SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
 
Vibration damping system
 
Your machine is equipped with a vibration damping system 
that is designed to reduce vibration and make operation 
easier.
Use of incorrectly wound cord or an incorrect cutting 
attachment increases the level of vibration.
The machine
 
 
s vibration damping system reduces the transfer 
of vibration between the engine unit/cutting equipment and 
the machine
 
 
s handle unit.
 
Muffler
 
The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum 
and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user.
A muffler fitted with a catalytic converter is also designed to 
reduce harmful exhaust gases.
In countries that have a warm and dry climate there is a 
significant risk of fire. We therefore fit certain mufflers with a 
spark arrestor mesh. Check whether the muffler on your 
machine is fitted with this kind of mesh.
For mufflers it is very important that you follow the instructions 
on checking, maintaining and servicing your machine. See 
instructions under the heading Checking, maintaining and 
servicing the machine’s safety equipment.
 
Cutting equipment
 
A trimmer head is intended for trimming grass.
 
Locking nut
 
A locking nut is used to secure some types of cutting 
attachment.

WARNING! Overexposure to vibration can 
lead to circulatory damage or nerve damage 
in people who have impaired circulation. 
Contact your doctor if you experience 
symptoms of overexposure to vibration. 
Such symptoms include numbness, loss of 
feeling, tingling, pricking, pain, loss of 
strength, changes in skin colour or 
condition. These symptoms normally appear 
in the fingers, hands or wrists. The risk 
increases at low temperatures.
!
 
WARNING! Mufflers fitted with catalytic 
converters get very hot during use and 
remain so for some time after stopping. This 
also applies at idle speed. Contact can result 
in burns to the skin. Remember the risk of 
fire!
!
 
WARNING! The inside of the muffler contain 
chemicals that may be carcinogenic. Avoid 
contact with these elements in the event of a 
damaged muffler.
!
 
WARNING! Bear in mind that:
Engine exhaust fumes contain carbon 
monoxide, which can cause carbon 
monoxide poisoning. For this reason you 
should not start or run the machine indoors, 
or anywhere that is poorly ventilated. 
The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot 
and may contain sparks which can start a 
fire. Never start the machine indoors or near 
combustible material!
