SAFETY INSTR

UCTIONS

The po

wer switch lock remains depressed as long as the 

power switch is depressed.  When the grip on the handle is 
released both the power switch and power switch lock are 
reset. This movement is controlled by two independent return 
springs. This position results in the machine stopping and the 
power switch being locked.

Gradual star

t and overload protection 

The machine is equipped with electronically controlled 

gradual start and overload protection.

The engine starts to pulsate if the machine is loaded above a 
specific level. If the load is reduced the engine reverts to its 
normal state and cutting can resume.

The electronics will cut the current after a set time if the 
machine continues to be run with a pulsating engine. The 
higher load the faster the shutoff.

The electronics cut the current immediately if the blade jams.

Guar

d for the blade

This guard is fi

tted above the cutting blade and is designed to 

prevent parts of the blade or cutting fragments from being 
thrown towards the user.
