5.1.1 Causes and avoidance of kickback
WARNING
Attention: Kick-back!
Watch out for kick-back when working with the product.
During kick-back, the user receives a strong jolt from
the product. This may result in them losing control of
the product.
There is a danger of injury!
Avoid kick-backs through caution and correct technique.
Only process free, flat surfaces with the tool attachment.
Carefully inspect the area to be cut and remove all foreign
objects.
Avoid bumping into stones, metal or other obstacles.
The tool attachment could be damaged and there is a risk
of kickback.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean in order to be able
to work better and more safely.
• Always hold the product tight with both hands
during work. Make sure that you have a secure foot-
ing.

Handling fuel

DANGER
Risk of fire and explosion!
When filling, fuel may ignite and even explode. This can
lead to severe burns or death.
• Only store fuel in containers (canisters) designed for
this purpose.
• The tank caps must always be properly screwed on
and tightened.
• Fuel must be filled before starting the engine. While
the engine is running or immediately after switching
off the product, do not open the fuel filler cap or add
fuel.

• Before refuelling, switch off the combustion engine
and let it cool down.
• Refuel outdoors only and do not smoke while refuel-
ling.
• Never store the product with fuel in the tank inside a
building. Any fuel vapours produced can come into
contact with naked flames or sparks and ignite.
• Do not place the product and fuel tank near heaters,
radiant heaters, welding machines or other sources of
heat.
• If fuel has overflowed, do not start the combustion en-
gine until the area contaminated with fuel has been
cleaned. Avoid starting the engine until the fuel va-
pours have evaporated (wipe dry).
• For safety reasons, check fuel line, fuel tank, fuel cap
and connections regularly for damage, ageing (brittle-
ness), tight fit and leaks and replace if necessary.

Residual risks

The product has been built according to state-of-the-
art and the recognised technical safety rules.
However, individual residual risks can arise during
operation.
• Furthermore, despite all precautions having been met,
some non-obvious residual risks may still remain.
• Residual risks can be minimised if the "Safety Instruc-
tions" and the "Intended Use" together with the oper-
ating manual as a whole are observed.
• Prevent the product being unintentionally started up.
• Keep your hands away from the working area when
the product is in operation.
• Unintentional starting up of the product.
• Comply with the stipulated maintenance and safety in-
structions in the operating manual.
WARNING
In case of extended working periods, the operating per-
sonnel may suffer circulatory disturbances in their
hands (vibration white finger) due to vibrations.
Raynaud's syndrome is a vascular disease that causes
the small blood vessels on the fingers and toes to
cramp in spasms. The affected areas are no longer
supplied with sufficient blood and therefore appear ex-
tremely pale. The frequent use of vibrating products can
cause nerve damage in people whose circulation is im-
paired (e.g. smokers, diabetics).
If you notice unusual adverse effects, stop working im-
mediately and seek medical advice.
