This label indicates the
minimum distance between
front handle and rear grip
per ANSI B175.3.
Always make sure the cutting at-
tachment tool is properly installed
and firmly tightened before opera-
tion.
Never use a cracked or warped
cutting attachment: replace it with
a serviceable one and make sure it
fits properly.
Keep the unit away from excessive
heat. Engine fuel is very flammable
and fire could lead to serious per-
sonal injury or property damage.
Make sure there are no missing or
loose fasteners, and that the stop
switch and throttle controls are
working properly.

Safety and Operation Information Labels:
Make sure all information labels are
undamaged and readable. Immediately
replace damaged or missing information
labels. New labels are available from your
local authorized Shindaiwa dealer.
WARNING!
Before starting the engine, make
sure the cutting attachment is not
contacting anything.
Always stop the engine immedi-
ately and check for damage if you
strike a foreign object or if the unit
becomes tangled. Do not operate
with broken or damaged equip-
ment.
Never transport the unit or set it
down with the engine running. An
engine that's running could be
accidently accelerated causing the
cutting attachment to rotate.
Make sure cutter safety guards are
in place when transporting the unit.
