EINHELL AGILLO Original Operating Instructions page 33

•
Check at regular intervals that the screws are
properly tightened.
•
The area to be cut must always be kept clea-
red of cables and other objects.
•
If the equipment has to be lifted for trans-
porting, be sure to switch off the motor first
and wait for the cutter to come to a standstill.
Each time you leave the equipment, switch off
the motor.
•
Under no circumstances are you to cut
against hard objects during use. This is impe-
rative to prevent injury to yourself and dama-
ge to the equipment.
•
Use only original replacement parts for re-
pairs.
•
Before starting up the equipment, and after
any collision, check the equipment for signs
of wear or damage and have any necessary
repairs carried out.
•
Always keep your hands and feet away from
the cutting unit, especially when switching the
motor on.
•
Unplug the rechargeable battery before
checking, cleaning or doing any work on the
equipment and when it is not being used.
•
Acquaint yourself with the controls and how to
use the tool.
•
Stop using the equipment when there are
people – particularly children – or pets nearby.
•
Never use the machine if protective equip-
ment is damaged or missing.
•
Never mount metal cutting elements.
If it is used for a lengthy period, the vibrations it
causes in the hands of the user may result in cir-
culation problems (white fi nger syndrome).
The hand-arm vibration syndrome (vibration white
fi nger) is a vascular disease that involves seizure-
like spasms of the fi ngers and toes. The aff ected
areas are no longer suffi ciently supplied with
blood and therefore appear extremely pale. The
frequent use of vibrating equipment may trigger
nerve damage in people with an impaired circula-
tion (for example smokers, diabetics).
Should you observe any unusual impairments,
interrupt your work immediately and consult a
doctor.
Follow these instructions in order to reduce the
dangers:
•
Keep your body and in particular your hands
warm when working in the cold
•
Take regular breaks and move your hands
to stimulate the blood circulation during the

GB
breaks.
•
Ensure that the equipment makes the least
possible vibration through regular mainte-
nance and solid parts on the equipment.
Safety precautions for handling the blade
•
Take not of all warnings and instructions rela-
ting to operating and fitting the blade.
•
The blade can recoil suddenly from objects
if it cannot cut or mow through them. This
can cause injuries to the arms or legs. Keep
bystanders and animals at least 15 m away
from where you are working. If the equip-
ment strikes a foreign body, stop the engine
immediately and wait for the blade to come
to a standstill. Check the blade for signs of
damage. Always replace the blade if it is bent
or cracked.
•
The blade is liable to catapult away objects
with high force. This can cause blindness or
injuries. Wear protection on your eyes, face
and legs. Always remove objects from your
working area before you use the blade.
•
Carefully check the equipment and its fittings
for signs of damage every time before use.
Do not use the equipment unless all the blade
fittings are installed correctly.
•
When you release the throttle lever, the blade
will continue to rotate and will only gradually
come to a standstill. A blade which is in the
process of rotating to a standstill can cause
you or bystanders injuries through cutting.
Before you start any work on the blade, switch
off the engine and ensure that the blade has
come to a standstill.
•
The danger zone has a radius of 15 meters.
Bystanders may suffer blindness or injuries.
Keep a distance of 15 meters between your-
self and other people or animals.
Important: The cutting unit continues to run
for a few seconds after the motor is switched
off .
The cutter continues to rotate!
