Safety at the workplace

• Use the tool only in good visibility conditions. A dark work area could cause accidents. Do not make cuts in low
light conditions, such as in the dark in closed or open environments, at night, at sunset, at dawn, with dust or sand
in the air that prevents clear visibility from less than 2 meters. To check whether the visibility is acceptable, put the
tool at 2 meters with visible labels, which must be clearly read.
• Do not use the tool in an explosive, flammable or damp environment.
• Keep children, bystanders or animals at a safe distance before operating the tool, in order to avoid dangers or inju-
ries. When determining the safety distance, assess the risk of taut branches being thrown at people, objects or ani-
mals. Under normal conditions of tension, 5 meters is the adequate safety distance from the edges of the
branches.
• Wear protective glasses or a visor, safety shoes, anti-vibration gloves and a noise-abatement headset (par. 3.8).
• Keep a safe and stable working position, which guarantees a perfect balance (i.e. flat and dry surfaces).
