GENERAL POWER TOOLS SAFETY WARNINGS Personal Safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
Power Tool Use and Care a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

GENERAL POWER TOOLS SAFETY WARNINGS
Service 1. Have your power tools serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that safety of the power tool is maintained. 2. For cable replacement, please contact the specified helpline for spare parts.
SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LAWN RAKER AND SCARIFIER Training Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the controls and the proper use of the machine. Preparation 1. Never allow people unfamiliar with these instructions or children to use the product. Local regulations can restrict the age of the operator. 2. Never operate the product while people, especially children, or pets are nearby. 3. Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people or their property. 4. Wear ear protection and safety glasses at all times while operating the product. 5. Always wear substantial footwear and long trousers while operating the product. Do not operate the product when barefoot or wearing open sandals. 6. Thoroughly inspect the area where the product is to be used and remove all stones, sticks, wires, bones and other foreign objects. 7. Before using, always visually inspect to see that the tines, bolts are not worn or damaged. Replace worn or damaged tines and bolts in sets to preserve balance. Operation 1. Operate the product only in daylight or in good artificial light. 2. Avoid operating the product in wet grass or take additional precautions to avoid slipping. 3. Always be sure of your footing on slopes. 4. Walk, never run. 5. Always work across the face of slopes, never up and down. 6. Exercise extreme caution when changing direction on slopes. 7. Do not operate the product on steep slopes. 8. Use extreme caution when reversing or pulling the product towards you. 9. Stop the tines if the product has to be tilted for transportation. Do not operate the tines when crossing surfaces other than grass, and when transporting the product to and from the working area. 10.

6
SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR LAWN RAKER AND SCARIFIER 12. Do not tilt the product when switching on the motor, except if the product has to be tilted for starting. In this case, do not tilt it more than absolutely necessary and lift only the part which is away from the operator. 13. Do not start the motor when standing in front of the discharge opening. 14. Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts. Keep clear of the discharge opening at all times. 15. Never pick up or carry a product while the motor is running. 16. Stop the motor and disconnect the product from the power supply: --before clearing blockages or unclogging the discharge opening; --before checking, cleaning or working on the product; -- after striking a foreign object. Inspect the product for damage and make repairs before restarting and operating the product; --if the product starts to vibrate abnormally (check immediately). --whenever you leave the product. 17. Never use the scarifier without the grass catcher bag securely fitted. Maintenance and storage 1. Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the product is in a safe working condition. 2. Allow the product to cool before storing in any enclosure. 3. Check the grass catcher frequently for wear or deterioration. 4. Examine the product regularly and replace worn or damaged parts for safety. Additional safety warnings 1. Warning! Beware of sharp tines. Tines continue to rotate after the motor is switched off. 2. Do not use the product if the cords are damaged or worn. 3. Do not to connect a damaged cord to the supply or touch a damaged cord before it is disconnected from the supply. A damaged cord can lead to contact with live parts. 4. Keep extension cords away from the tines. The tines can cause damage to the cords and lead to contact with live parts. 5. If operating a garden power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. It is recommended that appliances should be supplied via a residual current device (RCD) with a tripping current of not more than 30mA. Vibration and noise reduction To reduce the impact of noise and vibration emission, limit the time of operation, use low vibration and low-noise operating modes as well as wear personal protective equipment. Take the following points into account to minimize the vibration and noise exposure risks: 1. Only use the product as intended by its design and these instructions. 2. Ensure that the product is in good condition and well maintained. 3. Use correct application tools for the product and ensure they in good condition. 4. Keep tight grip on the handles/grip surface. 5. Maintain this product in accordance with these instructions and keep it well lubricated (where appropriate).
