RULES OF SAFE OPERATION
Use the shoulder harness at all times. Adjust both
harness and harness clamp on the unit so that the
unit hangs a few inches above ground level. The
cutting head and the metal debris shield should
be level in all directions. Harness the unit on the
right side of your body.
WARNING
DO NOT USE A BRUSH CUTTER FOR CUTTING
TREES
WARNING
DO NOT cut with a dull, cracked or damaged
metal blade. Before cutting growth, inspect
for obstructions such as boulders, metal stakes
or strands of wire from broken fences. If an
obstruction cannot be removed, mark its location
so that you can avoid it with the blade. Rocks and
metal will dull or damage a blade. Wires can catch
on the blade head and flap around or be thrown
into the air.
WARNING
Cutting with a Blade
DO NOT TOUCH
THESE TYPES OF OBJECTS WITH BLADE
WARNING
Scything Weeds
This is cutting by swinging the blade in a level arc.
It can quickly clear areas of field grass and weeds.
Scything should not be used to cut large, tough weeds
or woody growths.
Scything can be done in both directions, or just one
way which results in the debris being thrown away
from you.
NOTE: DO NOT use a brush blade to cut trees
which exceed a diameter of 1/2 to 3/4 inches.
NOTE: You will be hit by some debris if you scythe
in both directions.
