OPERATION

Always use 2 hands to

hold unit

Stop unit immediately if

sudden vibration occurs

• ALWAYS use extra care to maintain footing around

sloping, hilly, or slippery ground, and around uneven

surfaces like steps, raised walkways, edging, and

curbs.

• ALWAYS hold the unit firmly with two hands, with

thumbs wrapped around the handles for a secure,

comfortable grip. Left/front handle in left hand and

right/rear handle in right hand.

• ALWAYS cut using a stable stance, with both feet

on the ground.

• NEVER stand on a ladder or other temporary

platform. You can fall or slip, and injure yourself or

others.

• NEVER allow others near the cutting/work area, or

to hold material you are cutting.

• ALWAYS keep both hands on the unit to maintain

control.

• ALWAYS keep the muffler exhaust directed away

from your body.

• NEVER touch the muffler, muffler cover, or surround-

ing area. Allow the unit to cool down before per-

forming any maintenance in the muffler area.

• NEVER allow flammable debris such as dried

leaves and sticks to build up in the exhaust area.

Heat from operation can ignite these materials, and

cause fire.

• ALWAYS keep fingers, hands, and all other body

parts away from the cutting/work attachment and

cutting/work area.

•

NEVER allow anyone to reach into the cutting/work

area for any reason while the unit is running.

• ALWAYS maintain a direct line of sight to the cut-

ting/work attachment and the area where cutting/

work is being performed. Be aware of what lies in

the path of the cutting/work attachment at all times.

• NEVER work in the dark or when visibility of the

work area is poor.

• ALWAYS be alert for changes in operation that

could signal a problem - sudden vibration, unusual

noise, the strong smell of fuel, or poor engine perfor-

mance, all require immediate attention. Stop the

unit and correct any problems before resuming

cutting.

• NEVER carry unit around the work site while the

blade or attachment is rotating. ALWAYS shut the

engine off and let the blade or attachment stop

before lifting the unit and moving to a new position.
