3. Safety Precautions and Warnings
This device complies with the required safety provisions
for combustion engines.
Read the manual carefully before operating the machine.
An improper use can lead to damage to persons and
property.
Persons who are not familiar with the instructions may
not operate the device.
Keep the safety instructions in a safe place.
Children and young people under the age of 16 are not
permitted to use the device.
Young people over 16, who work under the guidance of
a trained person, are permitted to use this.
Make sure that no persons or animals are found in the
vicinity of the working area (minimum distance of 15 m).
Foreign objects such as stones can be found in the cut
and stirred-up grass. You will carry the responsibility for
the safety in your work area and are subject to liability
for damage to persons or objects.
The petrol-brush cutter may not be started or used in the
vicinity of people or animals.
Do not use the appliance if you feel tired, sick or cannot
concentrate or are under the influence of alcohol or
drugs. Inattention can result in serious injury.
Wear personal protective equipment, in order to protect
yourself against a threat to your safety and health.
This includes wearing approved safety glasses, hearing
protection, protective gloves and non-slip foot protection
and protective clothing.
Never work with the device wearing sandals or even
barefoot.
Wear a permitted helmet in any case, in case of
afforestation work.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Wear long pants
to protect your legs. If you have long hair, wear a head
cover. Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair could get
caught by moving parts.
Wear suitable tough clothes that are tight.
Keep parts of your body and clothing away from the
cutting tool when you start the engine and let it run.
When you work, make sure that you have a fixed and
a secure position. Avoid walking backwards with the
device, due to risk of tripping.
Avoid abnormal postures of your body. In case of a
prolonged use of the gasoline- brush cutter, it can lead
to a vibration-related disorder of the blood circulation
(white finger disease). The white finger syndrome is a
vascular disease in which the small blood vessels of
the fingers and toes cramp in a paroxysmal manner. The
affected areas are no longer supplied sufficient with
blood and appear extremely pale due to this. Information
on the duration of use cannot be given in this case
because this can be different from person to person. The
following factors can influence this phenomenon:
Blood circulation disorders of the hands of the operator,
low external temperatures, long periods of usage. It is
therefore recommended to wear warm working gloves
and have regular work breaks.
Dispose the equipment, accessories and packaging as
well as used oil and petrol at the points provided for this
and bring it away to an environmental-friendly recycling.
This little effort will be beneficial to our environment.
The exhaust gases from internal combustion engines are
toxic and can cause suffocation among other things.
The device must be in operation only outdoors.
Fill the fuel tank only outdoors or in well-ventilated
areas.
Petrol and petrol vapours can be easily ignited. Keep the
appliance away from flammable materials and sources
of ignition such as ovens or stoves.
The resulting gases are toxic and are suffocating!
CAUTION Danger of fire!
Petrol and petrol vapours are easily ignitable!
Used oil must be disposed of in accordance with
applicable regulations.
