Safety regulations

1.8 Working with the machine

 Only use this power tool when it is complete and in a safe condition.
As soon as the engine is running, the power tool generates toxic gases, which may be invisible and
odourless. Never work with the power tool in enclosed spaces. In confined conditions such pits or
excavations, ensure adequate air changes during work.
Do not smoke at the work site and in the immediate vicinity of the power tool. There is an increased
fire hazard!
 Work conscientiously, thoughtfully and calmly, and do not endanger third parties.
- Pay attention to good visibility and lighting conditions.
- Always remain within earshot of other people who can provide help in case of emergency.
- Plan for timely work breaks.
- Pay attention to possible hazards and take appropriate precautions. Be aware that wearing ear
defenders reduces the ability to perceive noise. This includes sounds alerting to danger such as
signals, shouts, etc. that can go unnoticed.
- Exercise caution when the ground is wet or covered in ice and snow, on overhangs, or uneven
terrain. There is an increased risk of slipping!
- Pay attention to the risk of stumbling and obstacles, such as tree roots and stumps, edges, etc. Pay
particular attention to safety when working on slopes.
- Before commencing work, check the working area for stones, broken glass, nails, wire or other solid
objects and remove such debris to prevent them being picked up and thrown out by the cutters.
- Always hold this power tool firmly in both hands, and ensure your safe and solid foothold.
- Always hold the cutters below hip level. Never lift a rotating cutter off the ground.
- Keep all parts of the body away from rotating cutters.
- Use a correct operating mode (see Chapter 7.3 "Correct operating mode ").
- Use the power tool at lowest possible noise and exhaust levels. Only open the throttle when working,
do not let the engine run unnecessarily. Please note that noise also impacts on the environment.
Observe the quiet times that can vary from place to place.
- Never use blunt cutters and avoid uncontrolled contact of the cutter with debris. Otherwise there will
be an increased risk of the equipment kicking, which could throw the entire machine around. As a
result, the operator could be subjected to involuntary movements, which could lead to serious injury
or death.
 Stop the engine if you notice a difference in the operating characteristics of the power tool.
 Due to the centrifugal clutch, the cutters will run on for a short time, even if you release the throttle.
Ensure the cutter has come to a full stop before storing the machine.
 Always stop the engine before any contact with the cutter – even when clearing a blockage or if cutters
have become jammed – wait until the cutter has stopped and remove the spark plug cap.
 Never touch the exhaust or the silencer; as long as they are still hot, there is a risk of burns!
 Never work with a defective or missing silencer. There is a hazard of hearing damage and burning!
