Trimming Operation - Echo BCLS-520ES Manuel D'utilisation

 Always stop the engine when a cutting attachment jam occurs.
Severe injury can occur if a jam is removed and the cutting attachment suddenly starts.
 Do not operate the product without the shield in place.
Any objects that ricochet off the cutting attachment could cause an accident or serious injury.
 The area within a 15 m radius of the product is a danger zone. Be care-
ful to observe the following precautions while working with the prod-
uct.
 Do not allow children and other people or pets to enter the danger
zone.
 If another person enters the danger zone, turn off the engine to stop
the cutting attachment from rotating.
 When approaching the operator, signal to him by, for example,
throwing twigs from outside the danger zone, and then check that
engine has been switched off and the cutting attachment has
stopped turning.
 If more than one person is working with the product, identify the way
in which you will signal to each other and work at least 15 m apart.
Any objects that ricochet off the cutting attachment, and any contact with the cutting attachment, could cause blindness or a
fatal accident.
 Before starting work, check the area where you will be working and remove any small stones
and empty cans likely to ricochet off the cutting attachment, as well as any pieces of string
or wire that might become twisted around the cutting attachment.
An accident or serious injury can occur if foreign objects ricochet off the cutting attachment or wire
and other materials twisted round the product spring off it.
 In the following situations, turn off the engine immediately and ensure that the cutting attachments have stopped
before checking each area of the product. Replace any damaged parts.
 If the cutting attachment hits a rock, tree, post, or other such obstruction while you work.
 If the product suddenly starts to vibrate abnormally.
Continuing to use parts when they are damaged could lead to an accident or serious injury.
 Do not hold the cutting attachment up while you work. You must not work with the cutting attachments raised above
knee level.
Raising the cutting attachment above knee level brings the plane of rotation closer to the face, and any objects that fly off the
cutting attachments could cause an accident or serious injury.
Transport of the product
 When transporting in the situations described below, turn off the engine and ensure that the trimmer blade has
stopped rotating, then fit the trimmer blade cover and position the silencer away from yourself.
 Moving to the place where you are working.
 Moving to another area while you are working.
 Leaving the place where you have been working.
Failure to observe these precautions could cause burns or serious injury.
 When transporting the product by car, empty the fuel tank, fit the blade cover, and secure the product firmly in place
to prevent it from moving around.
Travelling by car with fuel in the fuel tank could lead to a fire.
 Never attempt to operate the product with one hand.
 Ensure that you hook your thumbs around the grips, wrapping them in your
thumb and remaining fingers.
