							Each element of this machine is a potential safe-
ty hazard if used improperly or poorly main-
tained.
We recommend that special attention is paid to
the sections starting with the following headings:
or 
These give details or further
information on what has already been said, and
are aimed at preventing damage to the machine
or causing damage.
Non-observance will
result in the risk of injury to oneself or others.
Non-observance will
result in the risk of serious injury or death to
oneself or others.
A) TRAINING
1.
Read the instructions in this manual carefully. 
Before using the trimmer, the operator must be
familiar with the controls and know how to stop
the motor quickly. The operator must also know
how to use it correctly.
2.Use the trimmer for the purpose it was
designed for, i.e.:
–Cutting grass with a Nylon line (e.g. around the
edges of lawns, flower beds, walls, fences and
small grassy areas to tidy the areas that have
been cut with a lawnmower). 
Any other use may be dangerous or result in the
deterioration of the machine. 
Do not replace the head with nylon line with
other parts such as metal lines, disks, etc…
3.Never let children or people who have not
read the instructions use the trimmer.
Locals laws may set a minimum age for the user. 
4.Do not use the trimmer:
–When animals or especially children are in the
vicinity. Always ensure that any other people
present are at least 15 metres away from the
machine. The trimmer is designed for use by
one person at a time.
–If the user has taken medicine, alcohol or
drugs that may slow reflexes, impair alertness
and/or vision.
–If the operator is tired or unwell.
!DANGER!
!WARNING!
IMPORTANT
NOTE
–If any of the safety devices, such as the head
or exhaust silencer guard are not in place or
are damaged. 
–If the safety device is not the specific device
for that cutting machine. If a head with a nylon
line is used, ensure that the line-cutting blade
is in place so that the line is cut to the correct
length. 
–For shoulder-mounted trimmers: with a sys-
tem or an accessory other than the flexible
shaft that comes with the trimmer.
5.Do not modify the trimmer: this may jeopar-
dise operator safety by exposing him/her to
accidents and serious injury.
6.The owner or user is responsible for any acci-
dents or risks run by third parties or their pos-
sessions.
B) PREPARATION
1.
Do not use the trimmer when barefoot or
wearing sandals. Do not use the trimmer with
baggy clothes that could get caught on branch-
es or in the rotating tool. 
While the machine is in use, the operator must
wear long trousers, boots or safety shoes with
slip-proof soles, goggles or a protective visor to
protect against flying objects, gloves, (preferably
in leather) and earmuffs or a soundproof helmet.
To protect the head, a safety helmet must be
worn in areas at risk from falling objects (branch-
es, stones etc.).
2.The area to be cut must be inspected metic-
ulously so that all foreign bodies that could be
thrown up by the machine (stones, pieces of
iron, bones, etc.) can be removed. 
3.Petrol is highly inflammable. 
–Store the fuel in purpose-made canisters.
–Fill up the tank outdoors only. Do not smoke
either when performing this operation or any
other that involves handling fuel.  
–Never remove the petrol tank cap or fill it up
while the motor is in operation or while it is still
hot.
–Do not start the machine if the tank is over-
flowing with fuel: if fuel is spilt, remove the
trimmer from the area and do not light flames
until the fuel has evaporated and the vapours
have dissipated.
–Move at least 3 metres from the filling point
before starting up the machine. 
–Close the tank and the container properly by
ensuring that the caps are on tight. 24
SAFETY MEASURESEN
SAFETY MEASURES 
						

							4.Replace the exhaust silencers if they are
faulty.
5.Each time the brush cutter is used, a general
check must be carried out on the condition of
the equipment, cutting unit, guards and fasten-
ing elements before switching it on, to ensure
that the parts are not worn, damaged or loose.
Always check that the throttle lever and “STOP”
button work correctly. 
Check that the lever that blocks the throttle
(safety lever) works correctly; the throttle should
only work when the safety lever on the upper
side of the handgrip is pressed simultaneously.
