To respect people and the environment:
– Try not to cause any disturbance.
– Scrupulously comply with local regulations
and provisions for the disposal of waste
materials after sawing.
– Scrupulously comply with local regulations
and provisions for the disposal of oils,
petrol, damaged parts or any elements
which have a strong impact on the environ-
ment.
Prolonged exposure to
vibrations can cause injuries and neurovas-
cular disorders (also called “Renaud’s syn-
drome” or “white hand”), especially to people
suffering from circulation disorders. The
symptoms can regard the hands, wrists and
fingers and are shown through loss of sensi-
tivity, torpor, itching, pain and discolouring of
or structural changes to the skin. These
effects can be worsened by low ambient tem-
peratures and/or by gripping the handgrips
excessively tightly. If the symptoms occur,
the length of time the machine is used must
be reduced and a doctor consulted.
Always wear suitable
clothing when using the machine. Your deal-
er can provide you with all the information on
the most suitable accident-prevention
devices to guarantee your safety.
USING THE WEBBING (Fig. 13)
The machine must always
be used connected to the webbing worn cor-
rectly. Frequently check the efficiency of the
quick release mechanism used to quickly free
the machine from the belts in case of danger.
The webbing must be put on before connecting
the machine to the special coupling and the
belts must be adjusted to suit the operator’s
height and stature.
If the machine has more than one coupling hole,
use the most favourable point for keeping the
machine balanced when working.

WARNING!
Always use webbing suited to the weight of the
machine and the cutting device used
– the single or double belt models can be used
for machines weighing less than 7.5 kg fit-
ted with the cutting line head or 3 or 4-point
blades;
– the double belt model must be used
for
machines weighing more than 7.5 kg fitted
with the saw blade
(if permitted).
•
Single belt “MONO” models
The belt (1) must go over the left shoulder
towards the right hip.
•
Double belt models
The belt (2) must be worn with:
– the padded part and snap-hook coupling on
the right;
– the release in front;
– the belt cross-over on the operator’s back.
The belts must be tensioned so that the load is
evenly distributed on the shoulders.
USING THE MACHINE
When working, the
machine must always be firmly held in both
hands, keeping the power unit on the right of
the body and the cutting group below the line
of the belt.
Stop the engine immedi-
ately if the blade stops during sawing. Always
beware of a kickback, which could occur if a
blade encounters a solid object (logs, roots,
branches, stones, etc.). Do not touch the
ground with the blade. Kickbacks cause
blade recoils that are difficult to control, so as
to cause loss of control of the machine, com-
promise operator safety and cause damage
to the machine itself.
Before tackling a mowing job for the first time it
is advisable to gain the necessary familiarity with
the machine and the most suitable cutting tech-
