extremely important that the raised

the cutting attachment. If the cutting 
attachment is fitted incorrectly it can 
result in serious and/or fatal personal 
injury.

attachment without an approved guard. 
See the chapter on Technical data. If an 
incorrect or faulty guard is fitted this can 
cause serious personal injury.
IMPORTANT! If a saw blade or grass blade are to be 
used the machine must be equipped with the correct 
handlebar, blade guard and harness.
