GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:
Overexposure to
vibration can lead to circulatory
damage or nerve damage in people
who have impaired circulation.
Contact your doctor if you experi-
ence symptoms of overexposure to
vibration. Such symptoms include
numbness, loss of feeling, tingling,
pricking, pain, loss of strength,
changes in skin color or condition.
These symptoms normally appear
in the fingers, hands or wrists. The
risk increases at low temperatures.
In countries that have a warm and dry
climate there is a significant risk of fire.
We therefore fit certain mufflers with a spark
arrestor mesh. Check whether the muffler
on your machine is fitted with this kind of
mesh.
For mufflers, it is very important that you
follow the instructions on checking, main-
taining, and servicing your machine.
Never use a machine that has a faulty
muffler.
Regularly check that the muffler is securely
attached to the machine.
Muffler
The muffler is designed to reduce the noise
level and to direct the exhaust gases away
from the operator.
CAUTION!
Muffler is fitted with a catalytic
convertic designed to reduce harmful ex-
haust gases.
Cutting attachment guard
This guard is intended to prevent loose
objects from being thrown towards the
operator. The guard also protects the
operator from accidental contact with the
cutting attachment.
Check that the guard is undamaged and not
cracked. Replace the guard if it has been
exposed to impact or is cracked.
Always use the recommended guard for the
cutting attachment you are using. See the
“Technical data” section.
Use of incorrectly wound trimmer line or an
incorrect cutting attachment increases the
level of vibration.
WARNING:
Never use a cutting
attachment without an approved
guard. See the section on “Technical
data”. If an incorrect or faulty guard
is fitted this can cause serious
personal injury.
Muffler bolts
WARNING:
Mufflers fitted with
catalytic converters get very hot
during use and remain so for some
time after stopping. This also applies
at idle speed. Contact can result in
burns to the skin. Remember the risk
of fire!
Stop switch
Make sure the engine stops when you push
and hold the stop switch.
