Appliance-specific safety instructions

Rotating string
Works/adjustment on the appliance only to be performed
when the engine is off and string in an idle condition.
Before cutting
Check the fixtures for any damage and if tightened
properly (visual inspection) every time the appliance is to
be used.
Check the ground where the string trimmer is to be used
for any items that may get caught and be thrown-away by
the appliance and remove such items (stones, branches,
etc.).
When cutting
Wear protective glasses/protective shield/helmet,
hearing protection and gloves when working with the string
trimmer.
Work only with safety shoes with steel toes/sole and long
trousers, never barefooted or in sandals.
Provide adequate distance from persons, children
and animals.
Switch the engine on only when your feet are in a safe
distance from the cutting head.
At all times, hold the appliance firmly by both handles. By
this, the specified safe distance from the cutting area is
guaranteed.
Make sure your posture is safe.
Never touch the spool of string when the appliance is
running.
The spool keeps rotating for a few seconds after the
appliance is switched off. Never touch the spool.
Do not cut wet grass.
Make sure the engine ventilation slots are always clean
and with no grass remains.
Stones or other items that may cause serious
injuries may be thrown away when cutting.
Behaviour in case of emergency
Provide necessary first aid treatment corresponding to the
injury nature and seek qualified medical help as soon as
possible. Protect the injured person from other injuries and
calm him/her down.
First aid kit must always be available in the place of
your work in case of accident in accordance with DIN
13164. Material taken out of the first aid kit needs to be
supplemented right away.
