executing these processes, reassume the correct working position before switching on the
equipment.
13. Do not use metallic cutting reels or saw blades. Note that the equipment remains in operation
for a few seconds after the switch is released.

- Refuelling the equipment,
- Not using it,
- Leaving it unattended,
- Cleaning it,
- Transporting it from one location to another,
- Removing or replacing the cutting device and manually adjusting the length of the
cutting thread.
When the metal cutting blade is used, there is a risk of recoil if the blade edge hits an obstacle

• Hold the equipment firmly in both hands.
• Ensure that there are no obstacles on the ground and do not use the metal cutting disk near
fences, metal posts or similar.
