Proper Clothing
Wear snug fitting, durable clothing;
• Pants should have long legs, shirts with long sleeves.

• DO NOT WEAR TIES, SCARVES, JEWELRY, or clothing with loose or hanging items that could become
entangled in moving parts or surrounding growth.

Hot Humid Weather
Heavy protective clothing can increase operator fatigue which may lead to heat stroke. Schedule heavy work
for early morning or late afternoon hours when temperatures are cooler.
The ignition components of this machine generate an electromagnetic field during operation which
may interfere with some pacemakers. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury, persons with
pacemakers should consult with their physician and the pacemaker manufacturer before operating
this machine.
In the absence of such information, ECHO does not recommend the use of ECHO
products by anyone who has a pacemaker.
Vibration and Cold
It is believed that a condition called Raynaud’s Phenomenon,
which affects the fingers of certain individuals, may be brought
about by exposure to vibration and cold. Exposure to vibration
and cold may cause tingling and burning sensations, followed
by loss of color and numbness in the fingers. The following
precautions are strongly recommended, because the minimum
exposure, which might trigger the ailment, is unknown.
• Keep your body warm, especially the head, neck, feet, ankles,
hands, and wrists.
• Maintain good blood circulation by performing vigorous arm exercises during frequent work breaks, and
also by not smoking.
• Limit the hours of operation. Try to fill each day with jobs where operating the unit or other hand-held
power equipment is not required.
