7. Remove sand, stones, nails etc. found within
the working range. Foreign particles may dam-
age the cutting tool.
8.
Should the cutting tool hit stones or other hard
objects, immediately switch off the motor and
inspect the cutting tool.
9.
Before commencing cutting, the cutting tool
must reach full working speed.
10. During operation always hold the tool with
both hands. Never hold the tool with one hand
during use. Always ensure a safe footing.
11. The cutting tool has to be equipped with the
guard. Never run the tool with damaged guards
or without guards in place!
12. All protective equipment such as guards
supplied with the tool must be used during
operation.
13. Except in case of emergency, never drop
or cast the tool to the ground or this may
severely damage the tool.
14. Never drag the tool on the ground when mov-
ing from place to place, the tool may become
damaged if moved in this manner.
15. Always remove the battery cartridge from the tool:
—
whenever leaving the tool unattended;
— before clearing a blockage;
— before checking, cleaning or working on
the tool;
— whenever the tool starts vibrating
abnormally;
— whenever transporting the tool.
16. Always ensure that the ventilation openings
are kept clear of debris.
17. Cutting elements continue to rotate after the
motor is switched off.
18.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
19. Take a rest to prevent loss of control caused
by fatigue. We recommend to take a 10 to
20-minute rest every hour.
20. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the cutter blade may
contact hidden wiring. Cutter blades contacting
a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool “live” and could give the operator an
electric shock.
21. Do not use the tool on steep slopes.
22. The shoulder harness must be used during
operation, if supplied with the tool.
23. Do not touch the gear case during and imme-
diately after the operation. The gear case
becomes hot during operation and can cause burn
injury.
24. Do not start the tool when the cutting tool is
tangled with cut grass.
25. Before starting the tool, be sure that the cut-
ting tool is not touching the ground and other
obstacles such as a tree.
26. Always keep your hands, face, and clothes
away from the cutting tool when it is rotating.
Failure to do so may cause personal injury.
27.
Only use the cutting tool that are marked with
a speed equal or higher than the speed marked
on the tool.
28.
Do not use the tool when there is a risk of
lightning.
29. When you use the tool on muddy ground, wet
slope, or slippery place, pay attention to your
footing.
30. Avoid working in poor environment where
increased user fatigue is expected.
31. Do not use the tool in bad weather where visi-
bility is limited. Failure to do so may cause fall or
incorrect operation due to low visibility.
32. Do not submerge the tool into a puddle.
33. Do not leave the tool unattended outdoors in
the rain.
34. When wet leaves or dirt adhere to the suc-
tion mouth (ventilation window) due to rain,
remove them.
35. Do not use the tool in the snow.
36. Check the cutting attachment frequently
during operation for cracks or damages.
Before the inspection, remove the battery
cartridge and wait until the cutting attachment
stops completely. Replace damaged cutting
attachment immediately, even if it has only
superficial cracks.
Kickback (blade thrust)
Kickback (blade thrust) may occur when the spin-
ning blade contacts an object that it can not imme-
diately cut. It can be violent enough to cause the
unit and/or operator to be propelled in any direc-
tion, and possibly lose control of the unit, resulting
in a serious injury. Kickback can occur without
warning if the blade snags, stalls or binds and is
more likely to occur in areas where it is difficult to
see the material being cut.
Kickback occurs particularly when applying the
blade segment between 12 and 2 o’clock to hard
objects, bushes and trees with a diameter of 3 cm
or larger.

To avoid kickback:
1. Apply the segment between 8 and 11 o’clock.
2. Swing the tool evenly in a half-circle from
right to left, like using a scythe. This allows the
proper segment of the blade to contact plants to
be cut.
3. Never apply the segment between 12 and 2
o’clock.
