Remove the power pack from the device:
- Whenever you leave the device unattended.

vice for damage.

atmospheres containing flammable liquids,
gases or dusts.
The trimmer may create sparks,
which could ignite the dust or vapours.

Never leave the trimmer unattended during
breaks and store it in a secure location.

Adopt a normal posture. Ensure you are
standing securely and that you maintain your
