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 cutting tool may
contact hidden wiring. Cutting tool 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 start the tool when the cutting tool is
tangled with cut grass.
24. Before starting the tool, be sure that the cut-
ting tool is not touching the ground and other
obstacles such as a tree.
25. Always keep your hands, face, and clothes
away from the cutting tool when it is rotating.
Failure to do so may cause personal injury.
26. Only use the cutting tool that are marked with
a speed equal or higher than the speed marked
on the tool.
27. 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.
Maintenance instructions
