ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTION GRASS
TRIMMER
• Keep the area you are working in clean and tidy.
• Avoid operating the trimmer in rain or wet
environments especially when there is a risk of
lightning.
• Work only in daylight or in good artificial light.
• Do not use power tools where there is a risk of
fire or explosion - i.e. near flammable liquids or
gases. Power tools create sparks, which may
ignite the dust or fumes.
• Never operate the product when you are tired,
ill or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or
medicine.
• Always wear long heavy trousers, boots and
gloves. Do not wear loose clothing, jewellery,
short trousers, sandals and never work barefoot.
• Wear safety eye protection and ear defenders
when operating the machine.
• Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overre-
ach.
• Never allow children or people unfamiliar with
these instructions to use the trimmer. Local
regulations may restrict the age of the operator.
When not in use, store the trimmer out of reach
of children.
• Never work with this trimmer while people,
especially children or pets are nearby.
• Do not put hands or feet near the cutting sys-
tem.
• Never fit metal cutting elements to this trimmer.
• Inspect and maintain the trimmer regularly.
• Never operate the trimmer with missing or
broken guards or shields or without guards or
shields in position.
• Before using the machine and after impact,
check for signs of wear or damage and repair if
necessary
• Wait until the spool line has completely stopped
before touching it. The spool line continues to
rotate after the trimmer is switched off; a rota-
6
ting wire can cause injury.
• Operating the trimmer in wet grass decreases
the efficiency of performance.
• Switch off when transporting the trimmer to and
from the area to be worked on.
• Switch on the motor only when the hands and
feet are away from the cutting means.
• Have the trimmer repaired only by an authorized
customer service agent.

• Store the machine in a secure, dry place out of
the reach of children. Do not place other objects
on top of the machine.
• Do not operate the machine without the wire
attachment fitted

rate for which it was intended.
• We strongly recommend the use of an RCD (Re-
sidual Current Device) of not more than 30 mA,
at the plug socket when using this appliance.
• Do not allow the power cord to lay on or across
sharp objects that might pierce the outer insu-
lation. Carry out a visual inspection of the power
cord before use and if it is damaged, have it
replaced by a specialist service centre. Do not
use the appliance if the cord is damaged.
• If the cord becomes damaged during use,
disconnect the cord from the power supply
immediately. DO NOT TOUCH THE CORD BEFORE
DISCONNECTING THE SUPPLY. Do not use the
appliance if the appliance cord or the extension
cord are damaged.
• Keep extension cord away from cutting ele-
ments.
• Always ensure the guards are fitted when using
the tool.
• Check the cable for damage before starting
work and replace if necessary.
• Inspect and maintain the trimmer regularly.
Have the trimmer repaired only by an authorised
repairer.
