BRUSHCUTTER SAFETY
•
The blade shield must always be in place while operating the unit.
•
Always use the shoulder harness when operating a brushcutter.
•
Always keep the handle between the operator and the blade
during operation.
•
Never operate the unit with the blade above waist level.
•
To avoid violent kickback, do not attempt to cut material larger
than 1/2 inch (1.27 cm) in diameter.
•
Blade thrust may occur when the spinning blade contacts an
object that it does not immediately cut. Blade thrust can be
violent enough to propel the unit and/or operator in any
direction, possibly causing a loss of control. 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.
•
The blade will continue to spin after the unit is turned off. A
coasting blade can cause serious injury. Maintain control of the
unit until all moving parts have stopped.
•
Do not sharpen the blade. Sharpening the blade can cause the
tip of the blade to break off while in use. This can result in severe
personal injury. Replace the blade if it is dull.
•
Do not operate the unit with a bent, cracked or dull blade.
Replace bent, cracked or dull blades.
•
Do not use the blade for edging; severe personal injury to
yourself or others may occur.
•
The blade may become very sharp from use. Always wear heavy
gloves when handling, replacing or cleaning the blade.
