GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Cutting attachment guard

This guard is intended to prevent loose objects from being thrown towards the operator. The guard also protects the operator from accidental contact with the cutting attachment.

Check that the guard is undamaged and not cracked. Replace the guard if it has been exposed to impact or is cracked.

Always use the recommended guard for the cutting attachment you are using. See the “Technical data” section.

WARNING: Never use a cutting attachment without an approved guard. See the section on “Technical data”. If an incorrect or faulty guard is fitted this can cause serious personal injury.

Use of incorrectly wound trimmer line or an incorrect cutting attachment increases the level of vibration.

WARNING: Overexposure to vibration can lead to circulatory damage or nerve damage in people who have impaired circulation. Contact your doctor if you experi- ence symptoms of overexposure to vibration. Such symptoms include numbness, loss of feeling, tingling, pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes in skin color or condition. These symptoms normally appear in the fingers, hands or wrists. The risk increases at low temperatures.

Muffler

The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level and to direct the exhaust gases away from the operator.

CAUTION! Muffler is fitted with a catalytic convertic designed to reduce harmful ex- haust gases.

In countries that have a warm and dry climate there is a significant risk of fire.

We therefore fit certain mufflers with a spark arrestor mesh. Check whether the muffler on your machine is fitted with this kind of mesh.

Muffler bolts

For mufflers, it is very important that you follow the instructions on checking, main- taining, and servicing your machine.

Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.

Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the machine.

WARNING: Mufflers fitted with catalytic converters get very hot during use and remain so for some time after stopping. This also applies at idle speed. Contact can result in burns to the skin. Remember the risk of fire!

WARNING: The inside of the muffler contain chemicals that may be carcinogenic. Avoid contact with these elements in the event of a damaged muffler.

WARNING: Bear in mind that: Engine exhaust fumes contain car- bon monoxide, which can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. For this reason you should not start or run the machine indoors, or any- where that is poorly ventilated. The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot and may contain sparks which can start a fire. Never start the machine indoors or near com- bustible material!
