• Wear personal protective equipment
when using the machine: Hearing
protection, eye protection (visor or
goggles), head protection and cut-proof
work clothes.
• Wear non-slip foot protection when us-
ing the machine.
• Use the shoulder strap and hold the ma-
chine by the handle and round handle.
• Always remain attentive. Pay
attention to what you are doing.
Use common sense. Do not use ma-
chines if you are tired. You may not op-
erate the machine under the influence of
alcohol, medication or drugs that impair
your ability to react.
• Before removing blockages, switch
off the engine and let the device cool
down.
• Keep a safe distance of at least 15
metres from other persons and hold the
machine only by the specified grip sur-
faces.
• Warning of exhaust emissions
The machine produces toxic exhaust
gases as soon as the engine is running.
These gases can be odourless and
invisible. Therefore, never work with the
machine in closed or poorly ventilated
rooms.
• Duration of use and breaks
Prolonged use of the machine can lead
to problems with the blood circulation in
the hands caused by vibrations, known
as white finger disease. You can how-
ever extend your potential machine use
time by wearing appropriate gloves or
by taking regular breaks. Please ensure
that if you are susceptible to poor cir-
culation, low outside temperatures or
strong gripping forces while working,
this may reduce the length of time for
which you are able to work.
• Do not assume a dangerous
working position. Never work on a
ladder! Only work on firm and stable
surfaces! Avoid an abnormal body
posture. Keep your balance at all times.
Ensure that there is sufficient lighting
during the work. Make sure you have a
secure footing in wet conditions, snow,
ice, on slopes and on uneven terrain.
String trimmer - kickback
causes and how to avoid
them with a 3-tooth blade
In the event of a kickback,
the operator will feel a pow-
erful blow from the combina-
tion machine. This may lead
to losing control of the device
and serious injury. You can
avoid kickbacks through cau-
tion and proper technique.
While working with the 3- tooth blade
there is a risk of kickback if the blade edge
hits an obstacle (stone, wood).
• Hold the device with both hands.
• Make sure there are no obstacles on
the ground and do not use the 3-tooth
blade near fences, metal posts or simi-
lar.
