Special satety warning

Grip the handles of the brush cutter firmly with both

hands. If you suspend the work, place the throttle
into the idling position.

Always be sure to maintain a steady, even posture
while working

Maintain the speed of the engine at the level re-
quired to perform cutting work and never raise the
speed of the engine above the necessary level.

If the grass gets caught in the blade during opera-
tion, or if you need to check the unit or refuel the
tank always be sure to turn off the engine.

If the blade touches a hard object like a stone im-
mediately stop the engine and check if something
is wrong with the blade. If so, replace the blade
with a new one.

If someone calls out while working, always be sure
to turn off the engine before turning around.

Never touch the spark plug or plug cord while
the engine is in operation. Doing so may result in
being subjected to an electrical shock.

Never touch the muffler, spark plug or other me

tallic parts of the engine while the engine is in
operation or immediately after shutting down the
engine. Doing so may result in serious burns.

When you finish cutting in one location and wish to

continue working in another spot, turn off the engi-
ne and turn the machine to have the blade facing
away from your body.

Check that the cutting attachment stopped turning
under the engine idle before starting to use the
machine.
