–
grip.
Always keep the cutting blade well away
from your body, especially your feet and
legs.
Transport the power tool only after the
motor has cooled down.

your power tool and its parts (e.g.
grassbox) to prevent turnover and
damage. Attach ropes or straps to the
handles.

your power tool. The solid jet of water
may damage parts of the power tool.

When the power tool is not in use, store
it so that it does not endanger others.
Secure it against unauthorized use.
