Cutting the grass in a tight place or on a
slope
WARNING:
• When cutting the grass on a slope, be careful of
stones, grass and other foreign objects thrown from the
cutting head area.
• When cutting the grass on a slope, make sure that you
always keep a good and stable footing.
To ease the work in a tight place which restricts the height,
such as cutting the grass under an outdoor wood deck
and similars, push the lock button and then bend down
the cutting head so that the shaft is parallel to the ground
surface. Adjusting the cutting head angle properly in this
way helps you cut the grass on a slope.

and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
• The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
WARNING:
• The vibration emission during actual use of the power
tool can differ from the declared emission value
depending on the ways in which the tool is used.
• Be sure to identify safety measures to protect the
operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in
the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts
of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool
is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to
the trigger time).
