ENGLISH
• Make sure the warning sign on the back of the
shoulder harness is properly positioned for easy
viewing by others.
• Wearing hearing protection and engine noise may
prevent you from hearing others about to enter the
Safety Zone. Perform regular visual safety checks
of the area while cutting to help ensure a safe
work area.
Hidden Hazards
Blade contact with exposed or hidden hazards
(rocks, metal posts, metal stakes, sprinkler heads,
etc.) can result in sudden loss of control, and injury
from blade contact or flying debris. Blade damage
can result in breakage, and serious injury caused
by flying blade fragments. Cutting with a dull or
damaged blade increases risk of kick out and loss of
control.
• ALWAYS
check area for hidden hazards before
starting. Remove hazard, or mark location
of hazard to prevent striking it while using
brushcutter.
• ALWAYS
use extreme care when cutting near
ground hazards and other obstacles.
• ALWAYS
stop unit immediately and check for blade damage if an object
is struck. Do not use blade if cracked, bent, chipped, or dulled by impact.
Replace blade before resuming cutting.
• STOP
engine immediately if sudden vibration occurs, and check blade for
damage before using.
Unit Configuration - Blade Use
Blade use requires specific unit configuration. Blade must be matched to
application requirements. See Blade Configuration Chart page 14.
• NEVER
use a metal blade with a plastic debris
shield.
• NEVER
use a metal blade on a Model GT (Curved
Shaft) Grass Trimmer
• NEVER
use an edging blade, circular saw blade,
or any other type of saw blade on an SRM/PAS/SB
unit. Only use brushcutter blades approved for use
on your model brushcutter.
• NEVER
use a dull or damaged blade.
• ALWAYS
use blade only for application for which it was intended
• ALWAYS
use the correct front handle for the type of blade being used.
