Safety
start the equipment. There is a risk of fire if the petrol fuel
is not handled and stored carefully.

is risk of rotating parts touching the ground and quickly
twisting the machine causing damage or personal injury.
d)
Always hold the equipment firmly in both hands. Your
fingers and thumbs should be wrapped around the
handles. Using the machine with only one hand, will
cause bad stability (overbalancing) and could result in
damage to the machine, or personal injury.
e)
Ensure that all screws and connecting elements are
secure. Never use the equipment if it has not been
properly adjusted or has not been fully or safely
assembled. Loose parts and screws could cause damage
to the machine or personal injury if parts come loose or
fall off during use. There is also a greater risk of vibration
injury if screws are not tight.
f)
Make sure that the handles are clean and dry and that
there is no petrol mixture on them. Moist or greasy
surfaces may cause slipping control elements and could
result you losing control of the machine.

touching small objects such as stones with the line
spool. Touching small objects such as stones with the
spool may result in accident or injury if they are catapulted
away.

When carrying out cutting work on a slope, always
stand at a lower level than the cutting tool. Never cut
or trim on a smooth, slippery hill or slope. This could result
you losing control of the machine.
