Check that all connections are fitted firmly. Tighten the screws if necessary! In particular make sure that the cutter bar is
fitted correctly (see Chapter "Maintenance of the blade").
Always have the blade attachment screw tightened by a specialist workshop, since according to the applicable standard DIN
EN 60335, an insulation test must always be carried out following repairs or maintenance work to insulating components
(e.g. blade screws).
Make sure that all safety devices are fitted properly and are not damaged.
