Keep body parts and pieces of clothing away from the
–
trimmer head when you start the engine, or keep it
running.
Always keep in mind that especially during trim-
–
ming of lawn edges, gravel enclosures, and similar
locations stone and dirt can be hurled away from
the cutting line.
Never cross roads or paths when the tool is switched
–
on.
Never cut against hard objects such as stone, etc.
–
This way you avoid injuries, and damages to the
tool.
When using metal cutting tools, there is a basic
–
risk of kickback if the tool meets a fixed obstruction
(stones, trees, branches etc.). In this event, the tool
is whipped back in the opposite direction of rotation.
Never use the tool without the guards attached.
–
Never use your hands to stop the cutting device.
–
Always wait until it stops on its own.
–
Hold and guide the trimmer head as close to the
–
ground as possible.
Only cut grass growing on the ground. Do not cut
–
grass in cracks in walls, growing or on rocks, etc.
Always make sure no objects, or other debris is col-
–
lecting in the trimmer head, in the protective hood,
or in the engine.
Only use the tool, when the guard is attached.
–
Always switch off the tool, before you put it down.
–
Keep in mind that there is risk of injuries in the area
–
of the cutting device intended to cut off the line.
CAUTION: The cutting tool continues rotating for a
–
few seconds after the engine is turned off.
Put the tool down only after the cutting tool has
–
completely stopped and the motor is turned off.
When the cutting tool is damaged, it must be re-
–
placed at once.
Always use the original line only. Never use a metal
–
wire instead of the nylon line.
Tool and cutting tools must be properly inspected
–
and serviced periodically. Damages must be re-
paired by a service center.
Only use accessories recommended by the manufac-
–
turer. See Maintenance/Accessories
Never use metal multi-piece cutting blades, cutting
–
tools with spinning chains or flail blades.
Have your tool serviced only by qualified personnel
–
and by use of original spare parts only. This ensures
that the tool will work safely in the future.

• Always start the cut with the saw chain running.
Make the cut in such a way that the saw does not
get jammed in the wood.
• Use the gripping spikes for every cut as the starting
point and always start the cut with the saw chain
running. Make the cut in such a way that the saw
does not get jammed in the wood.
• Pay particular attention to branches under tension.
• Always pull the tool out of the wood when the saw
chain is running.
• Never work with the tool above shoulder height or
with only one hand.
• Always stand away from the falling direction. Posi-
tion yourself on a slope above the tree to be felled.
• Always stand sideways when carrying out sawing
work on a tree which is located on a slope, never
work from above or below.
• Always look out for the falling direction of the parts
which are cut off.
• Never start the cut with the bar tip and never cut
with the bar tip.
• Risk of kickback! There is always a risk of kickback
when the bar tip touches the wood or other objects.
This makes the chainsaw uncontrollable and it may
be thrown towards the operator with great force.
• Do not use the tool as a lever to move objects.
• Always use the chain guard during transport and
storage.
• Secure the tool during transport in order to prevent
damage or injury.

contact with foreign objects such as stones, fences,
nails and similar. These objects could be ejected
and injure the operator or passers-by or damage
the saw chain.
• National specifications may restrict the use of the
pole saw.
• Do not use the machine within 10 metres of a po-
sition from which it can reach high-voltage cables.
Before working on the tool itself (e.g. transport,
set-up, retooling, cleaning and maintenance), dis-
connect plug!
Always attach the transport guard straight away.
