Avoid Noise Problems
Check and follow the local regulations for sound levels and hours of operation for garden machinery.

Avoid using the Brushcutter late at night and/or early in the morning.
Safety when using the Brushcutter
When using the Brushcutter, grip the handles firmly with both hands, place your feet slightly apart so your
weight is distributed evenly across both legs, and always maintain a steady even posture while working.
Do not use on ladders or if the ground surface is slippery or uneven. Never attempt to cut directly overhead
or with one hand.
•
Maintain full engine speed when cutting.
•
Never allow other persons to come within the work area as doing so might expose them to
danger.
•
Keep work area clear of all persons, particularly small children and pets. Injury may result from
flying debris.
•
If grass or other objects get caught in the
Brushcutter during operation, always stop the engine
before removing the object.
•
Never touch the spark plug or plug HT cable while the engine is in operation,
doing so may result in an electrical shock.
•
Never touch the exhaust, spark plug, or any metallic parts while the engine is
in operation or immediately after shutting down the engine. These parts
reach high temperatures during operation and doing so could result in
serious burns.
•
When you finish cutting in one location and wish to continue work in another area, stop the
engine.
•
Always remove fuel from the fuel tank before transportation to prevent fuel spillage.
•
Never leave the
Brushcutter exposed to direct sunlight as this can heat the fuel tank and may
cause a discharge of fuel, and flood the engine.
•
Be careful not to hit the nylon cutting head against stones or the ground.
