Safety Notes for Garden Tool
Operation
The operator must use the product in
u
accordance with the regulations. The
local conditions must be taken into
account. When working, pay atten-
tion to other people, especially to
children.
Never allow children, persons with
u
physical, sensory or mental limita-
tions or a lack of experience and/or
knowledge and/or people unfamiliar
with these instructions to use the
product. Local regulations may re-
strict the age of the operator.
Children should be supervised to en-
u
sure that they do not play with the
product.
Application
When working with the machine,
u
always hold it firmly with both
hands and provide for a secure
stance. The garden tool is guided
more secure with both hands.
Always wait until the machine has
u
come to a complete stop before plac-
ing it down.
Never operate the machine with a
u
defective protection guard/cover or
without safety device. Ensure that
these are properly mounted. Never
use the garden tool when incomplete
or after unauthorised changes.
Bosch Power Tools
Never operate the machine if the
u
cord is damaged or worn.
Never replace non-metallic cutting
u
elements with metal cutting ele-
ments.
Never repair the garden tool yourself
u
unless you are qualified to do so.
Other persons and animals should
u
remain or be kept a suitable distance
away when using the garden tool.
The operator is responsible for third
parties in the work area.
Wait until the cutting head has com-
u
pletely stopped before touching it.
The cutting head continues to rotate
after the trimmer is switched off; a
rotating cutting head can cause in-
jury.
Work only in daylight or in good arti-
u
ficial light.
Avoid operating the trimmer in bad
u
weather conditions especially when
there is a risk of lightning.
Operating the trimmer in wet grass
u
decreases the efficiency of perform-
ance.
When transporting, switch the
u
garden tool off and pull the mains
plug.
Always ensure a safe working posi-
u
tion when working with the trimmer.
Always keep your hands and feet at a
safe distance from rotating parts.
Take care when placing product on
u
floor, as it may become a trip hazard.
Remove the mains plug before repla-
u
cing the spool.
