• 

Ensure that the area being cut is free from strings, stones and debris.

• 

Do not cut against hard objects. This could cause injury to the operator and damage to the tool.

• 

Never use the tool without the guard. Never use the tool if the guard is damaged.

WARNING! 

The guard is vital for your and other people’s safety and for the tool’s operating efficiency.

• 

Do not try to stop the cutting device (nylon line) with your hands. Always let it come to a stop by itself.

WARNING! 

After switching off the tool, the cutting device continues to rotate for a few more seconds.

• 

Only use the original type of nylon line. Under no circumstances use metal line instead of nylon.

• 

Do not use the tool to cut grass which is not on the ground. For example, do not cut grass which is on 

walls or rocks.

• 

Do not switch on the tool in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces or in the presence of inflammable 

and/or explosive substances such as liquids, gasses and powders.

• 

Only cut during broad daylight or with adequate artificial light.

• 

Check that all grass cuttings and dirt have been removed from the ventilation vents.

• 

Do not cross roads or gravel paths with the tool still running.

• 

When the tool is not in use, store it in a dry place and out of reach of children.

• 

After use, disconnect the tool from the power supply and check for damage. If you have the slightest 

doubts, contact an authorized service center.

• 

Only use the tool according to the instructions given in this manual.

• 

Check regularly that the screws are tight.

• 

Do not try to repair the tool or access internal parts. Contact authorized service centers only.

• 

Do not get distracted and always concentrate on what you are doing. Use common sense. Never 

operate the tool when you are tired, sick or under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.

Additional Safety Rules for Line Trimmers (continued)

Safety Information

Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely that your power tool is faulty or that a part is 
missing. If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the parts have been replaced or the fault 
has been rectified. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury.
