1. Intended/non-intended use
The petrol-driven engine hoe is used exclusively to loosen or dig up loamy
soil in the garden area, up to the hoe tool's maximum working depth. The
device may only be used in open garden areas. The user manual must be
read before each use. Sufficient protective equipment must be provided by
following the user manual and the warning pictograms attached to the
device. Only original spare parts specified by the manufacturer may be
used. The use of other components or attachments on the engine hoe will
lead to an expiration of the manufacturer's liability for personal injury and
material damage.
All other applications, places of use not mentioned above, and not observing
the user manual of the petrol-driven engine hoes are considered improper
use of the device. The user/operator and not the manufacturer is liable for
damages or injuries resulting from misuse.
Residual dangers
Even if the device is used correctly, there is always a particular residual risk
that cannot be excluded. Due to the use mentioned above and the device's
construction, the following potential hazards may be derived during use.
-
Impact of body parts or running over feet during transport
- Contact with the open hoe tool
- Contact with the running hoe tool
- Unforeseen movement of the device (getting caught in roots or similar)
- Throwing away stones or loam chunks
- Damage to the hearing, if not sufficient hearing protection is worn
- Inhalation of clay soil dust; exhaust gases from the combustion engine
- Contact with gasoline or lubricants on the skin
Warning:
The present existing vibration emission value during the
device's use may differ from the user manual's value or manufacturer. That
can be caused by the following influencing factors, which should be
considered before or during use:
-
If the device is used correctly
- Is the way of cutting the material or how it is processed correctly
- Is the device in good working condition
- The sharpness of the cutting tool or correct cutting tool
- Are the grips, if necessary, optional vibration grips mounted, and are
they fixed to the device body
