Before Operating; Rules For Safe Operation; Important Safety Information; While Operating - TrimmerPlus ST720r Manual Del Operador

The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your
attention to possible dangers. The safety symbols,
and their explanations, deserve your careful attention
and understanding. The safety warnings do not, by
themselves, eliminate any danger. The instructions or
warnings they give are not substitutes for proper
accident prevention measures.
SYMBOL MEANING

danger, warning, or caution. Attention is
required in order to avoid serious personal
injury. May be used in conjunction with
other symbols or pictographs.
NOTE: Advises you of information or instructions
vital to the operation or maintenance of
the equipment.
