propriation is regarded as im-
proper use. The user alone – and
definitely not the manufacturer – is
responsible for property and per-
sonal damage resulting from such
improper use.
The manufacturer cannot be held
liable if machines from the same
are modified or used improperly
and damage occurs as a result.
Caution! A certain residual risk, which
cannot be eliminated, always remains
even in the case of proper use of the
tool. The following potential hazards
can be derived from the type and de-
sign of the tool:
•
Contact with the unprotected cutting
head (cuts).
•
Reaching into the scythe when it is
running (cuts).
•
Hearing damage if no appropriate pro-
tection is worn.
•
Dust and gas formation that is harmful
to health if the equipment is used in
enclosed spaces (nausea).
