SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 

General safety precautions

 

Starting

 

The complete clutch cover and shaft must be fitted before 
the machine is started, otherwise the clutch can come 
loose and cause personal injury.

Never start the machine indoors. Exhaust fumes can be 
dangerous if inhaled.

Observe your surroundings and make sure that there is no 
risk of people or animals coming into contact with the 
cutting equipment.

Place the machine on the ground, ensure the cutting 
attachment is clear of twigs and stones. Hold the body of 
the machine on the ground using your left hand 
(CAUTION! Not with your foot). Then grip the starter 
handle with your right hand and pull the starter cord. 

 

Fuel safety

 

Always use a fuel container with an anti-spill valve.

Never refuel the machine while the engine is running. 
Always stop the engine and let it cool for a few minutes 
before refuelling.

Always ensure there is adequate ventilation when 
handling fuel.

Move the machine at least 3 m from the refuelling point 
before starting it.

Never start the machine:

1

If you have spilt fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and allow 
remaining fuel to evaporate.

2

If you have spilt fuel on yourself or your clothes, change 
your clothes. Wash any part of your body that has come in 
contact with fuel. Use soap and water.

3

If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks 
from the fuel cap and fuel lines.

4

Avoid all skin contact with fuel. Fuel is a skin irritant and 
may even cause skin changes.

 

Transport and storage

 

Store and transport the machine and fuel so that there is 
no risk of any leakage or fumes coming into contact with 
sparks or naked flames, for example, from electrical 
machinery, electric motors, electrical relays/switches or 
boilers.

When storing and transporting fuel always use approved 
containers intended for this purpose.

When storing the machine for long periods the fuel tank 
must be emptied. Contact your local gas station to find out 
where to dispose of excess fuel.

The transport guard must always be fitted to the cutting 
attachment when the machine is being transported or in 
storage.

Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete 
service is carried out before long-term storage.

IMPORTANT!

The machine is only designed for cutting branches and 
twigs.

Never use the machine if you are tired, if you have drunk 
alcohol, or if you are taking medication that could affect your 
vision, your judgement or your co-ordination.

Wear personal protective equipment. See instructions 
under the heading Personal protective equipment.

Never use a machine that has been modified in any way 
from its original specification.

Never use the machine in extreme weather conditions such 
as severe cold, very hot and/or humid climates.

Never use a machine that is faulty. Carry out the checks, 
maintenance and service instructions described in this 
manual. Some maintenance and service measures must be 
carried out by trained and qualified specialists. See 
instructions under the heading Maintenance.

All covers and guards must be fitted before starting. Make 
sure the spark plug cap and HT lead are not damaged. 
Otherwise you could get an electric shock.

!

 

WARNING! Faulty blades can increase the 
risk of accidents.

!

 

WARNING! Take care when handling fuel. 
Bear in mind the risk of fire, explosion and 
inhaling fumes.
