7. Disengage clutch lever before starting the engine.
8. Start the engine carefully according to instruc-
tions and with feet well away from the tines.
9. The tines remain stationary when the clutch is dis-
engaged. If it does not, have unit adjusted by a
qualified repair personnel.
10. Always operate the machine from behind, never
pass or stand in front of the machine when the
engine is running.
11. Always hold the unit with both hands when oper-
ating. Keep a firm grip on the handlebars.
12. Be aware that the machine may unexpectedly
bounce upward or jump forward if the tines should
strike buried obstacles such as large stones,
roots, or stumps.
13. If the unit strikes a foreign object, stop the engine,
disconnect the spark plug, thoroughly inspect the
machine for any damage, and repair the damage
before restarting and operating the machine.
14. Use extreme caution when in reverse ornpulling
the machine towards you.
15. Do not overload the machine capacity by tilling
too deep in a single pass or at too fast a rate.
16. Never operate the tiller at high transport speeds
on hard or slippery surfaces.
17. Be careful when tilling in hard ground. The tines
may catch in the ground and propel the tiller for-
ward. If this occurs, let go of the handlebars and
do not restrain the machine.
18. Use caution when tilling near fences, buildings
and underground utilities. Rotating tines can
cause property damage or personal injury.
19. Exercise extreme caution when operating on or
crossing gravel drives, walks, or roads. Stay alert
for hidden hazards or traffic. Do not carry passen-
gers.
20. Never leave the operating position when the en-
gine is running.
21. Always stop the engine when tilling is delayed or
when walking from one tilling location to another.
22. Keep unit clean of vegetation and other materi-
als. They may become lodged between the tines.
Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug
before unclogging the tines.
Repairs
Use only the accessory and spare parts recommend-
ed by the manufacturer. If the machine suers a fail-
ure despite our quality controls and your care, have
repair work carried out only by a trained electrician.
Environmental protection
Do not simply dispose of the machine, accessories
and packaging in the dustbin, but ensure that it can
be recycled. A small amount of effort on your part can
do a great deal of good for our environment.

Residual risks
Even though using the machine properly there will
always remain a residual risk which can't be eliminat-
ed. From the type and construction of the machine
following dangers can occur:
- Ejection of parts of the cutting material
- Damage of hearing if no prescribed hearing pro-
tection is worn
- Inhalation of the cutting material
- This electric tool generates an electromagnetic
field during operation. This field can impair active
or passive medical implants under certain con-
ditions. In order to prevent the risk of serious or
deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with
medical implants consult with their physician and
the manufacturer of the medical implant prior to
operating the tool.
