Restrictions of use
• Do not use the machine if you are
unable to hold it with both hands or keep
steady on your legs whilst working.
• Never use the machine with damaged,
missing or incorrectly positioned guards.
• Do not change the engine adjustments, or
exceed the maximum rpm. If the engine
is forced to run at an excessive speed,
the risk of personal injury increases.
• Do not strain the machine too much and
do not use a small machine for heavy-
duty work; if you use the right machine,
you will reduce the risk of hazards and
improve the quality of your work.
2.4 MAINTENANCE, STORAGE
AND TRANSPORT
Ensure regular maintenance and correct
storage to maintain machine safety
and high performance levels.
Never use the machine with worn or
damaged parts. Faulty or worn-out parts
must always be replaced and never repaired.
Only use original parts: using parts that are
not original or installed incorrectly affects
machine safety, and can therefore cause
accidents or personal injury and relieve the
Manufacturer of all obligations and liability.
Maintenance
• To reduce the risk of fire, check for oil
and/or fuel leaks on a regular basis.
• Be careful during adjustment of the
machine to prevent entrapment of the
fingers between moving parts of the cutting
means and fixed parts of the machine.
Storage
• Do not store the machine with fuel in the tank
in an area where fuel vapours could reach a
naked flame, spark or strong source of heat.
• To reduce fire risks, do not leave
containers with debris inside a room.
2.5 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Protecting the environment must be a
significant and top priority for machine
use, to the benefit of civil co-habitation
and of the environment that we live in.
• Avoid being an element of disturbance to
the surrounding area. Use this machine
at reasonable times of the day only (not
early morning or late evening when the
noise could cause disturbance).
• Adhere strictly to the local regulations
governing the disposal of packaging, oil,
fuel, filters, damaged parts or any other
element which may have an impact on
the environment; this waste must not be
disposed of with regular waste, but must
be separated and taken to collection
centres, which will recycle the materials.
• Comply with local regulations for
the disposal of waste materials.
• When the machine is withdrawn from service,
do not dispose of it in the environment,
but take it to a waste disposal facility in
accordance with the local regulations in force.
