Be particularly alert and cautious when

wearing hearing protection because

your ability to hear warnings (shouts,

alarms, etc.) is restricted.

To reduce the risk of accidents, take a

break in good time to avoid tiredness or

exhaustion.

Work calmly and carefully – in daylight

conditions and only when visibility is

good. Stay alert so as not to endanger

others.

To reduce the risk of serious or fatal

injury from breathing toxic fumes,

ensure proper ventilation when working

in trenches, hollows or other confined

locations.

To reduce the risk of accidents, stop

work immediately in the event of

nausea, headache, visual disturbances

(e.g. reduced field of vision), problems

with hearing, dizziness, deterioration in

ability to concentrate. Apart from other

possibilities, these symptoms may be

caused by an excessively high

concentration of exhaust gases in the

work area.

Operate your power tool so that it

produces a minimum of noise and

emissions – do not run the engine

unnecessarily, accelerate the engine

only for cutting.

To reduce the risk of fire, do not smoke

while operating or standing near your

power tool. Note that combustible fuel

vapor may escape from the fuel system.

The dusts, vapor and smoke produced

during operation may be dangerous to

health. If dust levels are very high, wear

a suitable respirator.

The gearbox becomes hot during

operation. To reduce the risk of burn

injury, do not touch the gearbox

housing.

If your power tool is subjected to

unusually high loads for which it was not

designed (e.g. heavy impact or a fall),

always check that it is in good condition

before continuing work – see also

"Before Starting". Check the fuel system

in particular for leaks and make sure the

safety devices are working properly. Do

not continue operating your power tool if

it is damaged. In case of doubt, have the

machine checked by your servicing

dealer.

Special care must be taken when

working in difficult, over-grown terrain.

When cutting high scrub, under bushes

and hedges: Keep cutting tool at

minimum height of 15 cm to avoid

harming small animals.

Before leaving the power tool

unattended: Shut off the engine.

Check the cutting attachment at regular

short intervals during operation or

immediately if there is a noticeable

change in cutting behavior:

– Turn off the engine. Hold the unit

firmly and press the cutting

attachment into the ground to bring

it to a standstill.

– Check condition and tightness, look

for cracks.

– Check sharpness.

– Replace damaged or dull cutting

attachments immediately, even if

they have only superficial cracks.

Clean grass and plant residue off the

cutting attachment mounting at regular

intervals – remove any build up of

material from the cutting attachment and

deflector.

To reduce the risk of injury, shut off

the engine before replacing the cutting

attachment.

Your power tool produces

toxic exhaust fumes as

soon as the engine is

running. These fumes

may be colorless and

odorless and contain

unburned hydrocarbons

and benzol. Never run

the engine indoors or in

poorly ventilated loca-

tions, even if your model

is equipped with a cata-

lytic converter.

To reduce the risk

of injuryfrom

thrown objects,

never operate the

unit without the

proper deflector for

the type of cutting

attachment being

used.

Inspect the work area:

Stones, pieces of metal

or other solid objects can

be thrown and cause per-

sonal injury or damage

the cutting attachment

and property (e.g. parked

vehicles, windows).
