a long-sleeve shirt. Do not wear loose clothing,
jewelry, short pants, sandals, or go barefoot. Secure
hair so it is above shoulder level.
3. Condition of Unit Before Use
Inspect unit before each use. Replace damaged parts.
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.
The handles shall be mounted in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions. Do not attach any blade
to a unit without proper installation of all required
parts. Failure to use the proper parts can cause the
blade to fly off and seriously injure the operator and/
or bystanders. Discard blades that are bent, warped,
cracked, broken, or damaged in any way. Use a sharp
blade. A dull blade is more likely to snag and thrust.
4. Proper Stance
Keep firm footing and balance. Do not over-reach.
Keep cutting attachment below waist level. Keep all
parts of your body away from the rotating cutting
attachment.
5. Work Area
Clear the area to be cut before each use. Remove all
objects such as rocks, broken glass, nails, wire, or
string, which can be thrown or become entangled in
the cutting attachment.
6. Stopping the Unit
A coasting blade can cause injury while it continues
to spin after the appliance is stopped. Maintain
proper control until the blade has completely
stopped rotating. When the unit is turned off, make
sure the cutting attachment has stopped before
servicing, cleaning or removing material from the
gardening appliance and before the unit is set down.
7. Blade Thrust Danger
Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade
contacts an object that it does not immediately cut.
Blade thrust can be violent enough to cause the unit
and/or operator to be propelled in any direction, and
possibly lose control of the unit.
Blade thrust can occur without warning if the blade
snags, stalls or binds.
Blade thrust is more likely to occur in areas where it
is difficult to see the material being cut.
