Children and young persons under 16 years of age as
well as persons who have not read the instruction manual
are not allowed to operate this product.
Keep bystanders and animals away from your working
area.
Do not allow other persons, especially children, to touch
the tool or cable.
Switch off the machine if persons, in particular children or
pets, are close to you or if you change your working area.
Do not overload the machine! You work better and safer in
the given performance range.
Only operate the machine with complete and correctly
attached safety equipment and do not alter anything on the
machine that could impair the safety.
Do not touch the knife, risk of injury.
Never install metallic cutting elements.
The use of other tools and other accessories can
signify a risk of injury for you.
Switch off the machine and wait until the cutting thread is
stationary. Then, disconnect the mains plug from the outlet
before:
− carrying out repair works
− maintenance and cleaning
− Elimination of failures (cleaning the thread spool)
− transport and storage
− Leaving the product (even in case of short-term
interruptions)
− (also for short-term interruptions)
Caution! After-running cutting thread! Do not try to slow
down the thread by the hand.
Thoroughly maintain your lawn trimmer:
− Make sure that the ventilation apertures are free.
− Keep handles dry and free of oils and grease.
− Follow the maintenance instructions and the
instructions for spool exchange.
Check the machine for possible damage:
− Before continuing to use the machine, the protective
devices must be inspected to ensure that they work
perfectly and with their intended function
− Check whether the movable parts function perfectly
and do not stick or whether the parts are damaged, All
parts must be correctly installed and fulfil all conditions
to ensure perfect operation of the saw
− Unless otherwise indicated in the operating instructions,
damaged safety devices and parts must be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorised workshop (or by
the manufacturer).
− Damaged or illegible safety warning labels should be
replaced immediately.
Store the unused machine in a dry locked place away from
the reach of children.

Electrical safety

Design of the connection cable according to IEC 60 245
(H 07 RN-F) with a core cross-profile section of at least
− 1.5 mm
for cable lengths up to 25 m
2
− 2.5 mm
for cable lengths over 25 m

Long and thin connection lines result in a potential drop.
The motor does not reach any longer its maximal power; the
function of the device is reduced.
Plugs and coupler outlets on connection cables must be
made of rubber, non-rigid PVC or other thermoplastic
material of same mechanical stability or be covered with this
material.
The connector of the connection cable must be splash-
proof.
When running the connection line observe that it does not
interfere, is not squeezed, bended and the plug connection
does not get wet.
Do not use the cable for purposes for which it is not meant.
Protect the cable against heat, oil and sharp edges. Do
not use the cable to pull the plug from the socket.
Wind off completely the cable when using a cable drum.
Regularly check the extension cables and replace them if
they are damaged.
Do not use any defective connection cables.
When working outdoors, only use extension cables
especially approved and appropriately labelled for outdoor
use.
Do not set up any provisional electrical connections.
Never bypass protective devices or deactivate them.
Only hook up the machine by means of a fault-current circuit
breaker (30 mA).
The electrical connection or repairs to electrical parts of
the machine must be carried out by a certified electrician
or one of our customer service points. Local regulations –
especially regarding protective measures – must be
observed.
Repairs to other parts of the machine must be carried out
by the manufacturer or one of his customer service
points.
Use only original spare. Accidents can arise for the user
through the use of other spare parts. The manufacturer
is not liable for any damage or injury resulting from such
action.
