SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

2. Stop switch

The stop switch should be used to stop the engine.

3.Cutting attachment guard

This guard is intended to prevent objects from being thrown towards the operator and to protect the operator from unintentionel contact with the cutting attachment.

!WARNING!

Do not attach any blade to the unit without proper installation of all required parts. Failure to use the proper parts can cause the blade to fly off and seriously injure the operator and/or bystanders.

Under no circumstances may the cutting equipment be used without an approved guard fitted. See the chapter “Technical data”. If the wrong guard or a defective guard is fitted this can cause serious personal injury.

4.Anti-vibration system

Your machine is equipped with an anti-vibration system that has been designed to give as vibration-free and comfortable usage as possible.

The use of incorrectly wound cord or blunt, incorrect cutting equipment (incorrect type or incorrectly sharpened, see section “Filing the blade”) increases the level of vibration.

The machine’s vibration damping system reduces the transfer of vibrations between the engine unit/ cutting equipment and the machine’s handle unit.

!WARNING!

Over exposure to vibrations can result in blood-vessel or nerve injury to persons suffering with blood circulation problems. Seek medical attention if you experience physical symptoms that can be related to over exposure to vibrations. Examples of such symptoms are “numbness“, lack of feeling, “tickling“, “pricking“, “pain“, lack of or a reduction in normal strength, changes in the colour of the skin or its surfaces. These symptoms normally appear in the fingers, hands or wrists.

5.Quick-release

There is an easily accessible, quick-release catch fitted to the chest as a safety precaution in the event of a fire in the engine or for any other situation that requires you to free yourself from the machine and harness. See the section “Adjusting the harness and clearing saw“.
