn- ing signals or shouts when you are wearing hearing protection. Always remove your hearing protection as soon as the engine stops.

GLOVES

Gloves should be worn when necessary, e.g., when fitting cutting attachments.

HEARING PROTECTION

Wear hearing protection that provides adequate noise reduction.

EYE PROTECTION

The life span of the machine can be reduced and the risk of accidents can increase if machine maintenance is not carried out correctly and if service and/or repairs are not carried out professionally. If you need further information please contact your nearest ser- vicing dealer.
