General safety during usage
This trimmer is double insulated; therefore,
no earth wire is required. Always check that
the power supply corresponds to the voltage
on the rating plate.
• Before using the trimmer, check that your
cutting path is free from sticks, stones, wire
and any other dangerous objects that may
cause damage or be thrown from the trimmer.
• Only use the trimmer in the correct position,
with the cutting line near the ground. Never
switch the trimmer on in any other position.
• Switch on the trimmer only when hands and
feet are at a safe distance from the cutting line.
• Avoid any body contact with the cutting line
while the trimmer is running.
