1.1 Introduction
Dear customer,
Congratulations to your purchasing decision. With your AS brush cutter, you have received a reliable, high-quality machine that has
proven itself during years of operation. We always strive to further improve our machines. Wherever you want to cut any tall grass, weeds
and scrub, either on meadows, in orchards, on horse pastures or community grounds, you may count on the reliable assistance of your new
brush cutter. The AS shrub cutter is a specialist in such tasks. It cuts large fields with dense and tall grass in the shortest time, handling
uneven surfaces as easily as slopes and embankments.
To be able to work with your brush cutter safely, get familiar with its control, please. For this we have developed these operating
instructions for you. Definitely read the safety instructions in the next chapter! They are to protect your health. In the next chapters, you
will learn everything critical about your AS brush cutter, including its use and care. Your AS brush cutter will only perform best and work for
many years if you treat it properly and follow the few maintenance and care instructions. If you have any questions about your brush cutter,
contact your dealer or directly AS-Motor, please. We are happy to help you, and we are also grateful for suggestions for improvement.
One more wish: Be nice to your neighbours and cut grass only on weekdays between 07:00 a.m. and 01:00 p.m. and between 03:00
and 07:00 p.m. According to the noise protection regulations of 1 August, 1987, it is not allowed to cut grass on Sundays, holidays and
outside of the specified times. Different regional regulations may apply as well (siesta). We now wish you a pleasant work with your AS
brush cutter.
