SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Personal protective equipment
Machine′s safety equipment
This section describes the machine′s safety equipment, its
purpose, and how checks and maintenance should be carried
out to ensure that it operates correctly. See the ”What is
what?” section to locate where this equipment is positioned
on your machine.
IMPORTANT! You must use approved personal protective
equipment whenever you use the machine. Personal
protective equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but
it will reduce the degree of injury if an accident does
happen. Ask your dealer for help in choosing the right
equipment.
The life span of the machine can be reduced and the risk of
accidents can increase if machine maintenance is not carried
out correctly and if service and/or repairs are not carried out
professionally. If you need further information please contact
your nearest service workshop.
WARNING! Listen out for warning signals or
!
shouts when you are wearing hearing
protection. Always remove your hearing
protection as soon as the engine stops.
WARNING! Never use a machine that has
faulty safety equipment! Carry out the
inspection, maintenance and service
routines listed in this section.
GLOVES
Gloves should be worn when necessary, e.g., when fitting
cutting attachments.

Throttle lock
The throttle lock is designed to prevent accidental operation
of the throttle control. When you press the lock (A) (i.e. when
you grasp the handle) it releases the throttle control (B).
When you release the handle the throttle control and the
throttle lock both move back to their original positions. This
movement is controlled by two independent return springs.
This arrangement means that the throttle control is
automatically locked at the idle setting.
HEARING PROTECTION
Wear hearing protection that provides adequate noise
reduction.
EYE PROTECTION
Always wear approved eye protection. If you use a visor then
you must also wear approved protective goggles. Approved
protective goggles must comply with standard ANSI Z87.1 in
the USA or EN 166 in EU countries.Visors must comply with
standard EN 1731.
Stop switch
Use the stop switch to switch off the engine.
BOOTS
Wear sturdy, non-slip boots.
Cutting attachment guard
This guard is intended to prevent loose objects from being
thrown towards the operator. The guard also protects the
operator from accidental contact with the cutting attachment.
CLOTHING
Wear clothes made of a strong fabric and avoid loose clothing
that can catch on twigs and branches. Always wear heavy,
long pants. Do not wear jewellery, shorts sandals or go
barefoot. Secure hair so it is above shoulder level.
