trimmer or work procedures not suitable for the work
performed. Loss of hedge trimmer control can cause
serious injury. The following precautions must be taken
to avoid backlash:
- Place and hold the rotary accessory in the correct
position and tighten it securely;
- Do not position your body in the area to which the tool
will be used afterwards in case of a backlash;
When the rotary accessory locks, immediately turn the
tool off.

Make sure that the ventilation grids are not
obstructed during operation. Do not insert any
objects into the ventilation grids;
▪
The blade and hedge trimmer may become too
hot during operation. Avoid touching them, they
may cause burns. Wear protective gloves when
handling the blade;
