To reduce the risks of RSI/ CTS do the following:
• Avoid using your wrist in a bent, extended or twisted
position. Instead try to maintain a straight wrist
position. Also, when grasping, use your whole hand,
not just the thumb and index finger.
• Take periodic breaks to minimize repetition and rest
your hands.
• Reduce the speed and force with which you do the
repetitive movement.
• Do exercise to strengthen the hand and arm muscles.
• Immediately stop using all your power equipment and
consult a doctor if you feel tingling, numbness or pain
in the fingers, hands, wrists or arms. The sooner RSI/
CTS is diagnosed, the more likely permanent muscle
damage can be prevented.
SAFE OPERATING PRACTICES
Be very careful when operating the multi-tool over uneven or
rough ground, and when the ground is wet and slippery.
Watch out for hidden obstacles that could cause you to
stumble. Operate the multi-tool only under conditions with
good visibility. Do not operate the multi-tool where you cannot
see what it is cutting.
WARNING!
Rotating cutting lines can cause serious
abrasions and cuts, and blades can cut deeply.
• Keep away from the cutting lines or blade whenever
the engine is running.
• Always stop the engine, and be sure the cutting line
head has stopped turning, before inspecting or
handling the cutting lines or blade.
THROWN DEBRIS
The multi-tool will throw debris in the direction of blade
movement at the point of contact.The cutting line head or
blade on the Qualcut multi-tool rotates anti-clockwise as
viewed from the operator's position, so tilting the cutting line
head to the right will throw debris away from you, and tilting to
the left will throw debris towards you.
If the cutting line head or blade is held parallel to the ground,
debris will scatter in all directions, and there will be greater
friction which will wear out the cutting line or blade sooner.
When operating the trimmer near a hard surface such as a
wall, work from an angle where debris that strikes the hard
surface will ricochet away from you.
Gravel, loose stones, etc. can be picked up by the nylon
cutting lines or blade and thrown many feet with enough force
to cause serious personal injury and/or property damage.
Before crossing graveled areas, release the throttle trigger to
stop the cutting line head or blade.
WARNING!
Keep all bystanders, especially children
and pets at least 15m from the operating area.
BLADE THRUST (KICKBACK)
Blade thrust (kickback) is the sudden, forceful, and
un-controlled movement of a blade-equipped multi-tool that
may occur if the blade binds in the cut or strikes a solid object.
It throws the multi-tool in the direction opposite blade rotation
at the point of contact, and the jolt received by the operator
can result in further loss of control.
