GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The machine
s vibration damping system reduces the transfer
of vibration between the engine unit/cutting equipment and
the machine
s handle unit.
Regularly check the vibration damping units for cracks or
deformation. Check that the vibration damping element is
undamaged and securely attached.
Mufer
The mufer is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum
and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user.
A mufer tted with a catalytic converter is also designed to
reduce harmful exhaust gases.
In countries that have a warm and dry climate there is a
signicant risk of re. We therefore t certain mufers with a
spark arrestor mesh. Check whether the mufer on your
machine is tted with this kind of mesh.
For mufers it is very important that you follow the instructions
on checking, maintaining and servicing your machine.
Never use a machine that has a faulty mufer.
Regularly check that the mufer is securely attached to the
machine.
If the mufer on your machine is tted with a spark arrestor
mesh this must be cleaned regularly. A blocked mesh will
cause the engine to overheat and may lead to serious
damage.
