BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
1. The area within a perimeter of 50 feet (15m) of
the person using the product should be
considered a hazardous area into which no one
should enter. If necessary yellow warning rope,
warning signs should be placed around the
perimeter of the area. When work is to be
performed simultaneously by two or more
persons, care should also be taken to constantly
look around or otherwise check for the presence
and locations of other people working so as to
maintain a distance between each person
sufficient to ensure safety.
2. Check the condition of working area to avoid any
accident by hitting hidden obstacles such as
stumps, stones, cans, or broken grass.
Remove any obstacle before beginning work.
3. Inspect the entire unit for loose fasteners and
fuel leakage. Make sure that the cutting
attachment is properly installed and securely
fastened.
4. Be sure the debris guard is firmly attached in
place.
5. Always use the shoulder strap. Adjust the strap
for comfort before starting the engine. The strap
should be adjusted so the left hand can
comfortably hold the handlebar grip
approximately waist high.

STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Keep bystanders and animals at least 50feet
(15m) away from the operating point. If you are
approached, immediately stop the engine.
2. The product is equipped with a centrifugal clutch
mechanism, so the cutting attachment could
rotate as soon as the engine is started. When
starting the engine, place the product onto the
ground in a flat clear area and hold it firmly in
place so as to ensure that neither the cutting
part nor the throttle come into contact with any
obstacle when the engine starts.
