SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
 
Smaller machines generally require small trimmer heads 
and vice versa. This is because when clearing using a 
cord the engine must throw out the cord radially from the 
trimmer head and overcome the resistance of the grass 
being cleared.
The length of the cord is also important. A longer cord 
requires greater engine power than a shorter cord of the 
same diameter.
Make sure that the cutter on the trimmer guard is intact. 
This is used to cut the cord to the correct length.
To increase the life of the cord it can be soaked in water 
for a couple of days. This will make the line tougher so that 
it lasts longer.
 
General safety precautions
 
Starting
 
The complete clutch cover and shaft must be fitted before 
the machine is started, otherwise the clutch can come 
loose and cause personal injury.
Never start the machine indoors. Exhaust fumes can be 
dangerous if inhaled.
Observe your surroundings and make sure that there is no 
risk of people or animals coming into contact with the 
cutting equipment.
Place the machine on the ground, ensure the cutting 
attachment is clear of twigs and stones. Hold the body of 
the machine on the ground using your left hand 
(CAUTION! Not with your foot). Then grip the starter 
handle with your right hand and pull the starter cord.  
 
Never twist the starter cord around your hand.
 
 
 
Fuel safety
 
Always use a fuel container with an anti-spill valve.
Never refuel the machine while the engine is running. 
Always stop the engine and let it cool for a few minutes 
before refuelling.
Always ensure there is adequate ventilation when 
handling fuel.
Move the machine at least 3 m from the refuelling point 
before starting it.
Never start the machine: 
1
If you have spilt fuel on it. Wipe off the spillage and 
allow remaining fuel to evaporate.
2
If you have spilt fuel on yourself or your clothes, 
change your clothes. Wash any part of your body that 
has come in contact with fuel. Use soap and water.
IMPORTANT! Always ensure the trimmer cord is wound 
tightly and evenly around the drum, otherwise the machine 
will generate harmful vibration.
!
 
WARNING! Always stop the engine before 
doing any work on the cutting attachment. 
This continues to rotate even after the 
throttle has been released. Ensure that the 
cutting attachment has stopped completely 
and disconnect the HT lead from the spark 
plug before you start to work on it.
 
IMPORTANT!
The machine is only designed for trimming grass.
The only accessories you can operate with this engine unit 
are the cutting attachments we recommend in the chapter 
on Technical data.
Never use the machine if you are tired, if you have drunk 
alcohol, or if you are taking medication that could affect your 
vision, your judgement or your co-ordination.
Never use the machine in extreme weather conditions such 
as severe cold, very hot and/or humid climates.
Never use a machine that has been modified in any way 
from its original specification.
Wear personal protective equipment. See instructions 
under the heading Personal protective equipment.
Never use a machine that is faulty. Carry out the checks, 
maintenance and service instructions described in this 
manual. Some maintenance and service measures must be 
carried out by trained and qualified specialists. See 
instructions under the heading Maintenance.
All covers and guards must be fitted before starting. Make 
sure the spark plug cap and HT lead are not damaged. 
Otherwise you could get an electric shock.
The machine operator must ensure that no people or 
animals come closer than 15 metres while working. When 
several operators are working in the same area the safety 
distance should be at least twice the tree height and no less 
than 15 metres.
