Before you work with the device,
make yourself familiar with all oper-
ating actuators. Practice handling
the device and have the function,
operation and working methods ex-
plained to you by a practiced user
or specialist. Make sure that you
can immediately shut off the device
in an emergency. Inappropriate use
of the device can lead to serious in-
juries.
Working with the electric lawn trimmer:
• The device must not be employed by
children. In the same way, working with
the device is forbidden to persons who
have not got complete knowledge of the
operating instructions. Laws and local
stipulations can determine a minimum
age for use.
• Keep the device away from people, par-
ticularly children and domestic animals
and interrupt your work if they come near.
Always keep a safety distance of 5 m
around yourself. Stones and gravel can
be thrown off, which can cause injuries.
• Use suitable working clothes and per-
sonal protective equipment! Basically,
wear protective goggles or eye protec-
tion, protection for the ears, boots or
shoes with anti-slip sole and robust, long
trousers, as well as working gloves.
