string trimmers and brushcutters.
 Physical Condition of the Operator. Do not operate
this product when tired, ill, or under the influence of
alcohol, drugs, or medication.
 Clothing Requirements. Always wear long heavy
pants, boots, and gloves. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing, jewelry, short pants, sandals, or go barefoot.
Secure hair so that it is above shoulder level to avoid
entanglement in moving parts.
 Protective Accessories Requirements. Wear eye
protection marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1
standards when operating this product. Wear hearing

 Condition of Trimmer Before Use. Inspect the
product before each use. Replace damaged parts.
Check for fuel leaks. Make sure all fasteners are
in place and secure. Replace cutting attachment
parts that are cracked, chipped, or damaged in any
way. Make sure the cutting attachment is properly
installed and securely fastened. Be sure the cutting
attachment shield is properly attached and in the
position recommended by the manufacturer. Use
only flexible, non-metallic line recommended by the
manufacturer. For example, never use wire or wire-
rope, which can break off and become a dangerous
projectile.
 Proper Stance. Keep firm footing and balance. Do
not overreach. Keep the cutting attachment below
waist level. Keep all parts of your body away from
the rotating cutting attachment and hot surfaces.
 Exhaust Gases. Never start or run the product inside
a closed room or building; breathing exhaust fumes
can cause illness or death.
 Fueling. Mix and pour fuel outdoors where there are
no sparks and flames. Slowly remove the fuel cap
only after stopping the engine. Do not smoke while
fueling or mixing fuel. Wipe spilled fuel from the
product. Move at least 30 ft. (9 m) away from the

as well as damage to the product.
entangled in the cutting attachment. Clear the area of
children, bystanders, and pets. At a minimum, keep
all children, bystanders, and pets outside a 50 ft.
(15 m) radius. Because there still may be a risk of
injury to bystanders from thrown objects, bystanders
should be encouraged to wear eye protection. If you
are approached while operating the product, stop the
engine and the cutting attachment.
 Dangerous Environments. To avoid falling, do not
use the product in damp or wet locations.
 Controlling the Product. During carburetor adjust-
ments the cutting attachment may spin. Therefore,
you should wear protective equipment and observe
all safety instructions when adjusting the carbure-
tor. For products equipped with a clutch, be sure the
cutting attachment stops turning when the engine
idles. When the product is turned off, make sure the
cutting attachment has stopped before setting down
the product.
 Use the Right Product. Use the product for the
intended purpose only.
 Condition of Brushcutter Before Use. The handles
shall be mounted according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Do not attach any blade to a product
without proper installation of all required parts. Fail-
ure to use the proper parts can cause the blade to fly
off and seriously injure the operator and/or bystand-
ers. Discard blades that are bent, warped, cracked,
broken, or damaged in any way.
 Use the Right Equipment. Always use the barrier
bar on the front handle and the shoulder strap with
the brushcutter.
 Blade Thrust. Blade thrust may occur when the
spinning blade contacts an object that it does not im-
mediately cut. A blade thrust can be violent enough
to cause the product and/or operator to be propelled
in any direction, and possibly lose control of the
product. Blade thrust can occur without warning if
the blade snags, stalls, or binds. This is more likely to
occur in areas where it is difficult to see the material
being cut.
 Stopping the Product. A coasting blade can cause
injury while it continues to spin after the engine is
stopped or throttle is released. Maintain proper con-
trol until the blade has completely stopped rotating.
