◾ ◾
If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the motor, remove
the battery pack from the Lawn Trimmer and check immediately for the cause.
Vibration is generally a warning of trouble. A loose head may vibrate, crack,
break or come off the Lawn Trimmer, which may result in serious or fatal injury.
Make sure that the cutting attachment is properly fixed in position. If the head
loosens after fixing it in position, replace it immediately. Never use a Lawn
Trimmer with a loose cutting attachment.
◾ ◾
Replace a cracked, damaged or worn-out cutting head immediately, even if
damage is limited to superficial cracks. Such attachments may shatter at high
speed and cause serious or fatal injury.
◾ ◾
Check the cutting attachment at regular short intervals during operation, or
immediately if there is a noticeable change in cutting behavior.
◾ ◾
Only use Honda authorized polymer Lawn Trimmer line accessories
(∅ 2.4 mm) and Lawn Trimmer line that are designed for use with this machine.
Do not use any unauthorized attachments with your Honda Lawn Trimmer, their
use may be extremely dangerous, and/or damaging to the tools.
◾ ◾
To reduce the risk of serious injury, never use wire or metal-reinforced line or
other material in place of the nylon cutting lines. Pieces of wire could break off
and be thrown at high speed toward the operator or bystanders.
◾ ◾
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of control, never work on a ladder or on
any other insecure support. Never hold the cutting attachment above waist
height.
◾ ◾
If situations occur that are not covered in this manual, use care and good
judgment. Please contact your authorised Honda dealer for assistance.
◾ ◾
