Chapter 1: General Safety Rules 

General Safety 

No list of warnings and cautions can be all-inclusive.  If situations occur that are not covered by this manual or your DR 
TRIMMER/MOWER SAFETY AND OPERATING manual, the operator must apply common sense and operate this BEAVER 
BLADE in a safe manner.  Contact us at www.DRpower.com or call 1-800-DR-OWNER (376-9637) for assistance. 

Operating this BEAVER BLADE safely is necessary to prevent or minimize the risk of death or serious injury.  Unsafe operation can 
create a number of hazards for you.  Always take the following precautions when using this BEAVER BLADE: 

 

Wear gloves and safety glasses when handling or sharpening the BEAVER BLADE.  Be sure your gloves fit properly and do not 
have loose cuffs or drawstrings. 

 

Keep in mind that the operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring to other people, their property, and 
themselves. 

 

Keep bystanders at least 100 feet away from your work area at all times. Objects can be thrown far from the machine and at 
great speeds. To be safe, do not operate the machine near small children or pets, and never allow children to operate the 
machine. Disengage the blade and stop the engine when another person approaches. 

 

Be sure all blade and wheel controls are DISENGAGED before attempting to start the engine. Engage and disengage the blade 
a few times to get used to it before cutting. 

 

Keep your hands and feet away from the blade, belts, chains, blade pulleys, and concealed areas while the engine is running. 
NEVER reach under the deck or grab hold of any part of the deck when the engine is running. 

 

ALWAYS keep the BEAVER BLADE maintained and in good condition. 

 

DO NOT use a BEAVER BLADE that is bent, fractured, dulled or damaged in any way. 

 

ALWAYS keep the BEAVER BLADE teeth sharpened. A dull blade may lead to improper cutting action, which could result in 
serious injury. 

 

ALWAYS replace the BEAVER BLADE when damaged or cannot be sharpened any further.  Using the BEAVER BLADE that is 
damaged or worn could result in serious injury. 

 

DO NOT pound the BEAVER BLADE into vegetation like an axe. Such use may seriously damage the BEAVER BLADE and 
machine, and could result in serious injury. 

 

DO NOT cut anything except wood and other vegetation. Cutting into dirt, rocks, metal and other materials could cause injury 
or damage to the operator and machine and will damage the blade teeth. 

 

Watch for traffic when cutting near roadways. 

 

NEVER use a BEAVER BLADE in any manner or for any purpose other than those recommended in these instructions. 

 

The BEAVER BLADE is designed to cut wood, brush and small trees ONLY! 

 

Before using your BEAVER BLADE, always inspect the work area before starting work, and remove any rocks, stones, glass, 
cans, wire, metal of any kind and any other foreign objects if possible.  Cutting over these objects 

could damage the 

BEAVER BLADE and cause injury.   

Avoid these hazards if you're unable to remove them. 

 

The BEAVER BLADE is not intended to be used as a replacement for a chain saw.
