20 ENGLISH
8. The cutting tool has to be equipped with the
guard. Never run the tool with damaged guards
or without guards in place!
9. Make sure there are no electrical cables, water
pipes, gas pipes etc. that could cause a hazard
if damaged by use of the tool.
Operation
1. In the event of an emergency, switch o󰀨 the
tool immediately.
2. If you feel any unusual condition (e.g. noise,
vibration) during operation, switch o󰀨 the tool
and disconnect the portable power pack from
the tool. Do not use the tool until the cause is
recognized and solved.
3. The cutting attachment continues to rotate for
a short period after turning the tool o󰀨. Don't
rush to contact the cutting attachment.
4. During operation, use the shoulder harness.
Keep the tool on your right side rmly.
5.

only, because the cutter blade may contact hid-
den wiring. Cutter blades contacting a "live" wire
may make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
21. Do not start the tool when the cutting tool is
tangled with cut grass.
22. Before starting the tool, be sure that the cut-
ting tool is not touching the ground and other
obstacles such as a tree.
23. During operation always hold the tool with
both hands. Never hold the tool with one hand
during use.
24. Do not use the tool when there is a risk of
lightning.
25. When you use the tool on muddy ground, wet
slope, or slippery place, pay attention to your
footing.
26. Avoid working in poor environment where
increased user fatigue is expected.
27. Do not use the tool in bad weather where visi-
bility is limited. Failure to do so may cause fall or
incorrect operation due to low visibility.
28. Do not submerge the tool into a puddle.
29.
Do not leave the tool unattended outdoors in the rain.
30. When wet leaves or dirt adhere to the suc-
tion mouth (ventilation window) due to rain,
remove them.
31. Do not use the tool in the snow.
