Refueling
- Before refueling, stop the engine.
- Never refuel near naked flames
- Do not smoke when refueling.
- Always allow sufficient time for the engine to cool down before refueling.
- Take care not to let your skin come into contact with petroleum products. Do not
inhale gasoline fumes and always wear protective gloves when refueling.
Change and clean protective wear at regular intervals.
- Take extra care to avoid spilling gasoline and oil in order to avoid contamination
of the ground (environmental protection). If gasoline or oil has been spilled onto
the hedge trimmer, immediately wipe the surface of the hedge trimmer with a rag.
To avoid spontaneous combustion, allow wet rags to dry sufficiently before
discarding them into an appropriate, covered container.
- Make sure that no fuel comes in contact with your clothing. Change fuel-
contaminated clothing immediately (fire hazard).
- Close the fuel tank and tighten the fuel tank cap securely. To restart the engine,
transfer the pole hedge trimmer to a location at least 3 meters away from the
place of refueling.
- Check the fuel tank cap at regular intervals to make sure that the cap is securely
fastened.
- Never refuel the machine in an enclosed room. Fuel vapors accumulate at
ground level (risk of explosion).
- Store fuel in appropriate containers only, and make sure that stored fuel is out of
the reach of children.
- To prevent damage to fuel lines and engine parts, avoid using gasoline that
contains ethanol or methanol (types of alcohol) when mixing gasoline with two-
stroke engine oil.
Operation
- During operation, hold the pole hedge trimmer with both hands at all times.
- Only use the pole hedge trimmer in good light and visibility conditions. Beware of
slippery and wet areas (ice and snow) during the cold season (danger of
slipping), and always ensure secure footing.
- Never use the pole hedge trimmer while standing on an unstable surface or a
steep slope.
- Never use the pole hedge trimmer while standing on a ladder.
- Never climb a tree to use the pole hedge trimmer from the tree.
- To avoid stumbling or falling over objects, never walk backwards when working
with the pole hedge trimmer.
- Always stop the engine before cleaning or servicing the machine. Also, refrain
from replacing parts before the engine has been stopped.
- Do not operate the pole hedge trimmer if the cutting unit is damaged or worn.
Maintenance instructions
- Always do your utmost to keep pollution and noise emissions as low as possible
when operating the pole hedge trimmer. Pay special attention to correct
adjustment of the carburetor.
- Clean the hedge trimmer at regular intervals and periodically check whether all
nuts and bolts are securely tightened.
- Never service or store the pole hedge trimmer in the vicinity of naked flames,
sparks, etc.
- Empty the fuel tank before storage, and always store the pole hedge trimmer in a
well-ventilated locked room. Make sure the pole hedge trimmer is out of
children's reach at all times.
- To prevent further damage and/or personal injury, refrain from repairing a
malfunctioning pole hedge trimmer if not qualified to do so. For repairs always
contact your dealer or an authorized service agent.
Do not attempt to modify or remodel the pole hedge trimmer as this may affect
operation safety.
