•
If anything jams in the blades while you are working,
switch off the engine and wait until it has stopped
completely before cleaning the blades. Disconnect the
spark plug cap from the spark plug.
•
Never put the machine down with the engine running
unless you have it in clear sight.
•
If the blades get stuck, they can be freed by sticking
the combination spanner into the gear housing.
•
Remove the plug.
•
Insert the combination spanner and turn it to release
the blades manually.
Safety instructions after completing work
•
The transport guard should always be fitted to the
cutting attachment when the machine is not in use.
•
Make sure the cutting attachment has stopped before
cleaning, carrying out repairs or an inspection.
Disconnect the spark plug cap from the spark plug.
•
Always wear heavy-duty gloves when repairing the
cutting attachment. This is extremely sharp and can
easily cause cuts.
•
Store the machine out of reach of children.
•
Use only original spare parts for repairs.
Basic working techniques
•
Work with a swinging action from the bottom upwards
when trimming sides.
•
Adjust the throttle setting to suit the load.
•
Hold the machine as close to your body as possible to
get the best balance.
•
Make sure that the tip does not touch the ground.
•
Do not rush the work, but work steadily until all the
branches have been cut back cleanly.
