• Before using the trimmer, check that your cutting
path is free from sticks, stones, wire and any other
dangerous objects that may cause damage or be
thrown from the device.
• Only use the trimmer in the correct position, with
the cutting line near the ground. Never switch it on
in any other position.
• Switch on the appliance only when hands and feet
are at a safe distance from the cutting line.
• Avoid any body contact with the cutting line while
the trimmer is running.
• Do not work on steep slopes; be sure of your
footing. Be aware that freshly cut grass is damp
and slippery.
• Only use the correct cutting line. Never use metal
cutting line or fishing line.
• After extending new cutting line, always return the
appliance to its normal operating position before
switching on.
• Take care to keep the mains cable away from the
cutting line. Always be aware of the position of the
cable.
