•  Do not pull machine backwards unless 

absolutely necessary.  Always look 
down and behind before and while mov-
ing backwards.

•  Do not operate the machine without 

proper guards, plates or other safety 
protective devices in place.

•  See manufacturer’s instructions for 

proper operation and installation of 
accessories. Only use accessories ap-
proved by the manufacturer.

•  Never use blades, wire, or fl ailing devices. 

This unit is designed for line trimmer use 
only. Use of other ac ces so ries or attach-
ments will increase the risk of injury.

•  Stop the rotating trimmer head when 

crossing gravel drives, walks, or roads. 
Wait for the cutting lines to stop rotating.

•  Stop the engine (motor) whenever you 

leave the equipment and allow it to cool, 
before cleaning, repairing or inspecting 
the unit. Be sure the trimmer head and 
all moving parts have stopped.

•  Operate only in daylight or good artifi cial 

light.

•  Do not operate the machine while under 

the infl uence of alcohol or drugs.

•  Never operate machine in wet grass.  Al-

ways be sure of your footing: keep a fi rm 
hold on the handle and walk; never run.

•  If the equipment should start to vibrate 

abnormally, stop the engine (motor) and 
check immediately for the cause.  Vibra-
tion is generally a warning of trouble.

•  Always wear safety goggles or safety 

glasses with side shields when op er at-
 ing machine.

II.  SLOPE OPERATION

Slopes are a major factor related to slip and 
fall accidents which can result in severe injury.  
All slopes require extra caution.  If you feel 
uneasy on a slope, do not trim it.

DO:

•  Trim across the face of slopes: never up 

and down.  Exercise extreme caution 
when changing direction on slopes.

•  Remove obstacles such as rocks, tree 

limbs, etc.

•  Watch for holes, ruts, or bumps. Tall 

grass can hide obstacles.

DO NOT:

•  Do not trim near drop-offs, ditches or 

embankments.  The operator could lose 
footing or balance.

•  Do not trim excessively steep slopes.
•  Do not trim on wet grass. Reduced foot-

ing could cause slipping.

III.  CHILDREN

Tragic accidents can occur if the operator 
is not alert to the presence of children. 

 

Chil dren are often attracted to the ma chine 
and the trimming activity.  Never assume 
that children will remain where you last 
saw them.
•  Keep children out of the trimming area 

and under the watchful care of another 
responsible adult.

•  Be alert and turn machine off if children 

enter the area.

•  Before and while moving backwards, 

look behind and down for small chil dren. 

•  Never allow children to operate the 

machine.

•  Use extra care when approaching blind 

corners, shrubs, trees, or other objects 
that may obscure vision.

IV.  SERVICE

•  Use extra care in handling gasoline and 

other fuels.  They are fl ammable and 
vapors are explosive.

 

-  Use only an ap proved con tain er.

  -  Never remove gas cap or add fuel
    with the engine running.  Allow

 en 

gine to cool before refueling.

  Do not smoke.

  -  Never refuel the machine in doors.
  -  Never store the machine or fuel

 con 

tain er inside where there is an

    open fl ame, such as a water heat er.
  -  Move away from fueling site before
  starting 

engine.

•  Never run a machine inside a closed 

area.

•  Never make adjustments or repairs with 

the engine (motor) running. Disconnect 
the spark plug wire, and keep the wire 
away from the plug to prevent ac ci den tal 
starting.

•  Keep nuts and bolts, especially trimmer 

head and engine bolts, tight and keep 
equipment in good condition.

•  Never tamper with safety devices.  

Check their proper operation regularly.

•  Keep machine free of grass, leaves, or 

other debris buildup.  Clean oil or fuel 
spillage.  Allow machine to cool before 
cleaning or storing.

•  Stop and inspect the equipment if you 

strike an object.  Repair, if necessary, 
before restarting.

•  Do not change the engine governor set-

ting or overspeed the engine.

•  Clean and replace safety and in struc tion 

decals as necessary.
