Page 4: Intended Use
INTENDED USE When the thread reel is used, the motorized trimmer is suitable for cutting grass in the garden, along border edges and around trees or fence posts. When the metal cutting blade is used, the equipment cuts grass, weeds or light plant growth. The equipment is intended exclusively for private use. - Page 5 General Safety Information 1. Observe the surrounding conditions under which you are working. The motorized equipment produces toxic fumes as soon as the engine is running. These gases may be odourless and invisible. Therefore, never work with the equipment in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces. Ensure adequate ventilation when working.
- Page 6 • Always switch off the engine before filling. Always open the filler cap with care, so any excess pressure present can be relieved slowly and no fuel sprays out. The work with the equipment causes high temperatures on the housing. The equipment must therefore be allowed to cool before filling.
- Page 7 Caution! A certain residual risk, which cannot be eliminated, always remains even in the case of proper use of the tool. The following potential hazards can be derived from the type and design of the tool: • Contact with the unprotected cutting head (cuts). •...
- Page 8 12. The greatest care is required when extending the cutting thread. Risk of injury from cuts. After executing these processes, reassume the correct working position before switching on the equipment. 13. Do not use metallic cutting reels or saw blades.
