prefer, in a straight horizontal form, roof-like or rounded.

injury. The additional shock protection avoids inconvenient kickback when the blades
come into contact with walls, fences etc.
▪ If the blades are jammed or blocked by obstacles, switch the motor off immediately, pull
the plug, and then remove the object jamming the blades.
