Never hold the Hedgetrimmer in a way in which the blades are pointing towards someone else.
Never allow the blades to come into contact with your body.

close proximity with the cutting head.
Always wear thick work gloves when adjusting the Hedgetrimmer.
Safe Handling of Fuel
The engine of the Hedgetrimmer is designed to run on a two stroke oil/fuel mixture.
This fuel is highly flammable; never store cans of fuel or refill the fuel tank in any place where
there is a source of heat or fire, which might ignite the fuel.
Do not smoke whilst operating the Hedgetrimmer or refilling, keep lit cigarettes away from the
Hedgetrimmer at all times.
When refilling the fuel tank always stop the engine first and carefully make sure that there are no
sparks or naked flames anywhere nearby before refuelling.
If any fuel spillage occurs during refuelling, use a dry rag to wipe any fuel which has been spilled
onto the Hedgetrimmer before starting the engine.
After refuelling, screw the fuel cap back tightly onto the fuel tank and carry the Hedgetrimmer to a
spot 5 metres or more away from where it was refuelled before starting the engine.
