WORKING TECHNIQUES

General working instructions

IMPORTANT!

This sect io n descr ib es the bas ic saf et y pre-

cautions for working with trimmers. If you

encounter a situation where you are uncer-

tain how to proceed you should ask an ex-

pert. Contact your servicing deal er .

Avoid all usage which you consider to be

beyond your capability.

You must understand the difference between

forestry clearing, grass clearing and grass

trimming before use.

Basic safety rules

1. Look around you:

S To ensure that people, animals or other

things cannot affect your control of the

machine.

S To ensure that people, animals, etc.,

do not come into contact with the cut-

ting attachment or loose objects that

are thrown out by the cutting attach-

ment.

S CAUTION! Do not use the machine

unless you are able to call for help in

the event of an accident.

2. Do not use the machine in bad weather,

such as dense fog, heavy rain, strong

wind, intense cold, etc. Working in bad

weather is tiring and often brings added

risks, such as icy ground, unpredictable

felling direction, etc.

3. Make sure you can move and stand safely.

Check the area around you for possible ob-

stacles (roots, rocks, branches, ditches, etc.)

in case you have to move suddenly. Take

great care when working on sloping ground.

4. Switch off the engine before moving to

another area. Fit the transport guard before

carrying or transporting the equipment any

distance.

5. Never put the machine down with the engine

running or while the cutting attachment is

rotatin g.

WARNING: Sometimes

branches or grass get caught

between the guard and cutting

attachment or wrapped around the

shaft. Neither the operator of the

machine nor anyone else may at-

tempt to remove the cut material

while the engine is running or the

cutting equipment is rotating,

as this can result in serious injury .

Stop the engine and cutting equip-

ment before you remove material.

The bevel gear can get hot during

use and may remain so for a while

afterwards. You could get burned if

you touch it.

WARNING: Watch out for

thrown objects. Always wear

approved eye protection. Never

lean over the cutting attachment

guard. Stones, rubbish, etc. can be

thrown up into the eyes causing

blindness or serious injury. Keep

unauthorised persons at a dis-

tance. Children, animals, onlookers

and helpers should be kept outside

the safety zone of 15 m. Stop the

machine immediately if anyone

approaches. Never swing the ma-

chine around without first checking

behind you to make sure no one is

within the safety zone.

The

BC of clearing

S Always use the correct equipment.

S Make sure the equ ipmen t is well adjusted.

S Follow the safety precautions.

S Organise your work carefully.

S Always use full throttle when starting to cut

with the blade.

S Avoid stones.

Basic working techniques

S Always slow the engine to idle speed after

each working operation. Long periods at

full throttle without any load on the engine

can lead to serious engine damage.
