GRASS TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS

■
Replace the string head if cracked, chipped, or
damaged in any way. Be sure the string head is
properly installed and securely fastened. Failure to do
so can cause serious injury.
■
Avoid using on wet grass.
■
Do not walk backwards when using the product.
■
Walk, never run.
■
The small blade fitted to the cutting attachment guard
is designed to trim the new extended line to the correct
length for safe and optimum performance. It is very
sharp; do not touch it, particularly when cleaning the
product.
■
Always ensure that ventilation openings are kept clear
of debris.
■
Before use and after any impact, check that there are
no damaged parts. Examine the cutting means for signs
of cracking or other damage. A defective switch or any
part that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorised service facility.
■
Make sure the head attachment is properly installed
and securely fastened.
■
Make sure all guards, deflectors, handles, bolts, and
fasteners are properly and securely attached.
■
Do not modify the product in any way. This may
increase the risk of injury to yourself or others.
■
Use only the manufacturer's replacement line in the
cutting head. Do not use any other cutting attachment.
■
Never use the product without the cutting attachment
guard in place and in good condition.
■
Maintain a firm grip on both handles while trimming.
Keep string head below waist level. Never cut with
the string head located over 76 cm or more above the
ground.
BRUSHCUTTER SAFETY WARNINGS
■
In addition to the above rules, these additional
instructions are appropriate when using the product in
brushcutter mode.
■
Use heavy-duty gloves while installing or removing the
blades, they have sharp edges.
■
Do not attempt to touch or stop the blade when it is
rotating.
■
A moving blade can cause severe injury. Maintain
proper control of the product with both hands until the
blade has completely stopped rotating.
■
Replace any blade that has been damaged. Always
make sure the blade is installed correctly and securely
fastened before each use.
■
Use only the manufacturer's replacement Tri-Arc™
blade. Do not use any other cutting attachment.

■
Never cut any material over 13 mm diameter.
■
Your brushcutter is fitted with a harness. Carefully
adjust the harness to fit comfortably and help to support
the weight of the product at your right side.
■
Identify the quick release mechanism and practice using
it before you start using the product. Its correct use may
prevent serious injury in case of an emergency. Never
wear additional clothing over the harness or otherwise
restrict access to the quick release mechanism.
■
Cover the blade with the blade protector before storing
the product, or during transportation. Always remove
the blade protector before using the product. If not
removed, the blade protector could become a thrown
object as the blade begins to turn.
■
Exercise extreme caution when using the blade with
the product. Blade thrust is the reaction that may occur
when the spinning blade contacts anything it cannot
cut. This contact may cause the blade to stop for an
instant, and suddenly "thrust" the product away from the
object that was hit. This reaction can be violent enough
to cause the operator to lose control of the product.
Blade thrust may 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.
■
For cutting ease and safety, approach the weeds being
cut from the right to the left. In the event an unexpected
object or woody stock is encountered, this practice
could minimise the blade thrust reaction. Both hands
must be used at all times to control the product.
