Working with the tool:

Keep your hands and feet
away from the tines while
working, especially when start-
ing up the tool – injury hazard!
• Observe any noise-prevention
regulations and local by-laws.
• Do not use the tool to chop up
stones or till lawn soil, as such
use may damage the tool.
• Do not use the tool in rain, foul
weather or damp surroundings
(such as near garden ponds or
swimming pools). Only use in
daylight or good lighting condi-
tions.
• Be sensible. Do not use the tool
if you are tired or easily distract-
ed, or after the use of alcohol or
medicines. Take a break as soon
as you need one.
• Make sure that you are standing
fi rmly when using the tool, espe-
cially on slopes. If working on a
slope, work along the slope, not
upwards or downwards. Be par-
ticularly careful when changing
direction on the slope. Do not
use the tool on excessively steep
slopes.
• If there is any danger of slipping
on sloped ground, have a second
person secure the tool with a
rod or cable. The second person
should stand up the slope at a
safe distance from the tool.
• Always hold the tool securely in
both hands while working with it.
• Make sure that the grips are dry
50
and clean. Be careful while mov-
ing backwards – danger of trip-
ping over!
• Take particular care when turn-
ing or raising the machine.
• If the chopping knife is blocked
by a foreign body, switch off the
equipment and disconnect at the
plug. Remove the foreign body
(e.g. root) before restarting the
equipment.
• Do not use the tool if it is dam-
aged, incomplete or altered
without the approval of the manu-
facturer. In particular, do not work
with the tool if guards or protection
fi ttings are damaged or missing.
• Do not overload the tool. Only
work in the performance range
stated. Do not use tools that do
not have suffi cient power for
heavy jobs. Do not use the tool
for any use other than that in-
tended by the manufacturer.
• Avoid damage to the tool. Do
not apply extra weight and do
not drag the tool over hard sur-
faces such as tiles or steps.
• Remove plants and root remains
regularly in the area of the drive
shaft. Thus, you avoid an overload
and damage the appliance.
• Watch out for special hazards
when working on diffi cult (Rocky,
hard or similar) soil.
Stopping work:
Warning! The tines will con-
tinue to turn for a few seconds
after you switch the tool off.
Wait until they have stopped
moving – injury hazard!
