4. Vibration
damping system
Your machine is equipped
with a vibration damping
system, which is designed
to give as vibration-free
and comfortable use as
possible.
Use of incorrectly wound
cord or incorrect cutting
equipment increases the
level of vibration.
The machine’s vibration
damping system reduces
the transfer of vibrations
between the engine unit/
cutting equipment and the
machine’s handle unit.

WARNING!
Over exposure to vibrations can result in
blood-vessel or nerve injury to persons
suffering with blood circulation problems.
Seek medical attention if you experience
physical symptoms that can be related to
over exposure to vibrations. Examples of
such symptoms are “numbness“, lack of
feeling, “tickling“, “pricking“, “pain“ lack of
or a reduction in normal strength, changes

These symptoms normally appear in the
