GENERAL PRODUCT SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and
specifications provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mainsoperated (corded)
product or battery-operated (cordless) product.
WORK AREA SAFETY Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents. Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. Keep children
and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk
of electric shock. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such
as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. Do not expose power tools
to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk
of electric shock.
Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position
before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and
clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be
caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which
it was designed.
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/ or remove the battery pack, if
detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
2 Original Instructions
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power
tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that
is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause burns or a fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid
contact. If contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts
eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may
cause irritation or burns.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or
modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool
outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging
improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be
performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
GRASS TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
Do not use the machine in bad weather conditions, especially when there is a
risk of lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
Thoroughly inspect the area for wildlife where the machine is to be used.
Wildlife may be injured by the machine during operation.
Thoroughly inspect the area where the machine is to be used and remove all
stones, sticks, wires, bones, and other foreign objects. Thrown objects can
cause personal injury.
Before using the machine, always visually inspect to see that the cutter or
blade and the cutter or blade assembly are not damaged. Damaged parts increase
the risk of injury.
Follow instructions for changing accessories. Improperly tightened blade
securing nuts or bolts may either damage the blade or result in it becoming
detached.
The rated rotational speed of the blade must be at least equal to the maximum
rotational speed marked on the machine. Blades running faster than their rated
rotational speed can break and fly apart.
Wear eye, ear, head and hand protection. Adequate protective equipment will
reduce personal injury by flying debris or accidental contact with the cutting
line or blade.
While operating the machine, always wear non-slip and protective footwear. Do
not operate the machine when barefoot or wearing open sandals. This reduces
the chance of injury to the feet from contact with the moving cutters or
lines.
While operating the machine, always wear long trousers. Exposed skin increases
the likelihood of injury from thrown objects.
Keep bystanders away while operating the machine. Thrown debris can result in
serious personal injury.
Always use two hands when operating the machine. Holding the machine with both
hands will avoid loss of control.
Hold the machine by the insulated gripping surfaces only, because the cutting
line or blade may contact hidden wiring. Cutting line or blades contacting a
“live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the machine “live” and could give
the operator an electric shock.
Always keep proper footing and operate the machine only when standing on the
ground. Slippery or unstable surfaces may cause a loss of balance or control
of the machine.
Do not operate the machine on excessively steep slopes. This reduces the risk
of loss of control, slipping and falling which may result in personal injury.
When working on slopes, always be sure of your footing, always work across the
face of slopes, never up or down and exercise extreme caution when changing
direction. This reduces the risk of loss of control, slipping and falling
which may result in personal injury.
Original Instructions 3
Keep all parts of the body away from the cutter, line or blade when the
machine is operating. Before you start the machine, make sure the cutter, line
or blade is not contacting anything. A moment of inattention while operating
the machine may result in injury to yourself or others.
Do not operate the machine above waist height. This helps prevent unintended
cutter or blade contact and enables better control of the machine in
unexpected situations.
When cutting brush or saplings that are under tension, be alert for spring
back. When the tension in the wood fibres is released, the brush or sapling
may strike the operator and/or throw the machine out of control.
Use extreme caution when cutting brush and saplings. The slender material may
catch the blade and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.
Maintain control of the machine and do not touch cutters, lines or blades and
other hazardous moving parts while they are still in motion. This reduces the
risk of injury from moving parts.
Carry the machine with the machine switched off and away from your body.
Proper handling of the machine will reduce the likelihood of accidental
contact with a moving cutter, line or blade.
When transporting or storing the machine, always fit the cover on metal
blades. Proper handling of the machine will reduce the likelihood of
accidental contact with the blade.
Only use replacement cutters, lines, cutting heads and blades specified by the
manufacturer. Incorrect replacement parts may increase the risk of breakage
and injury.
When clearing jammed material or servicing the machine, make sure the switch
is off and the battery pack is removed. Unexpected starting of the machine
while clearing jammed material or servicing may result in serious personal
injury.

WARNING! The declared vibration total values and the declared noise emission
values given in this instruction manual have been measured in accordance with
a standardised test and may be used to compare one tool with another. They may
be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration and
noise emission values represent the main applications of the tool. However, if
the tool is used for different applications, used with different accessories,
or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may differ. These
conditions may significantly increase the exposure levels over the total
working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and noise
should take into account the times when the tool is turned off or when it is
running idle. These conditions may significantly reduce the exposure level
over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect
the operator from the effects of vibration and noise, such as maintaining the
tool and the accessories, keeping the hands warm (in case of vibration), and
organising work patterns..
