To reduce the risk of personal injury, do
not operate your power tool if it is
damaged or not properly assembled!
Check the gearbox for correct position,
adjust if necessary. This helps reduce
the risk of injury from the MultiTool
rotating in the wrong direction.
MultiEngine user manual.
If you use sweeping attachments,
position the gearbox so that the axle is
above the drive shaft.
Use this position for:

In the event of impending danger or in
an emergency, switch off the engine
immediately by moving the slide control
/ stop switch/button to 0 or STOP.

To reduce the risk of injury from contact
with the tool and ejected objects, do not
allow any other persons within a radius
of 5 meters of your own position.This
distance must also be maintained in
relation to objects (vehicles, window
panes) – risk of property damage!
The correct engine idle speed is
important to ensure that the attachment
stops moving when you let go of the
throttle trigger. Check and correct the
idle speed setting at regular intervals. If
the attachment still rotates when the
engine is idling, have your dealer check
your machine and make proper
adjustments or repairs – see
MultiEngine user manual.
To reduce the risk of injury from thrown
objects or contact with the attachment,
never operate the unit without a properly
mounted deflector designed specifically
for the unit and the attachment.
Always stand behind the deflector or to
one side of the machine during
operation – never in front of the
attachment.
Electrostatic charges may build up when
working on synthetic surfaces – risk of
electric shock and accidents!
Dust, fumes and smoke
produced while working
may be hazardous to
health! If dust levels are
high, wear a suitable
respirator.
To reduce the risk of a
dust explosion, spray
very dusty surfaces with
water before sweeping.
Take special care in slippery, wet
conditions, in snow and on slopes,
uneven ground, etc. – Risk of slipping!
To reduce the risk of accidents or injury,
remove all obstacles and objects from
the work area.
Check the work site –
rocks, metal objects etc.
may be caught up and
ejected – risk of injury!
Operate your power tool at normal
walking pace only.
