7. USING THE MACHINE

To respect people and the environment:
– Try not to cause any disturbance.
– Scrupulously comply with local regulations
and provisions for the disposal of waste
materials after sawing.
– Scrupulously comply with local regulations
and provisions for the disposal of oils,
petrol, damaged parts or any elements
which have a strong impact on the environ-
ment.
WARNING!
brations can cause injuries and neurovascular
disorders (also called "Renaud's syndrome"
or "white hand"), especially to people suffer-
ing from circulation disorders. The symptoms
can regard the hands, wrists and fingers and
are shown through loss of sensitivity, torpor,
itching, pain and discolouring of or structural
changes to the skin. These effects can be
worsened by low ambient temperatures and/or
by gripping the handgrips excessively tightly.
If the symptoms occur, the length of time the
machine is used must be reduced and a doc-
tor consulted.

can provide you with all the information on
the most suitable accident-prevention devices
to guarantee your safety.
USING THE WEBBING (Fig. 9)
WARNING!
be used connected to the webbing worn cor-
rectly. Frequently check the efficiency of the
quick release mechanism used to quickly free
the machine from the belts in case of danger.
The webbing must be put on before connecting the
machine to the special coupling and the belts must
be adjusted to suit the operator's height and
stature.
If the machine has more than one coupling hole,
use the most favourable point for keeping the ma-
chine balanced when working.
Always use webbing suited to the weight of the ma-
chine and the cutting device used
– the single or double belt models can be used for
machines weighing less than 7.5 kg fitted

The machine must always
with the cutting line head or 3 or 4-point
blades;
– the double belt model must be used for ma-
chines weighing more than 7.5 kg fitted with
the saw blade (if permitted).
• Single belt "MONO" models
The belt (1) must go over the left shoulder towards
the right hip.
• Double belt models
The belt (2) must be worn with:
– the machine's support and snap-hook coupling
on the right side (2.1);
– the release in front (2.2);
– the belts cross-over on the operator's back (2.3);
– the buckle properly fastened on the left side
(2.4).
The belts must be tensioned so that the load is
evenly distributed on the shoulders.
USING THE MACHINE
WARNING!
chine must always be firmly held in both
hands, keeping the power unit on the right of
the body and the cutting group below the line
of the belt.
WARNING!
ately if the blade stops during sawing. Always
beware of a kickback, which could occur if a
blade encounters a solid object (logs, roots,
branches, stones, etc.). Do not touch the
ground with the blade. Kickbacks cause blade
recoils that are difficult to control, so as to
cause loss of control of the machine, com-
promise operator safety and cause damage to
the machine itself.
Before tackling a mowing job for the first time it is
advisable to gain the necessary familiarity with the
machine and the most suitable cutting techniques,
finding out how to wear the webbing correctly,
firmly gripping the machine and making the move-
ments required by the job.
