Use of included attachments & cutting tools
•
When the machine is switched off, first familiarize yourself with operation and guidance
when working with a petrol engine scythe for the first time.
•
Always hold the petrol engine scythe by the handles with both hands.
•
Hold the handle with your right hand and the handle with your left hand.
•
Attention:
The cutting tool will continue to rotate for a short time after the throttle has been
released.
•
Always ensure that the engine is idling properly so that the cutting tool does not rotate when
the throttle is not depressed. (see Maintenance)
•
If you always work at high speed, you will have the best cutting result.
•
Move the machine from left to right and back again with an even, curved movement. Then
cut the next path.
•
Attention:
Always return the machine to its starting position before cutting the next web!
•
When working, knock against a stone or tree, turn off the engine and pull out the spark plug
connector before inspecting the petrol engine brush for damage.
•
Attention:
Be particularly careful when working in difficult terrain and on slopes. Cut
gradually on tall grass to avoid overloading the machine. First cut the tips, then work your
way forward step by step.
•
Note:
When using metal cutting tools, there is always a risk of kickback if the tool hits a solid
obstacle (stones, trees, branches, etc.). The tool is thrown back against the direction of
rotation.
•
For wild growth and scrub, "dip" the hedge trimmer from above. This chops the material to
be cut.
•
Attention:
The blade runs after! Do not brake the blade with your hand!
•
Keep the knife / cutting unit of the motor scythe away from the feet.
Attention:
Proceed with particular caution when using this technique, because the greater
the distance between the cutting tool and the ground, the greater the risk that the material
to be cut and foreign objects will move to the side.
