RISK OF INJURY
ATTENTION: For all work performed
on and for cutting tools, always wear
protective gloves.
To reduce the risk of unintentional start-
up, pull out the spark plug connector.
9.1 Cleaning
Use a damp cloth for cleaning the plastic parts. Do not
use detergents, solvents or sharp objects.
Depending on technical factors, during the course of the
work, wet grass and weeds grow around the drive axle
under the cutting guard.
Remove them, since otherwise the engine will be
overheated due to high friction.

equipment and shoulder strap, fuel leakage and
damaged parts such as cracks in the cutting assembly
(visual inspection).