6.Check that the handles and the harness
attachment are in the correct position and that
the machine is well balanced. 
7.Ensure that the “minimum revs” speed is set
correctly so that the machine stops running
when the throttle is released.
C) USE
1.
Do not start the motor indoors or in poorly
ventilated areas where toxic carbon monoxide
fumes can accumulate.
2.Work in daylight only.
3.Wherever possible, do not use the machine
on wet ground. 
4.While working, remain at a safe distance
away from the cutting tool. This distance
depends on the harness connection point.
5.Always walk. Never run or stand in an unsta-
ble position. Be careful of obstacles such as
stones, tree stumps etc. which the operator
could trip over. 
6.Do not use the machine on slopes that could
put the operator at risk. Mind your step when
working on a slope and always work in a stable
position. Always use the cutter on the flat. Never
use it while walking up or down a slope. 
7.It is the user’s responsibility to assess the
potential risks of the work area and to take all the
necessary precautions to ensure his/her safety.
This is especially important when working on
slopes, unstable, slippery or moving ground.
8.Never adjust the motor timing so that it
exceeds its standard running speed.
9.Before starting the motor, ensure that anyone
in the vicinity is at a safe distance away (at least15 metres) from the machine, that the cutting
tool is not touching the ground and that the
machine is stable.
10.When the tool rotates, it may throw up
objects from the ground. Keep a safe distance of
at least 15 metres between the machine and
people or animals.
Do not use the trimmer near vehicles or anything
else that might be damaged by flying objects.
11.Start up the motor carefully in accordance
with the user’s instructions, keeping well away
from the cutting tool.
12.Stop the engine and disconnect the spark
plug wire in the following cases:
–Before carrying out any work on the cutting
system.
–Before cleaning, checking, adjusting or repair-
ing the edge trimmer.
Only adjustments to the carburettor and the min-
imum setting are made with the engine running.
During these operations, work with the drive
shaft fitted. Also ensure that the equipment does
not come into contact with any object and that
the edge trimmer is in a stable position.
–After hitting a foreign object, inspect the cut-
ting system and the drive shaft to check that
there is no damage. Make any repairs neces-
sary before using the edge trimmer again.
–If the edge trimmer starts to shake in an irreg-
ular manner, look for the cause of the vibra-
tions and find a solution.
13.Stop the engine in the following cases:
–Each time the edge trimmer has to be left
unsupervised.
–Before filling with fuel.
–During movement from one work area to
another.
14.Do not use the edge trimmer continuously,
for lengthy times.
Pause now and again, switching off the engine.
D) MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE
1.
Ensure that all screws and bolts are tightly
fastened so that the machine can be used in
safety. Regular maintenance is essential for safe-
ty and a consistently high performance.
2.Do not use the machine if any parts are dam-
aged or worn. These parts must be replaced, not
repaired. Use original spare parts. 
The cutting tools must always bear the manu-
facturer’s mark as well as the maximum working
SAFETY MEASURES25EN 
						

							speed. Spare parts that are not the same quality
may damage the machine and jeopardise safety.
3.Wear thick gloves to remove and refit the cut-
ting tools.
4.Never store the trimmer with fuel in the tank
in an environment where petrol fumes could
come into contact with a flame, spark or sources
of extreme heat.
5.Store the trimmer in a clean and dry environ-
ment, out of the reach of children.
6.Let the motor cool down before it is stored in
any environment.
7.To reduce the risk of fire, clean any leaves,
grass or excess oil from the trimmer, especially
its motor, cooling fins, exhaust pipe and fuel
tank.
8.If the fuel tank has to be drained, do so out-
doors when the motor is cold. 
9.Do not add, remove or modify any machine
components.
This could cause:
–injuries to the operator and other people pres-
ent
–damage to the machine. Moreover, this invali-
dates the warranty.
10.To respect the environment do not dispose
of oil or petrol by pouring it into the drainage sys-
tem, gutters or into the ground. A local service
station can have oil and fuel recycled in total
safety. 26
