Hints for safe Operation
Always wear person protection when working with the machine and
hold the machine securely with both hands on the Biker handle.
Always keep in mind that the trim head keeps rotating for a short
while after the throttle is released.
Always ensure a proper idle running of the engine so that the trim
head will no longer rotate, when the throttle is pressed.
Always use the highest speed for work, this way you will achieve
the best cutting result.
Always keep distance to cans, bottles, rocks, etc. Thrown objects
can cause serious injury to uninvolved persons and damage the
machine. If the machine touches a stone or a tree during work,
switch off the engine and remove the spark plug cap. Inspect the
trim head for damage. Never use a damaged trim head!
Avoid touching wood plants with the cutting thread. Any damage of
the bark can lead to the death of the plant.
Do not use the machine for other purposes then for trimming grass.
Never lift up the trim head above knee level during operation.
