5. GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
5.1 Working area
-
Keep working area clean and well lit. Untidy and dark areas can lead to accidents.
-
Do not operate tools in potentially explosive surroundings, for example, in the presence of inflammable
liquids, gases or dust. Tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
-
Keep children and bystanders at a distance when operating a tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control of it.
5.2 Personal safety
-
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a tool. Do not use a tool
when you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention when
operating a tool may result in serious personal injury.
-
Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Using safety equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, a hard hat, or hearing protection whenever it is needed will reduce the risk of personal injury.
-
Remove any adjusting keys or spanners before turning on the tool. A spanner or key left attached to a
rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.
-
Do not reach out too far. Keep your feet firmly on the ground at all times. This will enable you retain control
over the tool in unexpected situations.
-
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from the
tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can become entangled in the moving parts.
-
Inspect the entire machine for loose parts (nuts, bolts, screws, etc.) and any damage. Repair or replace as
necessary before using the machine.
-
DO NOT USE any attachment with this power head other than the ones recommended by our company.
Serious injury to the operator or bystanders could result as well as damage to the machine.
-
The blade guard and front handle guard is very important to the machine. It must be screwed up on the
machine before the initial use. These guards must always be fixed when operating the machine. Check
these guards before each use. If any damage (crack, break, etc.) on the guard, contact with your dealer for
replacing it.
-
If use of non-conformant replacement guards, or remove or modify these guards could result in serious
injury to the operator or bystanders.
-
Always use proper handles and shoulder strap when cutting.
-
Do not use the unit if it is damaged or poorly adjusted. Never remove the machine’s guard. Serious injury
to the operator or bystanders could result as well as damage to the machine.
-
Inspect the area to be cut and remove all debris that could become entangled in the nylon cutting head.
Also remove any objects that the unit may throw during cutting.
-
Never leave the machine unattended.
-
Do not use this unit for any job other than those for which it is intended as described in this manual.
-
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not run the unit while standing on a
ladder or on any other unstable footing location. Appropriately use the harness provided when operating
the machine.
