Safety devices
When working with the blade the metal guard hood
must be installed and when working with the cutting
spool the plastic guard hood must also be installed to
prevent objects being thrown out by the machine. The
integrated blade in the plastic guard hood
automatically cuts the line to the optimum length.
3. Proper use
The machine is designed for cutting lawns and
grassed areas. The operating instructions as supplied
by the manufacturer must be kept and referred to in
order to ensure that the machine is properly used and
maintained. Any use which is not expressly permitted
in the manual may result in damage to the machine
and place the user in serious danger. Be sure to
observe the restrictions in the safety instructions.
Please note that our equipment has not been
designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial
applications. Our warranty will be voided if the
equipment is used in commercial, trade or industrial
businesses or for equivalent purposes.
Important. Due to the high risk of bodily injury to the
user, the petrol power scythe must not be used to
carry out the following work: to clean (suck up) dirt
and debris off walkways, or to chop up tree or hedge
clippings. Moreover, the petrol power scythe may not
be used to level out high areas such as molehills. For
safety reasons, the petrol power scythe may not be
used as a drive unit for other work tools or toolkits of
any kind.

operating materials at the appropriate collection
point.
