Shows maximum shaft speed. Do not use the
cutting attachment whose max rpm is below the

Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade
contacts a solid object in the critical area. A
dangerous reaction may occur causing the entire
unit and operator to be thrust violently. This
reaction is called BLADE THRUST. As a result, the
operator may lose control of the unit which may
cause serious or fatal injury. Blade thrust is more
likely to occur in areas where it is difficult to see
the material to be cut.
Indicate handle location. Do not attach handle
above this point.
Before using your machine
• Read the manual carefully.
• Check that the cutting equipment is correctly assembled and adjusted.
• Start the unit and check the carburetor adjustment. See "Maintenance".
