SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

General working instructions

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

•This section takes up the basic safety precautions for working with the edger.

•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 unfavour- able 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 circum- stances, 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.

5.Never put the machine down with the engine running unless you have good sight of it.

Basic working techniques

Safety instructions while working

• Always ensure you have a safe and firm foothold.

•Always hold the machine with both hands. Hold the machine of the right-hand side your the body.

•Make sure your hands and feet do not come into contact with the blade when the engine is running.

•When the engine is switched off, keep your hands and feet away from the blade until it has stopped.

•Always cut edges at full throttle.

•Always keep the blade close to the ground.

•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.

•Be especially careful when pulling the edger towards you during work.

•If heavy vibrations occur, stop the engine. Remove the spark plug cable from the spark plug. Check that the machine is not damaged. Repair any damage.

!WARNING!

Sometimes grass and stones can collect in the blade guard and blade. Always stop the engine when cleaning.

!WARNING!

Beware of thrown objects. Always wear eye protection. Never lean over the blade guard. Stones rubbish etc. can be thrown up into the eyes resulting in blindness or other serious injury.

Keep unauthorised persons at a distance. Children, animals, onlookers and helpers should be outside the safety zone of 15 meters (50 feet). Stop the machine immedi- ately if anyone approaches.

The bevel gear unit can get hot during use and may remain so for a while afterwards. There is a risk of slight burns if you touch it.
