MFH3300-4P
To minimise the risk of accidents by use of the cutting blade, take note of
following points:
• Never cut shrubbery or wood whose diameter is larger than 2cm.
• Avoid contact with metal bodies, stones, etc.
• Periodically check the cutting blade for damages. Never continue to use a dam-
aged cutting blade.
• When the cutting blade becomes apparently blunt, it must be sharpened accord-
ing to instructions. When the cutting blade is apparently out of balance, it must be
replaced.
Automatic thread trimming (Fig. 37 - 39)
The petrol cutting blade is delivered with a filled line cassette (Fig. 24/19a).
This line will wear out during work. To feed new line, forcefully press the head of the
line cassette onto the ground while the engine is running at working speed.
The line is automatically fed due to centrifugal force.
The knife (Fig. 18/E) at the protection shield (17) will shorten the trimming line to the
correct length.
Run the trim line approach cautiously to an obstacle and cut with the tip of the line
around the obstacle.
Working with chain saw
Precautions for Saw procedure
Never stand under the branch you want to saw. Use special caution when working
with branches under tension and splintering wood. Possible risk of injury caused by
falling branches and catapulting pieces of wood. In general, it is recommended to
set the pruning saw at an angle of 60 ° to the ground.
While cutting, hold the tool securely with both hands and always ensure you
are in a balanced position with safe footing.
• Never try to use your tool with one hand. The loss of control of your tool can cause
serious injury or death. Never work on a ladder, a tree branch or other unstable
surfaces.
• Never cut with the upper edge or the tip of the chain saw bar.
• Make sure that the chain tension is always correctly adjusted.
• Apply a little pressure to guide the machine but do not overload the motor.
Clear the work area before cutting interfering branches and undergrowth. Then you
create a retreat area, far from the spot where the cut branches fall on, and remove
any obstacles there. Keep the work area clean, remove the cut branches immediate-
ly. Pay attention to your point, wind direction and the possible direction of fall of the
branches. Be prepared that fallen branches can strike back. Place all other tools and
equipment at a safe distance from the branches to be cut, but not in the retreat area.
