make sure the cutting attachment is not
touching the ground or any other object.
To reduce the risk of
injury, avoid contact with
the cutting attachment.

alarms, etc.) is restricted.
To reduce the risk of accidents, take a
break in good time to avoid tiredness or
exhaustion.
Work calmly and carefully – in daylight
