WARNING
Never operate your power tool if it is
damaged, improperly adjusted or
maintained, or not completely or
securely assembled.
WARNING
Do not attach any cutting attachment to
a unit without proper installation of all
required parts. Failure to use the proper
parts may cause the blade or head to fly
off and seriously injure the operator or
bystanders.
WARNING
The cutting attachment must be properly
tightened and in safe operating
condition. Inspect for loose parts (nuts,
screws, etc.) and for cracked or
damaged heads or cracked, bent,
warped or damaged blades. Replace
damaged heads or blades before using
the power tool. Always keep blades
sharp.
Keep the handles clean and dry at all
times; it is particularly important to keep
them free of moisture, pitch, oil, fuel mix,
grease or resin in order for you to
maintain a firm grip and properly control
your power tool.
WARNING
Check that the spark plug boot is
securely mounted on the spark plug – a
loose boot may cause arcing that could
ignite combustible fumes and cause a
fire.

WARNING
To reduce the risk
of personal injury
to the operator
from blade or line
contact and
thrown objects,
make sure your
unit is equipped
with the proper
deflector, limit stop
and harness for
the type of cutting
attachment being
used (see chart in
the chapter on
"Approved Combi-
nations of Cutting
Attachment,
Deflector, Limit
Stop and
Harness").
As can be seen in that chart, some
cutting attachments may require you to
change your deflector, limit stop and / or
harness.
Keep the deflector (and the attached
skirt where appropriate) adjusted
properly at all times (see chapters on
"Mounting the Deflector" and "Mounting
the Cutting Attachment" of your
instruction manual).

Arrows on the deflector (A) and limit
stop (B) (as seen from the underside)
show the correct direction of rotation of
the cutting attachment. When viewed
from above, however, the cutting
attachment rotates counterclockwise.
Adjust carrying harness and hand grip to
suit your size before starting work. The
machine should be properly balanced as
specified in your instruction manual for
proper control and less fatigue in
operation. To be better prepared in case
of an emergency, practice releasing the
unit from the harness as quickly as
possible.
Starting
Start the engine at least 10 feet (3 m)
from the fueling spot, outdoors only.
For specific starting instructions, see the
appropriate section of your manual.
Place the power tool on firm ground or
