1.7.1. Prolonged use of hand held (operated)
machines will cause the user to feel the effects
of/from vibrations. These vibrations can lead
to white finger (Raynaud's phenomenon) or
carpal tunnel syndrome. This condition
reduces the ability of the hand to feel and
regulate temperature, causing numbness and
heat sensations and may cause nerve damage
and circulatory tissue death.
1.7.2. Not all factors that lead to white finger
disease are known, but cold weather, smoking
and other diseases that affect blood vessels
and blood circulation as well as large and long-
lasting impact of shocks are considered factors
in the formation of white finger. Note the
following to reduce the risk the white finger
and carpal tunnel syndrome:
1.7.2.1. Wear gloves and keep your hands
warm
1.7.2.2. Take regular breaks
1.7.3. All of the above precautions may help
reduce the risk of white finger disease but not
rule out carpal tunnel syndrome. Long-term
and regular users are therefore recommended
to observe the condition of your hands and
fingers. Seek medical attention immediately if
any of the above symptoms should occur.
1.8. Noise (where applicable).
1.8.1. The operating noise of the machine

cautious when wearing hearing protection
because your ability to hear alarm warnings
will be reduced.
1.8.2. Noise emissions for this equipment is
unavoidable. Carry out noisy work at approved
times and for certain periods. Limit the
working time to a minimum. For your personal

5.1. Trimming techniques.
If you are not familiar with this type of machine you should practice in a safe place.
5.1.1. ALWAYS clear the work area of cans, bottles, rocks, etc. Flying or whirling objects may
cause serious injury and damage to users or bystanders. If an object is accidentally flung out
from machine, immediately stop and check the machine
5.1.2. Always trim at high speeds.
5.1.3. Maneuverer the cutting head of the trimmer horizontally from one side to the other.
5.1.4. Keep cutting deck parallel with the ground.
5.1.5. DO NOT tilt the nylon cutting head during operation.
5.1.6. For correct cutting height carry out a test trim in advance in a test area. 5.1.7. NEVER
let the machine run with damaged or defective parts.
5.1.8. Trimmer is to be used for trimming grass only.
5.1.9. NEVER raise the nylon cutting head above knee height during operation. 5.1.10. DO NOT
use the machine on a slope or uneven ground or if there is the chance of slipping or losing the
stability. 5.1.11. NEVER over cut –instead cut short lengths then cut successively lower heights.
ALWAYS stop the machine before removing grass deposits. To prevent overheating of the drive
axle remove all tangled grass and weed fibre. The tangled grass and weed fibre/s prevent the
shaft from cooling properly. Remove grass deposits with a screwdriver or similar tool.
5.2. Trimming around trees.
5.2.1. Trim around trees carefully this will prevent damage to the tree, and tree bark.
5.2.3. Move around the tree in a clockwise direction. Approach grass/weeds with the tip of the
cutting cord.
5.2.4. To replace worn out cord refer to section
