OPERATION
Correct handling of tool
WARNING:
Always position the tool on your
right-hand side. Correct positioning of the tool allows
for maximum control and will reduce the risk of seri-
ous personal injury caused by kickback.
WARNING:
Be extremely careful to maintain
control of the tool at all times. Do not allow the tool
to be deflected toward you or anyone in the work
vicinity. Failure to keep control of the tool could result
in serious injury to the bystander and the operator.
WARNING:
To avoid accident, leave more
than 15m (50 ft) distance between operators when
two or more operators work in one area. Also,
arrange a person to observe the distance between
operators. If someone or an animal enter the
working area, immediately stop the operation.
