A trimmer-brushcutter with a metal blade can cause serious
injuries if handled improperly.
Always use extreme care when
carrying or handling the equipment
to avoid contact with the cutting
edges of the blade. Use the optional
blade cover (A) when unit is not in
use.
Keep blades in protective packaging
until ready to install. Store blades
safely after removal to prevent injury
from accidental contact.
Use blade protectors to protect
blade teeth during unit
transportation.
Use Shoulder/Waist Harness
Use of the shoulder/waist harness is
recommended for ALL Trimmer/
brushcutter use, not just blade
operation. The shoulder/waist
harness when used in a trimming
operation with nylon line head
suspends the trimmer from the
operator's shoulder and reduces
operator fatigue.
During blade operation, the same fatigue reduction is
achieved. Safety to the operator is also enhanced by
reducing the possibility of blade contact with the operator's
hands and feet by restricting trimmer movement.
Make sure the warning sign on the back of the shoulder
harness can be read easily.
Note: In case of Emergency, disconnect the trimmer from the
harness.
