Tamas - if you look for threads about mast bumping and negative G you should get a decent explanation.

As AC states, the rotor pulls the fuselage around but negative (or less than positive) G can allow a teetering head rotor to exceed its normal flapping limits with regard to the rotor mast because the fuselage isn't obediently following the rotor disc any more.
