– assess the potential risks of the ground you
are working on and take all necessary pre-
cautions to ensure your own safety, especially
on slopes or on bumpy, slippery or unstable
ground.
– Work along the contour on slopes, never when
walking up or down and always keep downhill
of the cutting device.
4) Make sure the machine is securely locked
when you start the engine:
– start the engine in an area at least 3 metres
from where you refuelled;
– check that there is nobody within at least 15
metres of the machine's range of action or at
least 30 metres for heavier cutting;
– do not direct the silencer and therefore the ex-
haust fumes towards inflammable materials.
5) Do not change the engine settings or over-
speed the engine.
6) Do not strain the machine too much and do
not use a small machine for heavy-duty works;
if you use the right machine, you will reduce the
risk of hazards and improve the quality of your
work.
7) Check that when the machine is running idle,
there is no movement of the cutting device and,
after pressing the throttle trigger, the engine
quickly returns to minimum speed.
8) Ensure that the blade does not come into
violent contact with foreign bodies and beware
of the possibility of material being thrown up by
the blades.
9) Always keep the machine connected to the
harness when working.
10) Stop the engine:
– whenever you leave the machine unattended;
– before refuelling;
– when moving between work areas.
11) Stop the engine and disconnect the spark
plug cable:
– before checking, cleaning or working on the
machine;
– after striking a foreign object. Inspect the ma-
chine for damage and make repairs before re-
starting and operating the machine;
- if the machine begins to abnormally vibrate: im-
mediately look for the cause of the vibrations and
have it checked at a Specialised Centre).
– when the machine is not in use.
WARNING! Stop the engine immediately if
the blade stops during work. Always be-
ware 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,
causing loss of control of the machine, jeop-
ardising operator safety and causing dam-
age to the machine itself.
D) MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1) Keep all nuts and screws tight to be sure the
machine is always in safe working condition.
Routine maintenance is essential for safety and
for maintaining a high performance level.
2) Do not store the machine with fuel in the tank
in an area where the fuel vapours could reach
an open flame, a spark or a strong heat source.
3) Allow the engine to cool down before storing
the machine in any enclosure.
4) To reduce fire hazards, keep the engine, ex-
haust silencer and fuel storage area free from
sawdust, branches, leaves, or excessive grease;
never leave containers with the cut debris inside
the storage area.
5) If the fuel tank has to be emptied, this should
be done outdoors once the engine has cooled
down.
6) Always wear protective gloves when handling
the cutting device.
7) Before putting the machine away, check you
have removed wrenches or tools used for main-
tenance.
8) Store the machine out of the reach of chil-
dren!
E) TRANSPORTATION AND HANDLING
1) Whenever the machine is to be handled or
transported you must:
– turn off the engine, wait for the cutting device
to stop and disconnect the spark plug cap;
– fit the cutting device guard;
– only hold the machine using the handgrips and
position the cutting device in the opposite di-
rection to that used during operations.
2) When using a vehicle to transport the ma-
chine, position it so that it can cause no danger
to persons and fasten it firmly in place to prevent
it from tipping over, which may cause damage or
fuel spillage.
