Personal protective equipment
The clothing worn should be functional and appropriate, i.e. it should be tight-–
tting but not cause hindrance. Do not wear either jewelry or clothing which
could become entangled with bushes or shrubs.
In order to avoid either head-, eye-, hand- or foot injuries as well as to protect–
your hearing the following protective equipment and protective clothing must
be used during operation.
Always wear a helmet where there is a risk of falling objects. The protective–
helmet (1) is to be checked at regular intervals for damage and is to be
replaced at the latest after 5 years. Use only approved protective helmets.
The visor (2) of the helmet (or alternatively goggles) protects the face from–
ying debris and stones. During operation always wear goggles, or a visor to
prevent eye injuries.
Wear adequate noise protection equipment to avoid hearing impairment (ear–
muffs (3), ear plugs etc.).
The work overalls (4) protect against ying stones and debris.–
We strongly recommend that the user wears work overalls.
Gloves (5) are part of the prescribed equipment and must always be worn–
during operation.
When using the equipment, always wear sturdy shoes (6) with a non-slip–
sole. This protects against injuries and ensures a good footing.

Start the Petrol String Trimmer only in accordance with the instructions.–
Do not use any other methods for starting the engine!–
Use the Petrol String Trimmer and the tools only for such applications as–
specied.
Only start the engine, after the entire assembly is done. Operation of the–
device is only permitted after all the appropriate accessories are attached!
Before starting make sure that the cutting attachment has no contact with–
hard objects such as branches, stones etc. as the cutting attachment will
revolve when starting.
The engine is to be switched off immediately in case of any engine problems.–
Should the cutting attachment hit stones or other hard objects, immediately–
switch off the engine and inspect the cutting attachment.
Inspect the cutting attachment at short regular intervals for damage (detection–
of hairline cracks by means of tapping-noise test).
If the equipment gets heavy impact or fall, check the condition before–
continuing work. Check the fuel system for fuel leakage and the controls
and safety devices for malfunction. If there is any damage or doubt, ask our
authorized service center for the inspection and repair.
During operation always hold the Petrol String Trimmer with both hands.–
Never hold the Petrol String Trimmer with one hand during use.
Always ensure a safe footing.
Operate the equipment in such a manner as to avoid inhalation of the exhaust–
gases. Never run the engine in enclosed rooms (risk of gas poisoning).
Carbon monoxide is an odorless gas.
Switch off the engine when resting and when leaving the equipment–
unattended, and place it in a safe location to prevent danger to others or
damage to the machine.
Never put the hot Petrol String Trimmer onto dry grass or onto any–
combustible materials.
Always install the approved cutting attachment guard onto the equipment–
before starting the engine. Otherwise contact with the cutting attachment may
cause serious injury.
All protective installations and guards supplied with the machine must be–
used during operation.
Never operate the engine with faulty exhaust mufer.–
Shut off the engine during transport.–
Ensure safe position of the equipment during car transportation to avoid fuel–
leakage.
When transporting, ensure that the fuel tank is completely empty.–
When unloading the equipment from the truck, never drop the Engine to the–
ground or this may severely damage the fuel tank.
Except in case of emergency, never drop or cast the equipment to the ground–
or this may severely damage the equipment.
Remember to lift the entire equipment from the ground when moving the–
equipment. Dragging the fuel tank is highly dangerous and will cause damage
and leakage of fuel, possibly causing re.
Refueling
Shut off the engine during refueling, keep away from open ames and do not –
smoke.
Avoid skin contact with mineral oil products. Do not inhale fuel vapor. Always–
wear protective gloves during refueling. Change and clean protective clothing
at regular intervals.
Take care not to spill either fuel or oil in order to prevent soil contamination–
(environmental protection). Clean the Petrol String Trimmer immediately after
fuel has been spilt.
Avoid any fuel contact with your clothing. Change your clothing instantly if–
fuel has been spilt on it (to prevent clothing catching re).
Inspect the fuel cap at regular intervals making sure that it can be securely–
fastened and does not leak.
Carefully tighten the fuel tank cap. Change location to start the engine (at–
least 3 meters away from the place of refueling).
Never refuel in closed rooms. Fuel vapors accumulate at ground lever (risk of–
explosions).
Only transport and store fuel in approved containers. Make sure the fuel–
stored is not accessible to children.

Method of operation
Only use in good light and visibility. During the winter season beware of–
slippery or wet areas, ice and snow (risk of slipping). Always ensure a safe
footing.
Never cut above waist height.–
Never stand on a ladder.–
Never climb up into trees to perform cutting operation.–
Never work on unstable surfaces.–
Remove sand, stones, nails etc. found within the working range.–
Before commencing cutting, the cutting attachment must have reached full–
working speed.
Swing the Petrol String Trimmer evenly.–
If grass or branches get caught between the cutting attachment and guard,
always stop the engine before cleaning. Otherwise unintentional attachment
rotation may cause serious injury.
Take a rest to prevent loss of control caused by fatigue. We recommend to–
take a 10 to 20-minute rest every hour.
Cutting attachments
Never use metal blades including metal multi-piece pivoting chains and ail –
blades. Otherwise blade contact may cause serious injury.
Vibration
People with poor circulation who are exposed to excessive vibration may–
experience injury to blood vessels or the nervous system. Vibration may
cause the following symptoms to occur in the ngers, hands or wrists: “Falling
asleep” (numbness), tingling, pain, stabbing sensation, alteration of skin color
or of the skin. If any of these symptoms occur, see a physician!
To reduce the risk of “white nger disease”, keep your hands warm during –
operation and well maintain the equipment and accessories.
Maintenance instructions
Have your equipment serviced by our authorized service center, always using–
only genuine replacement parts. Incorrect repair and poor maintenance can
shorten the life of the equipment and increase the risk of accidents.
The condition of the equipment, in particular of the cutting attachment of the–
protective devices must be checked before commencing work.
Turn off the engine and remove spark plug connector when replacing cutting–
attachments, and also when cleaning the cutter or cutting attachment.
Pay attention to the environment. Avoid unnecessary throttle operation for–
less pollution and noise emissions. Adjust the carburetor correctly.
Clean the equipment at regular intervals and check that all screws and nuts–
are well tightened.
Never service or store the equipment in the vicinity of naked ames.–
Always store the equipment in locked rooms and with an emptied fuel tank.–
Observe the relevant accident prevention instructions issued by the relevant trade associations and by the insurance companies.
Do not perform any modications to the equipment as this will endanger your safety.
The performance of maintenance or repair work by the user is limited to those activities as described in the instruction manual. All other work is
to be done by an Authorized Service Agent. Use only genuine spare parts and accessories released and supplied by MAKITA.
Use of non-approved accessories and tools means increased risk of accidents.
MAKITA will not accept any liability for accidents or damage caused by the use of non-approved cutting attachments and xing devices of cutting
attachments, or accessories.
